Stuart Hameroff: Is Consciousness a Quantum Orchestra? Microtubules, Objective Reduction, & Orch OR
Stuart Hameroff MD is Professor of Anesthesiology and Psychology, and Director of the Center for Consciousness Studies at the University of Arizona in Tucson. Hameroff became interested in intelligent behavior of microtubules, protein lattices which organize activities within living cells. Hameroff and colleagues developed theories of microtubules as self-organizing molecular computers. In the 1990s Hameroff teamed with Sir Roger Penrose on the controversial Penrose-Hameroff "Orch OR" model of consciousness based on quantum computing in brain neuronal microtubules, a notion bolstered by recent evidence. Hameroff also organizes the biennial interdisciplinary conferences, The Science of Consciousness Conference. The Science of Consciousness (‘TS...

Patricia Churchland: Biologický původ morálky
Neurofilozofka Patricia Churchland přichází s nezvyklým pohledem na to, odkud se bere morálka, a s ní i solidarita a péče o druhé. Její zdroj při zkoumání fungování mozku nenachází jen v náboženství, výchově a společenské etice, ale i v biologických procesech a evoluci. Důležitým souvisejícím objevem přitom je, že tyto schopnosti nejsou dány pouze člověku. Najdeme je také u dalších savců i jiných druhů živočichů.

Materialism Battles Dualism - Philosophy of Mind Pt. 2| #182
In a continuation of last week's show, Dr. Justin Clarke leads us through a challenge to dualism's mind philosophy, materialism. Materialism argues that our brain is our mind and that mental activities are connected to physical ones. Materialists believe physical matter is the only reality and that everything, including thought, feeling, mind, and will, can be explained in terms of matter and physical phenomena. Join us in another challenging episode!

Patricia Churchland on How We Evolved A Conscience
Patricia Churchland is the queen of neurophilosophy. She’s on fine form in this interview - charming, funny and occasionally savage as we range over her views on the nature of philosophy, the neuroscience and evolution of morality, and consider what’s wrong with the two major ethical traditions in western thought: utilitarianism and Kantianism. 1.43 - Is philosophy just a kind of science in its infancy - a ‘proto-science’ - or it is a special kind of conceptual analysis? Professor Churchland doesn’t pull her punches as she takes on the ‘language police’ approach to philosophy. 8.03 Why so...

Crowded subway driving you crazy? Sick of the marathon-length grocery store line? Wish you had a hovercraft to float over traffic? If you are itching to hightail it to an isolated cabin in the woods, remember, we evolved to be together. Humans are not only social, we’re driven to care for one another, even those outside our immediate family. We look at some of the reasons why this is so – from the increase in valuable communication within social groups to the power of the hormone oxytocin. Plus, how our willingness to tolerate anonymity, a condition which allows soc...

Patricia Churchland on Conscience, Morality, and the Brain
It’s fun to spend time thinking about how other people should behave, but fortunately we also have an inner voice that keeps offering opinions about how we should behave ourselves: our conscience. Where did that come from? Today’s guest, Patricia Churchland, is a philosopher and neuroscientist, one of the founders of the subfield of “neurophilosophy.” We dig into the neuroscience of it all, especially how neurochemicals like oxytocin affect our attitudes and behaviors. But we also explore the philosophical ramifications of having a conscience, with an eye to understanding morality and ethics in a neurophilosophical context. Support Mindscape on Patreon ...

IVANILOQUI #10 - Menti tribali: tra Moralità, Istinto e Neurobiologia
Da dove nasce il comportamento morale? Esso è dettato da una razionalità che ci consente di agire cercando sempre ciò che è meglio per noi, oppure si basa sul puro istinto? È qualcosa di egoistico, oppure è volto a rafforzare la coesione di un gruppo? E, soprattutto, perché le brave persone si dividono su politica e religione? Oggi cercheremo di rispondere a queste domande partendo dal libro di Jonathan Haidt, chiamando in causa anche Fëdor Dostoevskij, Patricia Churchland, David Hume e Socrate!

Self-caring neural circuitry embodies self-preservation values, and these are values in the most elemental sense. Whence caring for others? Social problem-solving, including policy-making, is probably an instance of problem-solving more generally, and draws upon the capacity, prodigious in humans, to envision consequences of a planned action. In humans, it also draws upon the capacity for improving upon current practices and technologies. Audio version.

Cross-Level Linkages in Neurobiology
Patricia S. Churchland (San Diego) gives a talk at the MCMP conference "Reduction and Emergence in the Sciences" (14-16 November, 2013) titled "Cross-Level Linkages in Neurobiology". Abstract: In neurobiology, an important strategy is to link high level properties, such as spatial knowledge or impulse control, to specific macro structuresand to signature neuronal activity in parts of those structures. At a deeper level, the goal is to understand that neuronal signature in the context of regional microanatomy, neuropharmacology, and basic neuronal physiology. Where possible, the companion goal is to link the structural changes during learning to gene expression. In some conditions, such...

CARTA: Is the Human Mind Unique? – Patricia Churchland: Moral Sense
Morality is a social behavior seen in mammals, and some birds, which depends on an interlocking brain organization shaped by four factors. Patricia Churchland (UC San Diego) discusses how the importance of these factors can vary between species, as a function of natural selection operating on subcortical structures, and of the degree of flexibility of the cortical organization. For example, increased capacity for impulse control is a feature of frontal brain expansion. Social benefits are accompanied by social demands; we have to get along, but not put up with too much. Hence impulse control – being aggressive or compassionate or indulgent at...

It is destined to be replaced by a better science of human behaviour, and that science will be the science of the brain and the nervous system. Advances in brain physiology...
