It was an honor to be a part of the 1st annual conference for The Society for Philosophy and Neuroscience. Interdisciplinary in the best sense. Looking forward to more events. @socphilneuro.bsky.social

The 1st Society for Philosophy & Neuroscience @socphilneuro.bsky.social meeting was outstanding! I'm so sorry I have to miss the last day. Thanks to the organizers for putting together such an amazing lineup - great to see so many folks working at the intersection.

Why is neuroscience so difficult?? Mazviita Chiromuuta at @socphilneuro.bsky.social

Society for Neuroscience and Philosophy, SPAN 2025 Gets started with John Krakauer challenging *everything*! @socphilneuro.bsky.social

John Krakauer killing off Simulation Ideology for the 1st annual meeting of @socphilneuro.bsky.social! @pessoabrain.bsky.social seems to be a fan? Looking forward to the #DSPNW session later today. Stoked to share my epistemic take on hyperscanning and some of the empiric work it stems from ;-)

Great first day of SPAN2025 @socphilneuro.bsky.social! I’m v tired. Two more awesome days to go!

Frances Egan explains her notion of representations as developed in her recent book At the Society for Philosophy and Neuroscience meeting @socphilneuro.bsky.social

@jrbneuropsiq.bsky.social at @socphilneuro.bsky.social on the need of a psychopathological turn past the pre-paradigmatic heterogeneity of explanations of mental health disorders via a metatheoretic analysis towards a coherent and integrated framework built atop a taxonomic space of theories.

Great, reflective talk by Joe LeDoux at @socphilneuro.bsky.social
