What are we referring to when we talk about the human mind? The brain? Concepts of selfhood or identity? Featuring interdisciplinary perspectives from History, the School of Information, Women’s Studies, and Psychology, this workshop invites conversations about how individuals and groups have thought about and attempted to make sense of the mind. Featuring:

Allura Casanova (Graduate Student, Psychology and Women's Studies, University of Michigan)
Megh Marathe (Graduate Student, School of Information, University of Michigan)
Cheyenne Pettit (Graduate Student, History, University of Michigan)
Henry Cowles (chair, Assistant Professor, History, University of Michigan)
Elizabeth Lunbeck (Professor, History of Science, Harvard University)

This event is part of the Friday Series of the Eisenberg Institute for Historical Studies. It is made possible by a generous contribution from Kenneth and Frances Aftel Eisenberg.
