Behind the Organic-Industrial Complex
Published: May 13, 2001
(Page 7 of 9)
One of the most striking ways Small Planet Foods is changing the system is by helping conventional farms convert a portion of their acreage to organic. Several thousand acres of American farmland are now organic as a result of the company's efforts, which go well beyond offering contracts to providing instruction and even management. Kahn has helped to prove to the skeptical that organic -- dismissed as "hippie farming" not very long ago -- can work on a large scale. The environmental benefits of this educational process shouldn't be underestimated. And yet the industrialization of organic comes at a price. The most obvious is consolidation: today five giant farms control fully one-half of the $400 million organic produce market in California. Partly as a result, the price premium for organic crops is shrinking. This is all to the good for expanding organic's market beyond yuppies, but it is crushing many of the small farmers for whom organic has represented a profitable niche, a way out of the cheap-food economics that has ravaged American farming over the last few decades. Indeed, many of the small farmers present at the creation of organic agriculture today find themselves struggling to compete against the larger players, as the familiar, dismal history of American agriculture begins to repeat itself in the organic sector.
This has opened up a gulf in the movement between Big and Little Organic and convinced many of the movement's founders that the time has come to move "beyond organic" -- to raise the bar on American agriculture yet again. Some of these innovating farmers want to stress fair labor standards, others quality or growing exclusively for local markets. In Maine, Eliot Coleman has pioneered a sophisticated market garden entirely under plastic, to supply his "food shed" with local produce all winter long; even in January his solar-heated farm beats California on freshness and quality, if not price. In Virginia, Joel Salatin has developed an ingenious self-sufficient rotation of grass-fed livestock: cattle, chickens and rabbits that take turns eating, and feeding, the same small pasture. There are hundreds of these "beyond organic" farmers springing up now around the country. The fact is, however, that the word "organic" -- having entered the vocabulary of both agribusiness and government -- is no longer these farmers' to redefine. Coleman and Salatin, both of whom reject the U.S.D.A. organic label, are searching for new words to describe what it is they're doing. Michael Ableman, a "beyond organic" farmer near Santa Barbara, Calif., says: "We may have to give up on the word 'organic,' leave it to the Gene Kahns of the world. To be honest, I'm not sure I want the association, because what I'm doing on my farm is not just substituting materials."
Not long ago at a conference on organic agriculture, a corporate organic farmer suggested to a family farmer struggling to survive in the competitive world of industrial organic agriculture that he "should really try to develop a niche to distinguish yourself in the market." The small farmer replied: "I believe I developed that niche 20 years ago. It's called 'organic.' And now you're sitting on it."
V. Gene Kahn Visits the Mothership
n March, I accompanied Gene Kahn on one of his monthly visits to the General Mills headquarters, a grassy corporate campus strewn with modern sculptures in the suburbs outside Minneapolis. In deference to Fortune 500 etiquette, I put on a suit and tie but quickly realized I was overdressed: Kahn had on his usual khakis and a denim work shirt embroidered with a bright red Muir Glen tomato. When I said something, Kahn told me he makes a point of not changing his clothes when he goes to Minneapolis. I get it: an organic farmer in an embroidered work shirt is part of what General Mills was acquiring when it acquired Small Planet Foods. Yet this particular organic farmer is presumably a far sight wealthier than most of his new corporate colleagues: when General Mills bought Small Planet Foods for an estimated $70 million, Kahn still owned 10 percent of the company.
Together, Kahn and I toured General Mills's Bell Technical Center, a sprawling research-and-development facility where some 900 food scientists, chemists, industrial designers and nutritionists dream up and design both the near- and long-term future of American food. This was Kahn's first visit to the facility, and as we moved from lab to lab, I could see his boyish enthusiasm mounting as he collected new ideas and business cards.
In the packaging-design lab, even before Arne Brauner could finish explaining how he engineered the boxes, bowls and cups in which General Mills sells its products, Kahn asked him, "Has there ever been a completely edible packaging for food?" Brauner rubbed his chin for a moment.
"The sausage. That was probably the first."
Kahn now told him about the bowl in which Cascadian Farm sold its frozen entrees. Plastic would have turned off the organic consumer, he explained, so they were using coated paperboard, which isn't readily recyclable. Would it be possible, Kahn wondered, to make a microwaveable bowl out of biodegradable food starch? Brauner said he had heard about a cornstarch clamshell for fast-food burgers and offered to look into it. Kahn took his card.

