Mind Science Foundation
Founded in 1958 by Tom Slick, "The Mind Science Foundation is dedicated to solving one of the major questions of modern science - the puzzle of human consciousness - by funding leading-edge research and educational programs focused on the mind, brain and human consciousness, in order to improve the human condition." [1]
"The Mind Science Foundation has sponsored groundbreaking brain imaging research on TV Violence and Children; the seminal 2003 MIT conference with the Dalai Lama, "Investigating the Mind"; lectures by scientific luminaries from Jonas Salk to Deepak Chopra and Jane Goodall; and the annual Tom Slick Research Awards in Consciousness for scientists and physicians conducting innovative research focused on the mind/brain and human consciousness."
