Con motivo de la publicación de su último libro Con ustedes… ¡nuestro cerebro! Una historia de cómo desciframos la mente humana (y lo que nos queda por hacer) , recibimos en nuestro auditorio a Stanislas Dehaene, uno de los mayores expertos mundiales en neurociencia, quien conversará con otro gran divulgador, Mariano Sigman. Un diálogo entre dos grandes neurocientíficos y divulgadores sobre la historia de la gran aventura científica que ha sido y es descifrar el funcionamiento del cerebro humano.

On the occasion of the publication of his latest book With you... our brain! A history of how we deciphered the human mind (and what we still have to do), we welcome Stanislas Dehaene, one of the world's leading experts in neuroscience, to our auditorium for a conversation with another great communicator, Mariano Sigman. A dialogue between two great neuroscientists and communicators on the history of the great scientific adventure that has been and is deciphering the functioning of the human brain.

Mariano Sigman, a physicist by training, is a leading figure in the cognitive neuroscience of learning and decision making. Sigman was awarded a Human Frontiers Career Development Award, the National Prize of Physics, the Young Investigator Prize of "College de France," the IBM Scalable Data Analytics Award and is a scholar of the James S. McDonnell Foundation. In 2016 he was made a Laureate of the Pontifical Academy of Sciences.

In The Secret Life of the Mind, Sigman's ambition is to explain the mind so that we can understand ourselves and others more deeply. He shows how we form ideas during our first days of life, how we give shape to our fundamental decisions, how we dream and imagine, why we feel certain emotions, how the brain transforms and how who we are changes with it. Spanning biology, physics, mathematics, psychology, anthropology, linguistics, philosophy and medicine, as well as gastronomy, magic, music, chess, literature and art, The Secret Life of the Mind revolutionizes how neuroscience serves us in our lives, revealing how the infinity of neurons inside our brains manufacture how we perceive, reason, feel, dream and communicate.