Religious intolerance, so terrible and deadly in its recent manifestations, is nothing new. In fact, until after the eighteenth century, Christianity was perhaps the most intolerant of all the great world religions. How Christian Europe and the West went from this extreme to their present universal belief in religious toleration is the momentous story fully told for the first time in this timely and important book by a leading historian of early modern Europe.
Perez Zagorin takes readers to a time when both the Catholic Church and the main new Protestant denominations embraced a policy of endorsing religious persecution, coercing unity, and, with the state's help, mercilessly crushing dissent and heresy. This position had its roots in certain intellectual and religious traditions, which Zagorin traces before showing how out of the same traditions came the beginnings of pluralism in the West. Here we see how sixteenth- and seventeenth-century thinkers--writing from religious, theological, and philosophical perspectives--contributed far more than did political expediency or the growth of religious skepticism to advance the cause of toleration. Reading these thinkers--from Erasmus and Sir Thomas More to John Milton and John Locke, among others--Zagorin brings to light a common, if unexpected, thread: concern for the spiritual welfare of religion itself weighed more in the defense of toleration than did any secular or pragmatic arguments. His book--which ranges from England through the Netherlands, the post-1685 Huguenot Diaspora, and the American Colonies--also exposes a close connection between toleration and religious freedom.
A far-reaching and incisive discussion of the major writers, thinkers, and controversies responsible for the emergence of religious tolerance in Western society--from the Enlightenment through the United Nations' Universal Declaration of Human Rights--this original and richly nuanced work constitutes an essential chapter in the intellectual history of the modern world.

Pet Ownership
Desex your pet!
Hurry... available to all City of Parramatta Council residents until funds exhausted.
Desexing reduces pet over population & health risks such as cancers. It also leads to behavioural improvements & heavily discounted life-time registration fees!
Price to desex any cat is $30 and for dogs under 30kgs $100 and dogs over $150. There is a list of participating vets that residents can choose from to take up the offer. Residents simply call any of the phone numbers listed and they will be sent a subsidised desexing voucher to use at the applicable vet.
Funding is partly provided by the OLG and is limited so this offer only valid til funds exhausted.
Don't take the risk... update the microchip!
Unfortunately, many cats and dogs still end up in the Animal Holding Facility even though they are microchipped. The reason for this is the information within the microchip is outdated so we cannot find their owner to return them home. As a pet owner you must notify Council every time;
- You change address and/or contact details
- You give away or sell your pet including the details of the new owner
- Your pet is missing and when it is found again
- Your pet is deceased
Failing to update your pet's microchip information can result in an on the spot penalty of $165.
Avoid losing your pet and paying fines by updating your pet's information now!
Sold or rehomed your pet? Complete and print a change of owner form or email email@example.com for a copy to be mailed to you.

