The 12/4 conference sounds fascinating, though you are right to note that Palo Alto is a bit of a jump from Houston. I hope the website will indicate some of the speakers and specific topics at some point . . . I look forward to hearing from you.

Thanks for your comment. I would love to chat about your dissertation some time as it sounds quite interesting. Look out for an email from me. Also, while I realize it is quite a jaunt from UT, Stanford Law School is putting on a conference on 12/4 entitled, "Neuroimaging, Pain and the Law." It is open to the public. http://www.law.stanford.edu/calendar/details/2188/Neuroimaging%2C%20Pain%2C%20and%20the%20Law/ Take care, T Small world indeed! Thanks for your comment.

FYI, my forthcoming dissertation is on the undertreatment of pain and the history of objectivity. There will also be an important component of the project which will discuss, tracking Searle, the errors I think a lot of stakeholders make in conceiving of subjectivity, consciousness, and mind in context of pain, as well as a neuroethics angle (related to fMRI studies on pain). Talk about a small world -- I've had the privilege of discussing with Amanda some of her work related to violence and criminal law, but had no idea she was also working on pain. If you're interested in hearing more about my work, please feel free to email me, or ask Emily Murphy, as I also had a chance to sit down with her over a year ago and discuss some of my conceptions and arguments related to pain (which center on the importance of subjectivity). Anyway, great post and great topic -- though I'm biased. --Daniel Goldberg www.medhumanities.org Tenielle,
