Description
By Dr. Adina Roskies, Dartmouth College
New neuroimaging methods uncover the biological basis of thought, and have been promoted as superior techniques for lie detection. In this talk I evaluate the capacity of neuroimaging to disclose the content of thoughts, both now and in the future, and discuss implications for law and social policy.