Daniel Pietro is now director of cybersecurity and technology at DOD's CIO office. (LinkedIn profile picture)
Daniel Prieto will join the Defense Department as a top cybersecurity official.
Prieto, who recently served as vice president of IBM's public sector global business services, was appointed to the Senior Executive Service and named director of cybersecurity and technology at DOD's CIO office in Washington. Defense Secretary Chuck Hagel announced his appointment on Aug. 20.
The new director is no stranger to cybersecurity policy: He also has been a senior associate in the Center for Strategic and International Studies' homeland security and counterterrorism program since 2010. Prior to that, Prieto was research director at Harvard's Kennedy School of Government's Homeland Security Partnership Initiative. He also served as a professional staff member on the House's select committee on homeland security, according to his LinkedIn bio.
Prieto "has worked for two decades in the private sector, academia, and government at the intersection of technology, public policy, and national and homeland security issues," his CSIS bio states. Between 2002 and 2007, he has held various fellowship appointments at the Center for National Policy, the Council on Foreign Relations, the Kennedy School of Government, Stanford University's Center for International Security and Cooperation and George Washington University.
Prieto also has held positions at America Online and J.P. Morgan., and is a member of the Aspen Homeland Security Group, co-founder and co-director of the American Bar Association's Cybersecurity Working Group, and a member of the Committee on Law and Justice of the National Academy of Sciences, according to the Center for National Policy.
Earlier this summer, Prieto wrote about the evolution of the intelligence community and its use of technology in a piece for Foreign Policy.

Loss of Lives in Clinical Trials...
From our August issue: Clinical-Style Validation,...
Co-Sourcing Improves Pharmaceutical Laboratory Productivity
Keep the Opportunities, Lose the Opportunists
Many challenges confront researchers attempting to express recombinant proteins. Post-translational modifications, quantity produced, and recapitulating function are chief among them. These and other issues will be discussed at CHI's "Difficult to Express Proteins" conference to be held later this month. Cutting-edge solutions include new ways to optimize gene sequences, novel fusion proteins or tags, and enhancements to functional assays for membrane proteins.
Many lines of evidence have demonstrated that changing the protein coding sequence of a gene can dramatically affect its expression. According to Mark Welch, Ph.D., director of gene design at DNA2.0, "the key is to know which codons to change. Although researchers previously had to isolate and clone genes of interest, we can now tailor-make genes synthetically. This allows us to optimize genes based upon what organism will be used for expression."
Dr. Welch notes that the field is currently lacking systematic studies showing what gene characteristics are optimal. "There's a lot of protein-expression folklore involved in design principles, yet also an absence of uniform experimental data. There are a confounding number of variables among examples in the literature that differ in the proteins expressed, vectors, host strains, etc. In each example you generally are presented with only two data points, a natural gene and a synthetic version. There has been no reliable way to combine results from these often contradictory experiments."
To address this issue, DNA2.0 embarked on a detailed analysis in which it designed and independently synthesized about 40 genes each for two proteins, a DNA polymerase, and a single chain antibody. Each set systematically sampled codon usage and other variables thought relevant to protein expression.
"We found that synonymous codon variation produced more than a 40-fold difference in expression levels. We identified sequence characteristics that correlated with expression by combining multivariate regression methods along with genetic algorithms. Contrary to popular assumptions, we found that codon preferences did not correlate with the codon bias found in natural host genes."
Dr. Welch suggests that DNA2.0's strategy can be used in any expression system. It already has been successfully applied to expression in mammalian, yeast, plant, and fungal hosts. "Systematic variation and modeling provide a more reliable way to improve gene design for any host. In every study we've obtained dramatic improvements relative to prior optimization strategies. This adds great value to our genes, particularly for clients expressing high-value proteins where even a small boost in expression can mean considerable savings in time and money."

MDMA (commonly known as the empathogen "ecstasy") is classified as a Schedule 1 drug, which is reserved for compounds with no accepted medical use and a high abuse potential. Two researchers from Stanford, however, call for a rigorous scientific exploration of MDMA's effects to identify precisely how the drug works, the data from which could be used to develop therapeutic compounds.Do you agree that ecstasy should be studied for its potential therapeutic benefits?

