Grant History
Think Tanks

International Society for Contemplative Research

Linda Carlson, Amishi Jha, Erin McCarthy, Harold Roth, Zindel Segal, David Vago, Fadel Zeidan
Topics: Body-based Practices | Brain & Cognitive Science | Compassion & Empathy | Contemplative Wisdom | Education | Environment | Interconnection | Mental Health | Mindfulness | Self & Other | Social Change | Stress & Resilience

In the last twenty years, a sharp increase in contemplative research has created the need for an academic home for interdisciplinary scholarship, community, dialogue, and collaboration. This special Think Tank grant goes to a multidisciplinary group of leading contemplative researchers to begin the development of a new professional society for the field. This is a momentous turning point in the history of contemplative research, and Mind & Life is delighted to support its first steps with a Think Tank grant.
