Nueva Plataforma de Neurociencias Cognitivas y Ciencias de la Conducta de Argentina (PENCO-CONICET)
en 
Neurociencia-cognitivaNos es muy grato comunicar la Constitución de la Plataforma de Neurociencias Cognitivas y Ciencias de la Conducta de Argentina (PENCO-CONICET), constituida por más de 40 grupos de toda la Argentina que participan en neurociencias cognitivas y ciencias cognitivas en áreas de salud, educación, ingeniería, psicología, medicina, biología, física, tecnología, computación, filosofía y neurociencias propiamente dichas.


El PENCO se focalizará en el ámbito de las neurociencias (y ciencias) cognitivas en humanos. El PENCO conformará un espacio de coordinación de capacidades, de diálogo entre los distintos enfoques, de generación de propuestas para la consolidación del campo y de relacionamiento con los sectores interesados del ámbito de las políticas públicas y el sector productivo tales como salud, educación, tecnología y desarrollo. el PENCO buscará promocionar la investigación y traslación de la neurociencia cognitiva, afectiva y social, mediante acciones concretas y plataformas para la diseminación y el crecimiento de la experticia regional.

An Introduction to Relational Network Theory: History, Principles, and Descriptive Applications (prefacio de M. A.K. Halliday). 


(Introducción a la teoría de redes relacionales Historia, Principios y Aplicaciones Descriptivas)








Londres: Equinox. 224 páginas. ISBN: 978-1- 78179-260- 5, 2007


LIBRO






























This book, published by Equinox (England), offers an updated introduction to Relational Network Theory (RNT), a neurocognitive model of language compatible with systemic-functional tenets. Throughout eight chapters divided in two parts, it describes and illustrates the logical types of relations found in a linguistic network. Part I traces the evolution of RNT from the 1960s to the present, highlighting its systemic and stratificational origins, introducing its main notational devices, and identifying successive theoretical milestones (from structural, to operational, to neurocognitive considerations). Part II offers an unprecedented collection of case studies showing descriptive applications of RNT. The studies deal with varied linguistic phenomena in different languages (phonological patterns in Russian, morphological systems in Polish and Spanish, pronouns and nouns in English discourse, speech errors in English and Polish). The book is prefaced by Michael Halliday and includes a recent interview with Sydney Lamb, the main developer of the theory. Its didactic style and descriptive rigor render it useful for both linguistics students and professional linguists.
