Speakers: Ned Block (NYU)\, Bob Kentridge (Durham)\, Catherine Tallon-Baudry \;(UPMC)\, James Stazicker (Reading).

Whilst consciousness has seemed to many to be so utterly baffling that it \;was best left to philosophers to address\, attention has until recently \;been studied almost exclusively by the empirical sciences and (with a few \;exceptions) has not really been addressed by philosophers. Now this is \;changing\, and an interesting and fruitful dialogue has recently opened up \;between philosophers and empirical scientists.

All of these researchers are turning their efforts toward understanding \;consciousness and attention together\, rather than attempting to tackle \;them separately. It is this interdisciplinary dialogue that this \;conference hopes to contribute to.
