The Consciousness Instinct: Michael Gazzaniga’s CNS 2018 Keynote

In this public lecture as part of CNS 2018 in Boston, Michael Gazzaniga (University of California, Santa Barbara) reviews the history of human thinking about the mind/brain problem, giving a big-picture view of what science has revealed.

Gazzaniga also discuses the origins of the Cognitive Neuroscience Society (CNS). March 24, 2018, Cognitive Neuroscience Society annu...al conference, Boston
