I will be getting an an academic leave this coming fall and want to visit with scientists and mythologist in Greece and Italy.
It appears that much of the neuroscience research that I read comes from Italy. I am looking for advice on a researcher who would be wiling to work with me.
I also want to visit Greece to work with anthropologists or mythologists to deepen my understanding of myth and to see original locales for the observance of rituals.
Can I get some suggestions for who I should talk to and where I should go? Or better yet,
volunteers?
Hello Jane, I think You should visit Laboratory leaded earlier by prof. Giacomo Rizzolatti in Parma. His research regarding mirror neurons in monkeys became one of the most interesting and revealing project in European Neuroscience.
Greetings from Poland.
The University of Turin has a pretty bustling neuroscientific community. You should try and contact prof. Franco Cauda, he's a very good researcher. You should also check out this website and get in contact with NICO, which is a neuroscience research institute that's affiliated with the University of Turin:

Thank you all for the answers to my question. As it turns out, I went to Parma and visited with Dr Rizzolatti. It was wonderful and even though the visit was brief, I learned a great deal!
