#Zoomposium with Prof. Dr. #Brigitte #Falkenburg “#Myth #Determinism or the #limits of #brain research”
Her research covers topics of #philosophy of nature, #philosophy of science and #philosophy of #physics as well as #modern #metaphysics, epistemology and philosophy of technology. She has already published a number of well-known publications on these topics, which are only mentioned here as examples:
