John Krakauer said: "Less maths, more philosophy" and that's what I am taking away from this symposium! Kidding, it's ALL wonderful. Many young neuroscientists truly engaged in the philosophical & ethical issues surrounding agency & #epistemicinjustice, heartwarming! www.sainsburywellcom... #philsky
