This book seeks to build bridges between neuroscience and social science empirical researchers and theorists working around the world, integrating perspectives from both fields, separating real from spurious divides between them and delineating new challenges for future investigation. Since its inception in the early 2000s, multilevel social neuroscience has dramatically reshaped our understanding of the affective and cultural dimensions of neurocognition. Thanks to its explanatory pluralism, this field has moved beyond long standing dichotomies and reductionisms, offering a neurobiological perspective on topics classically monopolized by non-scientific traditions, such as consciousness, subjectivity, and intersubjectivity. Moreover, it has forged new paths for dialogue with disciplines which directly address societal dynamics, such as economics, law, education, public policy making and sociology. At the same time, beyond internal changes in the field of neuroscience, new problems emerge in the dialogue with other disciplines.
Neuroscience and Social Science - The Missing Link puts together contributions by experts interested in the convergences, divergences, and controversies across these fields. The volume presents empirical studies on the interplay between relevant levels of inquiry (neural, psychological, social), chapters rooted in specific scholarly traditions (neuroscience, sociology, philosophy of science, public policy making), as well as proposals of new theoretical foundations to enhance the rapprochement in question.
By putting neuroscientists and social scientists face to face, the book promotes new reflections on this much needed marriage while opening opportunities for social neuroscience to plunge from the laboratory into the core of social life. This transdisciplinary approach makes Neuroscience and Social Science - The Missing Link an important resource for students, teachers, and researchers interested in the social dimension of human mind working in different fields, such as social neuroscience, social sciences, cognitive science, psychology, behavioral science, linguistics, and philosophy.
Lucas Sedeño obtained his Major in Psychology from the University of Buenos Aires in 2010. He is Ph.D in Medical Sciences at Favaloro University. In 2011, he started working at the Laboratory of Experimental Psychology and Neuroscience (LPEN), within the Institute of Translational and Cognitive Neuroscience (INCyT), INECO Foundation, Favaloro University, Buenos Aires, Argentina. Since then, he has developed experimental research related to social cognition, interoception, and embodied cognition in patients with neurological (due to stroke and neurodegeneration), cardiac, and anxiety disorders. In 2012 he obtained a scholarship from CONICET for the project "Fronto-temporo-insular networks and contextual cues in social cognition: a lesion study". The aim of this project is to explore the role of fronto-temporo and insular regions in integrating contextual cues, focusing on their functional connectivity. In recent years, his research has focused on the analysis of neuroimaging data (both structural and functional) to characterize neurological diseases. In this context, in 2015, he obtained a scholarship from the German Academic Exchange Service (DAAD) for a three-month internship in the German Center for Neurodegenerative Diseases (DZNE). During this period, he received training in voxel-based morphometry (VBM), cortical-thickness analysis, and tract-based spatial statistics for diffusion imaging (DTI). Since 2015 he is the General Director of the LPEN. His publications have appeared in leading journals, such as Stroke, Cortex, Scientific Reports, Neuroimage, SCAN, Cerebral Cortex, Journal of the International Neuropsychological Society, PLOS ONE, and Frontiers in Human Neuroscience.
Adolfo M. García is an expert in the neuroscience of language. He is the Scientific Director of the Laboratory of Experimental Psychology and Neuroscience, at the Institute of Cognitive and Translational Neuroscience (INCyT, Argentina). He is also a researcher at the National Scientific and Technical Research Council (CONICET, Argentina) and the UDP-INECO Foundation Core on Neuroscience (Chile). In addition, Dr. García is Adjunct Professor of Neurolinguistics at the Faculty of Elementary and Special Education (National University of Cuyo, Argentina) and member of the TREC (Translation, Research, Empiricism, Cognition) Network, based on the Autonomous University of Barcelona (Spain). He is also associate editor for the Journal of World Languages and a reviewer for dozens of leading journals in neuroscience, neurolinguistics, and linguistics. Dr. García has received training in neurolinguistics at New York University and Rice University (USA), and has disseminated his work in multiple scientific and academic events worldwide. As a professor, he has taught undergraduate, graduate, and professional development courses in Argentina, Chile, Colombia, USA, Germany, and China. From 2011 through 2014 he served as Adjunct Professor of Translation Studies at the National University of Córdoba (Argentina). He has also been a Visiting Professor at Macquarie University (Australia), Universidad del Valle (Colombia), Universidad de Antioquia (Colombia), Pontificia Universidad Católica de Valparaíso (Chile), and Johannes Gutenberg University (Germany). He has acted as thesis advisor to undergraduate and graduate students in Argentina and Europe. He has more than 80 publications, including books, chapters and articles in leading journals, such as Journal of Neurolinguistics, Journal of the International Neurospychological Society, Cortex, Cognition, Frontiers in Psychology, Translational Neuroscience, Target, Meta, Translation and Interpreting Studies, and Linguistics and the Human Sciences. In 2013 he received the Most Outstanding Paper Award from the Linguistic Association of Canada and the United States. That same year he was distinguished by the Ibero-American Neuroeducation Society. In 2015, he was awarded the Young Investigator Prize, granted by the Argentine Association of Behavioral Science.
