and surrounding technological, scientific and pharmaceutical industries.

BIC Director Nelson Cowan is studying language and working memory and will use the MRI to investigate the theory that there are parts of the brain that integrate memories from all sensory modalities. The MU scientist also is studying if there is one central area where all information is kept in the brain.

"Research of this kind is a type of philosophy. You're learning about human consciousness, and the more people understand about the human mind, the better they understand each other," Cowan said.
