By the time you read this issue of Neuro-Psychoanalysis, the First International Neuro-Psychoanalysis Conference will have already taken place in London, marking an important step forward in our effort to establish a good “working alliance” between psychoanalysts and neuroscientists. Judging from reports coming in from different parts of the world, progress is almost omnipresent. For the first time Brazil has a report in the journal, and Italy is ready to start. Don't hesitate to contact me or send a report, if you have plans to start a study or research group or already have one working.
