Discussion with Daniel Dennett

I am very excited to have the opportunity to discuss the work of the great philosopher Daniel Dennett with none less than Dennett himself! On November 13 2012, there will be a symposium in the context of the Erasmus prize that Dennett has won. During this symposium, a group of PhD students in Philosophy and Neuroscience will talk with Dennett about his work, e.g. on free will and consciousness. A while ago we prepared the questions we will ask him, and we are reading a lot of his work to be well prepared. The next day we will attend the prize giving ceremony in the Royal Palace in Amsterdam.

If you would like to learn more about Dennett’s work, you can attend one of the meetings that are organized to celebrate his Erasmus prize.
