Robinson’s Podcast #223 – Michael Graziano: Consciousness, Animal Minds, and the Neuroscience of Suffering. . Michael Graziano is Professor of Psychology and Neuroscience at Princeton University, where he and his lab research the brain basis of consciousness. This is Michael’s second appearance on Robinson’s Podcast. In episode #169, they discussed Michael’s Attention Schema Theory of consciousness, in which consciousness is a way in which the brain models attention to better organize and monitor itself. In this conversation, Robinson and Michael reexamine the Attention Schema Theory with an eye toward the problem of studying the consciousness not only of humans, but of other animals, and with particular regard to the moral questions surrounding animals’ roles in our lives. Michael’s most recent book is Rethinking Consciousness (W. W. Norton, 2019).. . Rethinking Consciousness: https://a.co/d/8euR1EL. . Graziano Lab: ⁠https://grazianolab.princeton.edu⁠. .
