This short note is a report on the recent foundation of “the Science of Mental Time”: a Grant-in-Aid for Scientific Research on Innovative Areas, started in 2013. This interdisciplinary research team consists of 5-year Programmed Researches titled “Present”, “Past”, “Future”, “Pathological Conditions”, “Linguistics and Philosophy”, and “Comparative Ethology”, as well as many 2-year Proposed Researches. The main goals of this research team is to disentangle intricate questions about time representations in the mind, to propose suggestions for future approaches in applied psychology, and to clarify phylogeny and ontogeny of mental time. For these purposes, investigators from diverse disciplines are vigorously working together through semiannual meetings, occasional symposia, and collaborative research projects.
