In neurophysiology, the focus has long been on single-unit studies, stemming from foundational work by Lettwin, Hubel, Wiesel, Mountcastle, and Evarts. Recently, however, there has been a resurgence of interest in field potentials and a broader approach to understanding brain function. This shift is driven by new technical and conceptual advancements, as well as the validation of previously controversial findings. To explore this active field, a conference was held in West Berlin in August 1985, covering a range of innovative approaches to brain study. The conference featured diverse methodologies, including basic and applied research, electric and magnetic techniques, EEG and EP/ERP, and various frequency analyses. It included invited lectures, a panel discussion on "How brains may work," and a comprehensive review of relevant methodologies. The event highlighted how integrating different concepts, methods, and results could unveil significant insights in brain research. The proceedings of the conference, updated and revised by the authors, also include contributions from attendees who were invited to write chapters, enriching the discourse on these emerging topics.
