Even though knowledge about the impact of the pandemic on mental health is still very limited in all countries and is largely based on experiences only partially comparable to the current epidemic, such as those of the SARS or Ebola epidemics, it is likely that the need for intervention will increase significantly in the coming months and years. Scientific research in neuroscience is a growing field. It offers a novel perspective on the relationship between mind and brain and provides novel scenarios for understanding the long wave of the current pandemic. Furthermore, the pandemic has also led to the possibility of implementing remote monitoring and management interventions. This volume uses multidisciplinary approaches to physiological and cognitive mechanisms, medical treatment, psychosocial interventions, and self-management to help illustrate the complex association among the COVID-19 pandemic, neurological manifestations, mental health, and society.

Universities have two roles. As educational institutions, a university develops human resources with advanced expertise, and as research institutions, they promote the investigation of issues in researchers’ specialized fields. In addition, the role of universities has recently expanded to include contributing to the local community. Universities should engage in social contributions by returning the knowledge acquired through their educational and research activities to the local community through related activities such as joint research and technology transfer as part of industry-academia-government cooperation, and improving the lives and welfare of local residents, leading to vitality and the formation of a prosperous society. This book describes the community contribution activities and social connections of our university since its establishment.
Hardbound. The study of ERPs in human beings is an extremely important methodology for evaluating brain function, brain-behaviour relationships, impairments in cognitive functioning in psychiatric disorders and ERP-drug interaction.The advancements in ERP methodology have promoted the application of ERPs in both clinical and nonclinical settings. This volume aims to focus on issues that must be dealt with when ERPs are utilized in these situations, as well as to focus on issues related to the advancements of a theoretical understanding of the ERP phenomena, especially the impact of recent advancements in neuroscience on this particular field.This book will prove to be a useful reference work for those engaged in ERP research, and promote further development of this field.
