[sci.misc] interdisciplinary centers

dean@mind.UUCP (Dean Radin) (12/15/87)

I am Director of the Human Information Processing Group at Princeton
University.  We are a multidepartment effort supporting collaborate research
across the disciplines of social psychology, philosophy, computational
neuroscience, artificial intelligence, mechanical and civil engineering, 
color graphics, psycholinguistics, etc.

I am creating a mailing list of like-minded groups with access to usenet 
to explore the possibility of future multi-lab collaborations or 
co-sponsored conferences.

If you know of, or are located at, an academic or industrial site engaged 
in multi- or interdisciplinary research on human-machine interaction,
or any form of broadly-defined cognitive/computer science, please send email
to ...princeton!mind!dean (i.e., dean@mind.UUCP).  Thanks.
