Mind Science Foundation

Founded in 1958 by Tom Slick, "The Mind Science Foundation is dedicated to solving one of the major questions of modern science - the puzzle of human consciousness - by funding leading-edge research and educational programs focused on the mind, brain and human consciousness, in order to improve the human condition."

"The Mind Science Foundation has sponsored groundbreaking brain imaging research on TV Violence and Children; the seminal 2003 MIT conference with the Dalai Lama, "Investigating the Mind"; lectures by scientific luminaries from Jonas Salk to Deepak Chopra and Jane Goodall; and the annual Tom Slick Research Awards in Consciousness for scientists and physicians conducting innovative research focused on the mind/brain and human consciousness."
