I cervelli sono onnipresenti nel mercato moderno: titoli di giornale che affermano che i sandwich al formaggio aiutano a prendere decisioni, mentre una bevanda "neuro" si dice che aiuti a ridurre lo stress. C'è solo un piccolo problema, dice la neuroscienziata Molly Crockett: i benefici di queste "scoperte neurali" non sono provati scientificamente. In questo discorso diretto, Crockett spiega i limiti dell'interpretazione dei dati neuroscientifici, e perché dobbiamo esserne a conoscenza e fare attenzione.

Neuroscientist Molly Crockett studies altruism, morality and value-based decision-making in humans. Full bio »
