  • Week 1 - Stone-age minds in modern skulls: evolutionary theory and the philosophy of mind (Suilin Lavelle and Kenny Smith)
    Scientists agree that our brains are a product of natural selection. How did human brains and human cognitive structures evolve ?
  • Week 2 - What is consciousness? (Mark Sprevak and David Carmel)
    Why do creatures with brains like ours have consciousness? What makes certain bits of our mental life conscious and others not?
  • Week 3 - Intelligent machines and the human brain (Mark Sprevak and Peggy Series)
    How does one make a clever adaptive machine that can recognise speech, control an aircraft, and detect credit card fraud?
  • Week 4 - Embodied cognition (Andy Clark and Barbara Webb)
    Embodied cognition is all about the huge difference that having an active body and being situated in a structured environment make to the kind of tasks that the brain has to perform in order to support adaptive success.
