The Science of Consciousness (‘TSC’) conference is the world’s longest running inter-disciplinary gathering on the study of consciousness, the nature of existence and our place in the universe. TSC has alternated yearly since 1994 between Tucson, Arizona USA and elsewhere including Italy, Denmark, Japan, Sweden, Czech Republic, Hungary, Hong Kong, India, California, Switzerland, Finland, and in 2023 Taormina, on the island of Sicily. In 2025 TSC will be in Barcelona, Spain preceding and in conjunction with The Festival of Consciousness.
We are at a crossroads in the age-old study of consciousness. Over the past thirty years approaches to understanding consciousness have diverged along two distinct paths: 1) ‘neurocomputational’ views of the brain as a complex computer of simple neurons, a view compatible with AI systems becoming conscious, and 2) ‘funda-mental’ views in which consciousness is intrinsic to the universe, connected to the brain through quantum biology. Exploring the funda-mental view, TSC embraces neuroscience biology far more rigorously than AI-compatible simple neurons. Ironically, conscious AI may be most likely to occur in biomimetic quantum computers.

How can we engage more women in consciousness studies scholarship and discourse, and what happens when we do? This workshop features female scholars from different disciplines sharing findings from their consciousness studies research. The theme of the value of women’s contributions to the field will be woven through the presentations and discussions. Do women’s perspectives, questions, approaches, and interpretations offer something potentially new or different to the study of consciousness? Do women have unique experiences of being consciousness researchers that may differ from men’s? If so, how can we bring these experiences into the field to enrich its scope and depth? This workshop will include research presentations by the panelists and dialogues about the future of women in consciousness studies research. Speakers in this workshop include Dr. Marjorie Woollacott (U Oregon, Inst. of Neuroscience), Dr. Joan Walton (York St. John U, Education), Dr. Marina Weiler (U Virginia, DOPS), Dr. Mona Sobhani (IONS), Allison Paradise (CEO, The Epicenter), and Laurel Waterman, PhD.

EU Travel – Visas and Travel Waiver Authorizations
Summary of Travel Visa Waiver Authorization Requirements
Visas are handled by the Embassy and Consulate of Spain in your area. They will provide you with a template form if they need the Conference organizers to provide a letter and signature. Send this form to: center@arizona.edu
New Requirements for Travel to Europe (EES and ETIAS) expected in 2025
Entry/Exit System (EES)
The Entry/Exit System expected to launch in 2025
The Entry/Exit System (EES) is an automated IT system for registering non-EU nationals traveling for a short stay, each time they cross the external borders of any of the following European countries using the system:
European Travel Information and Authorization System (ETIAS)
ETIAS is not currently in operation and no applications are collected at this point. Expected Date of Operation - mid-2025
It is due to start 6 months after EES is launched.
ETIAS – European Travel Information and Authorization System
This is an expected upcoming new ONLINE travel authorization waiver that will affect all short-term travelers to the EU by mid-2025. Requests for Waivers will be handled via an online system by the traveler with a processing fee (EUR 7).
You will need an ETIAS waiver/authorization to travel to an ETIAS Member Country. The ETIAS is for citizens of countries outside the EU that don’t require a “visa” for short visits BUT who will need this TRAVEL WAIVER AUTHORIZATION – ETIAS. For example, travelers from the United States, Canada, Japan, Australia, and the United Kingdom will all need an ETIAS before authorization entering Schengen countries.
Please work with your travel agent and stay up to date with the EU official website and ETIAS tracking services. If the system becomes operational and affects your travel, you will need to take care of this potential requirement in order to enter the EU and travel between ETIAS countries.
The online Application template for ETIAS is posted on the EU website and while not operational at the time of this letter, various required questions are outlined. They state that it will take approximately 20 minutes to complete. The Application fee is EUR 7 collected online (debit or credit card). Authorizations should be immediate or within 96 hours pending any issues. ETIAS will send back a travel authorization tracking number that is linked to your passport. Once approved the ETIAS will be good for 3 years or until your passport expires if sooner. If you are expecting to apply for a new passport please do so as soon as possible.

This Doctor Says He Knows How the Brain Creates Consciousness. New Evidence Suggests He’s On to Something.
Stuart Hameroff has faced three decades of criticism for his quantum consciousness theory, but new studies show the idea may not be as fringe as once believed.

S. Hameroff, MD "Consciousness and Free Will" - Dr. Hameroff Is professor and director of the Center for Consciousness Studies at the University of Arizona. With Oxford Nobel Laureate, Sir Roger Penrose, he has proposed consciousness depends on quantum processes in microtubules, protein polymers inside brain neurons, connected to fluctuations in the fine scale structure of the universe. Hameroff has speculated consciousness precedes and persists after life, entangled in spacetime geometry.

