We are delighted to announce the next in our series of Brains Blog Roundtables. The topic of this discussion is values in cognitive science!
Please join us and our great panelists, Sam Liao (University of Puget Sound), Uwe Peters (University of Bonn and Cambridge University), and Morgan Thompson (Bielefeld University), for a great discussion! We talk about the difficulties in studying value-laden concepts, how values shape cognitive science inquiry, controversies surrounding implicit bias, and even some aesthetics!
Please see below for links to material cited in the video. Previous roundtables can be viewed at philosophyofbrains.com/category/roundtables.
