The third Symposium of the Foundation for Life Sciences was held in
February 1983 at the Newport Inn Conference Centre in Sydney. It
was direced towards an understanding of the molecular
neuropathology of muscle and nerve under a wide variety of
conditions that may be induced by external agents or genetic
lesions. The first session on experimental neurology explored the
processes involved in maintenance of nerve and muscle function.
This included many papers on myelination, studies on immune
reactions affecting nerves, on synapses, and on neuronal
development. This section was expanded to explore the control of
muscle function in nerves, including a discussion on cross
reinnervation. Toxic models of disease in the nervous system were
then discussed, including pathological states induced by physical
agents such as kainic acid, diphtheria toxin, and IDPN. A new
dimension was added to the Symposium when for the first time
psychologists participated and contributed to the session on
external stressors and their effects on behavior. Heavy metals,
herbicides, repetitive work, anxiety, and their effects on behavior
and health were all represented. The discussion in this session
attracted much interest from the participants, particularly the
basic scientists.
