The home of the late Nobel Laureate, Gerald Edelman, is the setting for this elevated discussion on human consciousness. In this episode, Bernie is joined by Gerald's son and neuroscientist David Edelman, developmental neuropsychiatrist Dr. Jay Giedd, and professional magician Mark Mitton.

What level of biology is relevant to the study of conscious processing? Is it a matter of molecules? Or cells? Or networks?

 

Talking Points

  • 0:00 – The Biological Level of the Conscious Brain
  • 6:28 – Like Evolution, Consciousness is Highly Adaptive 
  • 12:27 – Like Magic, Inductive Science is Highly Adaptive and Full of Surprises
  • 18:05 – How Magic Plays With The Limited Capacity of the Conscious Brain
  • 23:18 – The Hippocampus and Amygdala are Two Evolved Structures of the Brain
  • 28:39 – Deception and Self Deception Create Mismatches Between Reality and Expectations
  • 36:25 – The Immune System and the Brain Are Both Highly Adaptable
