Are You aware of this website ?

A lot of interesting publications in this site by Lorenzo Pia ass prof Psychology at the Univ of Turino. He works on the fascinating phenomenon of awareness. Lack of awareness in disease (Anosognosia) is not only present in right frontal stroke but also a key symptom in shizophrenia and as such "awareness" could form an important link between neurology and psychiatry by way of neuropsychology and cognitive neuropsychiatry. Clinical neurophysiology is an important tool to clarify the links and prepare for future bridges to be build upon it. We are aware, are we not, that at the end of the day there are no real difference between neuro and psy. It all boils down to pure neuroscience. !
