Psicología y Neurociencia. Y viceversa / Psychology and Neuroscience. Viceversa

Until the last decades of the 20th century, the scientific disciplines of psychology and neuroscience developed independently; often with indifferent, if not openly hostile, looks at each other due to the apparent disparate and irreconcilable principles on which each of them is founded. In the mid-80s of the last century, however, this situation began to change drastically with the advent of cognitive neuroscience, a new field of purely interdisciplinary research in which psychology and neuroscience converge inexorably and which has imposed itself in both fields of knowledge. This convergence has opened a vast and fruitful field of research, which increases and enriches the contributions of each of these disciplines separately to previously unsuspected limits.

The conference aims to reflect on some relevant achievements reached by the scientific confluence between psychology and neuroscience in research with human subjects.
