The Rise of Human Consciousness

September 15, 2016

The Rise of Human Consciousness
Advances in physical sciences, biology, and neuroscience have dramatically enhanced our knowledge of the human species. But can physical sciences solve the biggest mystery—the emergence of human consciousness?

A distinguished panel of experts, including David Chalmers, PhD; Michael Graziano, PhD; Hod Lipson, PhD; and Max Tegmark, PhD, will discuss in this new podcast. Scientific American's George Musser moderates. This podcast features audio from the fourth event in our series, The Physics of Everything.
