Are Your Choices Predetermined? Neuroscience + Free Will (The Social Brain ep 31)

What does neuroscience have to say about free will? Is free will in conflict with the laws of physics or observations from neuroscience? What does "free will" even mean? These are ancient philosophical questions, but they have important implications for our daily lives, from how we make choices to how we can improve ourselves. In this episode of The Social Brain, we'll discuss the fascinating science and philosophy of free will from a neuroscientific perspective. ⏬ ⏬ ⏬ Help us keep this show alive by going to: https://www.patreon.com/thesocialbrain 🧠 👕 ☕Want cool neuroscience gear?