Why do our cell's power plants have their own DNA? It's one of the big mysteries of cell biology.
Why do mitochondria—the oval-shaped structures that power our cells—have their own DNA, and why have they kept it when the cell itself has plenty of its own genetic material? A new study may have found an answer. Scientists think that mitochondria were once independent single-celled organisms until, more than a billion years ago, they were swallowed by larger cells. Instead of being digested, they settled down and developed a mutually beneficial relationship developed with their hosts that eventually enabled the rise of more complex life, like today's plants and animals. Over the years, the mitochondrial genome has shrunk. Scientists have tossed around some ideas, but there haven't been hard data to pick one over another. "Keeping those genes locally in the mitochondria gives the cell a way to individually control mitochondria," Johnston says, because pivotal proteins are created in the mitochondria themselves.

How do we smell? - Rose Eveleth. All you ever wanted to know about Germs. What would happen to your body without water? Muscular System: Facts, Functions & Diseases. While most people associate muscles with strength, they do more than assist in lifting heavy objects.
The 650 muscles in the body not only support movement — controlling walking, talking, sitting, standing, eating and other daily functions that people consciously perform — but also help to maintain posture and circulate blood and other substances throughout the body, among other functions. Muscles are often associated with activities of the legs, arms and other appendages, but muscles also produce more subtle movements, such as facial expressions, eye movements and respiration, according to the National Institutes of Health (NIH).
Three types of muscles The muscular system can be broken down into three types of muscles: skeletal, smooth and cardiac, according to the NIH. Skeletal muscles are the only voluntary muscle tissue in the human body and control every action that a person consciously performs. Muscle shapes Size can be used to differentiate similar muscles in the same region. Nervous System: Facts, Function & Diseases. The nervous system is a complex collection of nerves and specialized cells known as neurons that transmit signals between different parts of the body.
Vertebrates — animals with backbones and spinal columns — have central and peripheral nervous systems. The central nervous system is made up of the brain, spinal cord and retina.

The basic parts of the human body are the head, neck, torso, arms and legs. Body systems Our bodies consist of a number of biological systems that carry out specific functions necessary for everyday living. Skin: Facts, Diseases & Conditions. While it may not immediately come to mind when asked to name the body's major organs, the integumentary system, or skin, is its largest organ.
It comprises the skin as well as hair and nails, which are appendages of the skin. In humans, this system accounts for about 15 percent of total body weight. Urinary System: Facts, Functions & Diseases. The urinary system – also known as the renal system – produces, stores and eliminates urine, the fluid waste excreted by the kidneys.
The urinary system includes two kidneys, two ureters, the bladder, two sphincter muscles and the urethra. Description of the urinary system The urinary system works with the lungs, skin and intestines to maintain the balance of chemicals and water in the body. Adults eliminate about a quart and a half (1.42 liters) of urine each day, depending on the amount of fluid consumed and fluid lost through perspiring and breathing. Certain types of medications, such as diuretics that are sometimes used to treat high blood pressure, can also affect the amount of urine a person produces and eliminates. Respiratory System: Facts, Function and Diseases.
The human respiratory system is a series of organs responsible for taking in oxygen and expelling carbon dioxide.
The primary organs of the respiratory system are lungs, which carry out this exchange of gases as we breathe. Red blood cells collect the oxygen from the lungs and carry it to the parts of the body where it is needed, according to the American Lung Association. During the process, the red blood cells collect the carbon dioxide and transport it back to the lungs, where it leaves the body when we exhale. The human body needs oxygen to sustain itself. A decrease in oxygen is known as hypoxia and a complete lack of oxygen is known as anoxia and, according to MedLine Plus. Skeletal System: Facts, Function & Diseases. The adult human skeletal system consists of 206 bones, as well as a network of tendons, ligaments and cartilage that connects them.
The skeletal system performs vital functions — support, movement, protection, blood cell production, calcium storage and endocrine regulation — that enable us to move through our daily lives. Animals with internal skeletons made of bone, called vertebrates, are actually the minority, as 98 percent of all animals are invertebrates, meaning they do not have internal skeletons or backbones. Human infants are born with 300 to 350 bones, some of which fuse together as the body develops. Reproductive System: Facts, Functions and Diseases. The reproductive system is a collection of organs that work together for the purpose of producing a new life.
Scientists argue that the reproductive system is among the most important systems in the entire body. Without the ability to reproduce, a species dies. Lymphatic System: Facts, Functions & Diseases. Immune System: Diseases, Disorders & Function. Endocrine System: Facts, Functions and Diseases. Digestive System: Facts, Function & Diseases. The human digestive system is a series of organs that converts food into essential nutrients that are absorbed into the body and moves the unused waste material out of the body.
It is essential to good health because if the digestive system shuts down, the body cannot be nourished or rid itself of waste. Description of the digestive system The digestive tract, also known as the gastrointestinal (GI) tract, starts at the mouth, continues to the esophagus, stomach, small intestine, large intestine (commonly referred to as the colon) and rectum, and ends at the anus. The entire system — from mouth to anus — is about 30 feet (9 meters) long. CellCraft. Six myths about vaccination – and why they're wrong.
A pear has 600 times more formaldehyde in it than a vaccine does, writes Rachael Dunlop. Image: Oksana Kuzmina/Shutterstock Recently released government figures show levels of childhood vaccination have fallen to dangerously low levels in some areas of Australia, resulting in some corners of the media claiming re-ignition of "the vaccine debate". You can check how your postcode rates here.
Well, scientifically, there's no debate. In combination with clean water and sanitation, vaccines are one of the most effective public health measures ever introduced, saving millions of lives every year. Those who claim there is a "debate" will cite a series of canards designed to scare people away from vaccinating, but, if you're not familiar with their claims, you could easily be convinced by anti-vaccine rhetoric.
So what is true and what is not? Let's address just a few of the common vaccine myths and explain why they're wrong. 1. 2. 3. 4. 5. 6. Melting Glaciers Liberate Ancient Microbes.

