SUMMARY:The Future Human - A Conversation with Dr. Merlin Sheldrake
DESCRIPTION:A Conversation between Dr. Merlin Sheldrake and Dr. Àlex Gómez-Marín \n\n\n\nWednesday May 249:00am PDT  | 12:00pm EDT  | 5:00pm BST  |  6:00pm CEST \n\n\n\nThis event is LIVE and FREE. A monthly virtual encounter to reckon whence and whither humanity. \n\n\n\nFollowing an hour-long lively and spontaneous dialogue between Alex and his guest\, the session will be open to questions from the audience. \n\n\n\nWhat will the future look like? How will the Future Human live? How will families\, child rearing\, education\, health services\, work\, art\, religion\, love\, science\, language\, storytelling change? And politics\, economics\, government\, and the law? Will we be able to inhabit our planet in harmony\, have sufficient energy\, and afford to eat healthy food? Will we even survive? Can we thrive? These are just some of the topics that will be discussed online at the Pari Center in 2023. \n\n\n\nEach month the Director of the Pari Center\, physicist and neuroscientist Àlex Gómez-Marín\, will be thinking and feeling aloud in the mode of dialogue with a prominent guest for about an hour\, followed by questions and comments from the audience. Pursuing a major theme without rehearsal or script\, they will attempt to engage with ‘that’ which sometimes takes place between (and beyond) two people talking. \n\n\n\nThroughout 2022\, Àlex hosted the very successful conversation series The Future Scientist\, a monthly virtual encounter that aimed to understand where science is going and to reimage where we hope it might go. Maintaining the spirit and the format\, the series will now expand its scope and morph into The Future Human as a natural continuation of the quest to reckon whence and whither humanity. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nThe fifth conversation in this series will be on Wednesday May 24\, 2023 with Dr. Merlin Sheldrake. Our conversation will orbit around “the entangled lives of fauna\, flora and funga”.\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nMerlin Sheldrake is a biologist and author of Entangled Life: How Fungi Make Our Worlds\, Change Our Minds\, and Shape Our Futures\, a New York Times and Sunday Times bestseller\, and winner of the Royal Society Book Prize and the Wainwright Prize. Merlin is a research associate of the Vrije University Amsterdam\, and works with the Society for the Protection of Underground Networks and the Fungi Foundation. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nÀlex Gómez-Marín is a Spanish physicist turned neuroscientist. He holds a PhD in theoretical physics and a Masters in biophysics from the University of Barcelona. He was a research fellow at the EMBL-CRG Centre for Genomic Regulation and at the Champalimaud Center for the Unknown in Lisbon. His research spans from the origins of the arrow of time to the neurobiology of action-perception across species\, from flies and worms to mice and humans. Since 2016 he has been the head of the Behavior of Organisms Laboratory at the Instituto de Neurociencias in Alicante\, where he is an Associate Professor of the Spanish Research Council. Combining computational biology and continental philosophy\, his current research concentrates on consciousness in the real world.
