Abstract

he present volume of Biological Research is dedicated to the memory of Francisco Varela,renown Chilean scholar recently deceased in Paris (1). The issue contains a collection ofpapers by people who shared moments of thought and research with Francisco at differenttimes and places during his short but remarkably productive life. The variety of issues addressedby the articles contained here aims to be no more than an unpretentious modest reflection of thewide spectrum of Francisco´s intellectual interests, from Mathematics to Neuroscience, fromEpistemology to Psychology. In all of the fields that Francisco explored with his well preparedand open mind he contributed with deep novel insights, that crystallized in numerous articles,comments, books and interviews. We hope that this volume, which we have entitled “A Tributeto Francisco Varela (1946-2001)” will be informative and inspiring for colleagues and studentsall over the world.1) LETELIER JC (2001) Los derroteros cientificos de Francisco Varela (1946-2001).