(LOS ANGELES, CA) -- Noted adult industry attorney Gregory Piccionelli has written an open letter to the adult industry calling for support of the Association of Sites Advocating Child Protection (ASACP).
The letter discusses the current changes coming to DC with President-elect Barack Obama. Piccionelli states in the letter that, ''It is very unlikely that either the Obama administration or the current congress will engage moral activism in any manner resembling what weve seen under the Bush Administration. But while federal obscenity and 2257 prosecutions are far less likely under Obama that they have been under Bush, there is a greater likelihood that congress and the new administration will revisit the issue of how to best protect children from the exposure to adult content.''
Piccionelli goes on the discuss how this is ''a golden opportunity for change'' and that ''no adult industry organization is better positioned than ASACP to credibly advance the idea that government actions regarding sexual content should focus exclusively on effective protection of children.''
''The adult industry completely funds our ability to operate our child pornography reporting hotline, offer the Restricted to Adults RTA website label free of charge, and makes it possible for us to go to DC and let lawmakers know what the adult industry is doing to protect children,'' stated ASACP CEO Joan Irvine. ''During these troubling economic times we have seen a drop in sponsorship making it more difficult to maintain our efforts in DC since our primary mission is to run a child pornography reporting hotline, provide the RTA, and develop new technology for child protection. We would like to thank Greg Piccionelli for writing this letter and letting the industry know exactly how important it is to support ASACP.''
The entire letter can be read at: http://ASACP.org/Greg_Piccionelli_Letter_120308.pdf
Mr. Piccionelli has provided support to ASACP since 2002, including valuable assistance in preparation for the rollout of the RTA website labeling initiative in 2006. A co-founder of pioneering Los Angeles-based intellectual property and entertainment law firm Piccionelli & Sarno, Mr. Piccionelli is one of the nation's most experienced and respected Internet and adult entertainment attorneys. He received the ASACP Service Recognition Award in 2006.
Founded in 1996, the Association of Sites Advocating Child Protection (ASACP) is a non-profit organization dedicated to eliminating child pornography from the Internet. ASACP battles child pornography through its Cp reporting hotline, and by organizing the efforts of the online adult industry to combat the heinous crime of child sexual abuse. ASACP also works to help parents prevent children from viewing age-inappropriate material online. For more information, go to www.ASACP.org and www.RTAlabel.org.

