Joseph Glicksohn
Prof. Joseph Glicksohn is the Head of the Research Lab of the Multidisciplinary Brain Research Center in Bar-Ilan University, Israel. He was trained in cognitive psychology (MA, PhD), with a focus on the study of subjective experience--and in particular, the microgenesis of cognition and consciousness, namely the microdevelopmental unfolding of cognition, whose earlier products, if forced into existence by whatever experimental (or natural) means, bear the hallmark of the type of cognition that one encounters in altered states of consciousness.
