    • Philosophy

Here are some more questions we discuss:
How did Ochem break you? Why is organic chemistry so hard? What is the neuroscience of cross country skiing? What living environment can you not stand (geographical)? How do you pick a career? Did academia stifle you? What is the model in neuroscience right now that you suspect is wrong yet everyone still believes? What is the system of memory that helps us build physical skills? What about other skills? Why does it help someone learn to give them a visualization? What is the emotional flavor you experience when you learn something new? Why is it important to learn Ochem? What's the deal with false memories? What is the neuroscience of it? Has anyone started to do virtual dissections on Zoom? Which is the school that is most open hearted when it comes to teaching cognitive science? This gets into mimetics How have you adapted to homeschooling your kids? What's the deal with abstraction from a neuroscience perspective? How have small liberal schools adapted to the recent change in higher education practices? Why is it important for your education to be intimate? What are the parts of studying neuroscience that you have to do in person? Are liberal arts colleges going to survive COVID 19? What things need to be abstracted away to teach someone something online? What is the difference between neuroscience and neurophilosophy? What is the divide between philosophy and psychology? What does it mean to be a reductionist? What is it we don't understand about neuroscience? Can we change the fact that scientific papers aren't written for the general public? Is that a good idea? Why does someone (or myself) need an editor? Read "the fourth draft" or "on writing well" What is missing in this thing I just wrote?