(LEHIGH VALLEY, PA) -- AmaVoyeur releases the next generation of the AmaWare XP franchise, their adult online software application, with huge praise from the public and media. AmaVoyeur announces the release of AmaWare XP Version 3.0, which gives the adult consumer all they need in the perfect world of online pornography.
AmaWare XP Version 3.0 now has the look and feel of the popular, mainstream online community software America Online (AOL), which makes AmaWare XP Version 3.0 the "perfect companion" for existing AOL members. With the new interface change, it is now much easier to navigate. You do not need AOL to use AmaWare XP; any internet provider will be sufficient.
AmaWare XP Version 3.0 allows safe and secure surfing. What you look at on AmaWare XP, stays on AmaWare XP. This means no messy adult history trails for your spouse or kids to view. If you do not have to worry about this, you may save files to your hard drive.
To grow and succeed in any Internet related industry, it is important to break out new business strategies before your competition. AmaWareXP Version 3.0 is patented, proprietary software that has been missing from the adult online community. If tomorrow there would be a pornography ban on the Internet for Adult Websites, AmaWareXP would be unaffected and would continue to provide a safe place for the user to enjoy adult content, since it is a private network.
Once this strategically planned software is installed, the user will have immediate access to everything that takes the home user hours upon hours to search, find, download and save. AmaWareXP Version 3.0 is also about the speed and access to a virtual library of adult content. There is about a 40% faster speed difference from version 2.0 to 3.0. AmaVoyeur has over 2,000,000 pictures, videos, adult news articles and adult industry exclusive content that the user cannot find anywhere on the Internet is compressed and searchable in seconds only through the software.
AmaWare XP Version 3.0 is also non-traceable and has a panic button to shutdown the program with one simple click and the user has to enter their password for the software to restart. This feature ensures that confidentiality and integrity of the user is protected and the nuisance pop-ups that often are associated with pornographic websites that often prevent the user to easily shut down are eliminated.
AmaWare XP technology was designed based on the architecture of America Online's community. This latest addition was completely reprogrammed using the Microsoft .Net framework to provide more solid stability and security. AmaWare XP Version 3.0 does not contain ad ware or spyware and was designed to be a fun and safe place to discuss and explore sexual interests and issues in a friendly, easy-to-use, dignified and sophisticated environment.
AmaWare XP allows adult members to communicate with other adults via chat, instant messaging, video conferencing, and message boards just to name a few. With this new version of AmaWare XP, you can now send instant messages to your AOL, ICQ, MSN and Yahoo! friends and they will never know that they are coming through an adult software package. We have also added a voice mail service, which allows you to personalize your messages to other members by using your own voice.
AmaWare XP Version 3.0 encourages members to share personal images and movies. "My Images" and "My Movies" are features in AmaWare XP, which allows members to use their webcam or import pictures or movies from their hard drive to other members. "My Images" or "My Movies" never saves the content to the end users hard drive, so confidentiality and privacy of online activity is protected and non-traceable.
AmaVoyeur has collaborated with some of the best in the adult business. This ensures that the user will never have to be concerned with websites that go out of business or misrepresent their product lines.

These are great shoes. They have a very durable and dressy casual look. My son has big wide feet and was hard to slide on until broken in. I read a disclaimer from Clarks that the shoes run big and to size down a size. I did half a size down but wish that I would not have because the shoes just fit him right and will not have any space to grow.

These are the most durable shoes that I have ever purchased for my kids. My son tears through shoes in two months, but we've had the same pair of desert boots going on a year now and I will definitely purchase the next size up when he out grows these. They look great on my daughter as well. Well worth the price tag!

