EBD Blog

I’ve been meaning to post this for quite some time and, as I prepared for tomorrow’s class, I just now remembered it.

For any (of my two) readers who are interested in the hypothesis about mirror neurons’ connection to Autism, in October of 2007 Professor Marco Iacoboni of UCLA gave a pair of talks in the distinguished lecture series hosted by the M.I.N.D. Institute at U.C. Davis. Although it is probably the second one that will interest readers of EBD blog, the first one provides very valuable background concepts. Set aside time, as these are each about an hour long.
