Can neuroscience help remedy discrimination against members of traditionally subordinated groups that are protected under U.S. anti-discrimination law?
Ever thought about how science can tackle societal issues like discrimination? In this engaging episode of 'Lobes and Robes', Dr. Terry Davidson and Prof. Susan Carle dive into a lively debate on the role of neuroscience in understanding and addressing discrimination. They explore how brain science might inform policies to combat bias against traditionally marginalized groups protected under U.S. anti-discrimination law.
The hosts navigate the tricky terrain of applying neuroscience data to policy, discussing the influence of unconscious thoughts on behavior and the complexities of social interactions. They also touch on the potential of neuroscience to develop interventions for bias and highlight the importance of separating bias from moral judgment. With a mix of friendly banter and deep insights, this episode sheds light on the fascinating intersection of brain science and anti-discrimination law.
It's a must-listen for anyone interested in how cutting-edge research can contribute to a fairer society.