During my PhD project I initiated my three major lines of research that I have continued ever since: 1) Theory and philosophy of consciousness, 2) Neural mechanisms of consciousness, and 3) Altered states of consciousness.
Main area of research
Consciousness research is a new multidisciplinary field of science that combines philosophy, psychology, and cognitive neuroscience in an attempt to understand what consciousness is, how it could be measured and studied scientifically, and what the biological and neural mechanisms underlying or enabling consciousness are. The major lines of my own research on consciousness are the following: 1) Theories of consciousness, 2) The cognitive and neural mechanisms of visual consciousness, and 3) Altered states of consciousness, in particular dreaming, hypnosis, and anesthesia.

I have recently directed two research projects (both were funded by the Academy of Finland): "Neurophilosophy of Consciousness" (2006-2010) and "Neuroscience of Brainreading" (2008-2011). In these projects, we studied the neural mechanisms (using EEG and PET) of altered states of consciousness (especially dreaming) and the borderline between consciousness and the unconscious state by manipulating consciousness with anesthetic agents. Furthermore, I am currently supervising several PhD projects that are due to be finished during the next couple of years: Two on the neural mechanisms of visual consciousness, using EEG and neuronavigated TMS (PhD students Niina Salminen-Vaparanta and Henry Railo), and three on sleep, dreaming, nightmares, and other altered states (PhD students Valdas Noreika, Pilleriin Sikka, and Nils Sandman).
I started my research career by studying the cognitive deficits of neuropsychological patients (e.g. Parkinson's disease, Alzheimer's disease, Multiple Sclerosis) in the early 1990's at the Department of Neurology, University of Turku, Finland. Then I moved on to the Department of Philosophy and there started my PhD project on consciousness, which was the topic is had been interested in for years. During my PhD project I initiated my three major lines of research that I have continued ever since: 1) Theory and philosophy of consciousness, 2) Neural mechanisms of consciousness, and 3) Altered states of consciousness.
My PhD project was finished in 1995, after which I continued as a post-doctoral fellow, and started to build my own research group, called the Consciousness Research Group, at the Center for Cognitive Neuroscience, University of Turku, Finland. In my post-doctoral research, I studied the content and function of dreaming, eventually leading to the publication of the Threat-Simulation Theory of dreaming in 2000 in the journal Behavioral and Brain Sciences, and also leading to the PhD project of Katja Valli on the empirical testing of this theory, published in 2008. We recently reviewed this research in our paper in the American Journal of Psychology, 2009.
I also supervised the PhD project of Sakari Kallio on hypnosis as an altered state of consciousness, published in 2003. Together with docent Mika Koivisto, we have studied the EEG correlates of visual consciousness and attention since 2003. This has led, in a series of published studies, to the discovery of the Visual Awareness Negativity (VAN), a novel ERP correlate of phenomenal visual consciousness. We recently summarized and reviewed this research in our paper in Neuroscience and Biobehavioral Reviews in 2010.
My theoretical and philosophical approach to consciousness is called "biological realism" and I take consciousness to be a higher level of biological organization in the brain. Consciousness presents itself to us in our subjective experiences as a phenomenal world-simulation that we take to be the "real" world in both dreaming and wakefulness. My philosophy and theory of consciousness is presented and defended in my major theoretical monograph Inner Presence: Consciousness as a Biological Phenomenon (MIT Press 2006; paperback 2009).
Furthermore, I have systematically reviewed and evaluated the science of consciousness recently in another book Consciousness, The Science of Subjectivity (Psychology Press, 2010), which is aimed for students of consciousness research. Since 1998, I have also continuously served as one of the editors of the leading peer-reviewed journal in consciousness research, Consciousness and Cognition (Elsevier). My future plans include further studies on visual consciousness, dreaming, anesthesia, and theories of consciousness, which aim to elucidate some of the crucial theoretical questions about the nature and function of consciousness.
