A neuroscientist open to nonduality: Rudolph Tanzi

[Ninshub]

In this wide-ranging interview, Rudolph Tanzi, Professor of Neurology at Harvard University and one of our most open-minded and influential neuroscientists, touches on experiences from his own life and research to propose a model of consciousness that includes attention, and can be welcomed both by science and nonduality. A pragmatic scientist, he refuses to be dogmatic about the primacy of mind or matter, and is willing to consider fringe experiences such as lucid dreaming and precognition in an effort to come to understanding.

I've just got to 27 minutes on the first video, Ian. It's very good, well worth watching.

I think Tanzi  makes Novella look quite primitive by comparison as a fellow neuroscientist.  Just by the by, does he remind you of someone ? I thought it was the 'Man versus Food' guy at first but now I'm not so sure.

I can’t say he reminds me of anyone but I did find myself thinking that he’s got a nice, kind face, and getting lost in thoughts about when and how much that can be indicative of anything!

Thanks, Ian. Sorry, I can't resist. Richman is to 'gastro' what Tanzi is to 'neuro.'  Adam is seen here showing off the result of his lobotomy
