This volume contains the papers presented during the
Neurophysiology Session of the first Orbis Scientiae of the Center
for Theoretical Studies, University of Miami, Coral Gables,
Florida. With this first Orbis which met from January 7 - 11, 1974,
the Center for Theoretical Studies has inaugerated a new set of
annual gatherings devoted to the natural sciences and to problems
on the "interface" of science and society. The content of the talks
presented ranged over a wide variety of topics in neurophysiology,
biophysics and biochemistry. A number of the talks concerned
various aspects of the brain and its functions. Recent results were
also presented on the physics and chemistry of membranes. The
papers in the volume are presented in the order in which they were
originally delivered. Special thanks are due to Mrs. Helga
Billings, Miss Sara Lesser and Mrs. Jacquelyn Zagursky for the
typing of the manuscript and for their efficient and cheerful
attention to the details of the conference.
The Center for Theoretical Studies of the University of Miami has
been the host of annual winter conferences whose content has
expanded from the particular topic of symmetry principles in high
energy physics to encompass the bases and relationships of many
branches of know ledge. The scope of the Tenth Coral Gables
Conference on Fundamental Interactions included astrophysics,
atomic and molecular physics, fundamental theories of gravi tation,
of electromagnetism, and of hadrons, gauge theories of weak and
electromagnetic interactions, high energy physics, liquid helium
physics, and theoretical biology. The range of topics is partially
represented by the scientific talks which form this book. The
tangible fruits of the conference are these papers; the intangible
ones are the changes of outlook which the participants experienced
and the new appreciation they gained of the basic unity of all
knowledge. Historically, the early Coral Gables Conferences
witnessed the introduction of the concept of the quark and the
attempts to formulate a unification of the in ternal and space-time
symmetries of the elementary particles, while later ones were the
initial forums for new unified theories of interactions and for the
ideas of scaling, light-cone dominance, and partons."
