Hi All,

Well AICS —Australian Institute for Consciousness Studies continues to move forward rapidly. I have four new board member appointments to report. But over and above the highly accomplished board we are developing, there has also been an incredible amount of public and media interest.

New board members: Peter Boord Ph.D in neuroscience—director of the World Happiness Forum joins AICS as a director. While Robert Thurman Professor of Buddhist philosophy from Columbia university,  Shaun Gallagher Professor of Philosophy and Cognitive Sciences from the University of Central Florida, as well as Joan Halifax Roshi is a Buddhist teacher, medical anthropologist, social activist, and author with a Ph.D in Medical Anthropology have all joined the AICS advisory board. You can see more of the board here http://australianinstitute.org/board-of-directors/