Bennu holds the solar system's 'original ingredients,' might have been part of a wet world - Mikayla Mace Kelley, UA News, June 26, 2024
OSIRIS-REx sample scientists took a deep dive into the rocks and dust returned from asteroid Bennu. They found that the sample is rich in carbon, nitrogen and organic compounds – essential components for life as we know it.
"Finally having the opportunity to delve into the OSIRIS-REx sample from Bennu after all these years is incredibly exciting," said Dante Lauretta, principal investigator for OSIRIS-REx and Regents Professor of planetary sciences in the University of Arizona Lunar and Planetary Laboratory. "This breakthrough not only answers longstanding questions about the early solar system but also opens new avenues of inquiry into the formation of Earth as a habitable planet. The insights outlined in our overview paper have sparked further curiosity, driving our eagerness to explore deeper." More

August 2024, Consciousness Pre-dates
Consciousness came before life
The fundamental cause of evolution.
Hameroff, S. (2024, May 08). Consciousness came before life. IAI News. /articles/life-and-consciousness-what-are-they-auid-2836
Most scientists and philosophers believe that life came before consciousness. Life appeared on Earth about 3.8 billion years ago; consciousness and feelings, it’s said, evolved later due to complex biological information processing, perhaps only recently in brains with language and tool-making abilities. In fact, though, there’s good reason to think that consciousness preceded life, and was central to making life and evolution possible. More

Consciousness Pre-Dates Life
VIDEO-Hameroff
Many scientists, operating with a materialist worldview, argue that consciousness emerges out of inanimate molecules. In contrast, Roger Penrose's longtime collaborator, Stuart Hameroff, puts forward the controversial case that consciousness precedes life and that we have evidence for this from a recent NASA experiment.

Conferences | since 1994
The Science of Consciousness (TSC) conferences are the pre-eminent world gatherings on all approaches to the profound and fundamental question of how the brain produces conscious experience, a question which addresses who we are, the nature of reality and our place in the universe. TSC conferences have been held in Tucson since 1994, (every 2 years) and are recognized around the world. TSC International held its first conference in 1995 and continues in alternate years.
2024 Themes: Cortical Oscillations and Traveling Waves; Psychedelics, Psychoplastogens; Astrobiology, Astroconsciousness; Dual Aspect Monism; Megahertz EEG and DoDecoGraphy (DDG); Theories of Consciousness; Consciousness and Reality; Artificial Intelligence (AI) and Consciousness Detecting Consciousness; Microtubule Time Crystals; Searching for Consciousness and Entanglement in Cerebral Organoids; Brain Dimensions, Wavefunctions and Symmetry
Conference Activities and Social Events TSC 2024
TSC 2024 will include plenary sessions, in-depth workshops, concurrent presentations, poster sessions, book and technology exhibits, health and wellness exhibitors. Free time for swimming, hiking, and other resort activities. Sabino Canyon is approx. 3 miles from the Resort. Welcome Reception (Tues); Dinner (Thurs optional-tickets required); Poetry Slam (Fri)

CONFERENCE CHAIRS
STUART HAMEROFF
Stuart Hameroff Co-Founder, Director, Center for Consciousness Studies; Co-Chair, The Science of Consciousness; Professor Emeritus, Departments of Anesthesiology and Psychology, U of Arizona, Stuart Hameroff MD is a clinical anesthesiologist and researcher on how the brain produces consciousness, and how anesthetics act to erase it. In medical school in the early 1970s, Hameroff became interested in consciousness, and in protein structures called microtubules inside brain neurons which he came to believe processed information supporting consciousness. In the mid- 1990s he teamed with Sir Roger Penrose to develop the controversial ‘Orch OR’ theory in which consciousness derives from “orchestrated” (“Orch”) microtubule quantum vibrations linked to processes in spacetime geometry, the fine scale structure of the universe, leading to “Penrose objective reduction” (“OR”, hence “Orch OR”). And he has further proposed the ‘microtubule quantum vibration’ theory of anesthetic action. Hameroff organizes the well-known conference series ‘The Science of Consciousness’, has written or edited 5 books and over a hundred scientific articles, and appeared in films and various TV shows about consciousness. With University of Arizona colleagues Jay Sanguinetti, John JB Allen and Shinzen Young, Hameroff is developing transcranial ultrasound (‘TUS’) for treatment of mental and cognitive dysfunction (TUS may resonate endogenous megahertz vibrations in brain microtubules). Penrose- Hameroff Orch OR is one of a group of major theories of consciousness in the Templeton World Charity Foundation project ‘Accelerating Research on Consciousness’ and is currently being tested experimentally. (Jan 2024 New Scientist Feature Cover on Quantum Consciousness, G. Musser) (Plen 12)

GEORGE MASHOUR
George A. Mashour is an anesthesiologist and NIH-funded neuroscientist at the University of Michigan Medical School, where he serves as the Robert B. Sweet Professor and Chair of Anesthesiology. He founded and currently directs the Michigan Psychedelic Center, which is multidisciplinary and spans the University of Michigan. (Plen 6)

The Tucson Conferences - Biennial
Since 1994, the biennial series "Toward a Science of Consciousness" conferences now "The Science of Consciousness" are a landmark of international, interdisciplinary events sponsored by the University of Arizona devoted entirely to unlocking the mysteries of consciousness. They have explored the whole spectrum of approaches from philosophy of mind and cognitive science, to neurobiology, pharmacology, and molecular dynamics, phenomenological accounts, and physics. The aim is tolay a sound scientific foundation for future research

The Tucson Conferences - Biennial
Since 1994, the biennial series "Toward a Science of Consciousness" conferences are a landmark of international, interdisciplinary events sponsored by the University of Arizona devoted entirely to unlocking the mysteries of consciousness. They have explored the whole spectrum of approaches from philosophy of mind and cognitive science, to neurobiology, pharmacology, and molecular dynamics, phenomenological accounts, and physics. The aim is to lay a sound scientific foundation for future research.
