Throwback Thursday: 'Ideas worth spreading'

Dr. David Eagleman
Last year, Dr. David Eagleman, assistant professor in the Department of Neuroscience and the Menninger Department of Psychiatry & Behavioral Sciences, delivered a TED talk in 2010 for TEDxHouston in which he talked culture, faith, religion, science and how they intersect. He also delved into the mystery of the brain, how we experience feelings, perception and make decisions.
