Eric Kandel on drugs, neurobiology and the unconscious:
Neurophilosophy has found a new video interview with neurobiologist Eric Kandel who talks about everything from long-term memory to free will to the unconscious.
Essentially, it's a series of short reveries and soundbites where Kandel gives his views on a series of topics.
Part of it is obviously PR for his company (which is trying to develop memory enhancing drugs), but it's a good chance to get Kandel's take on some core contemporary issues.
Plus we get to see his bowtie again. What more can you ask for?
