22: The Neuroscience Of Extrasensory Perception | James H. Fallon, PhD
Manage episode 305191679 series 2944976
James H. Fallon, PhD shares stories of extrasensory perception from a neuroscientific lens. Dr Fallon is a neuroscientist and psychopathy researcher and has been an authority on matters relating to neuroscience, mental illness, neuropsychiatry/psychology, and psychopathy for decades. Dr Fallon has delivered a monumental TED Talk on psychopaths and wrote a memoir on his experiences called The Psychopath Inside.
In this thought-provoking episode, Dr Fallon explores the importance of the temporal lobe in all sorts of functions, including what many might consider 'paranormal.' Telekinesis, mind-reading, dreams, prophetic predictions, knowing what's happened in the past—all these themes (and more) are covered. This is the science of extrasensory perception (also called ESP).
