Biologist Alexander Panchin in Vienna: "Free Will. The Illusion of Your Self"
took place · 23 Oct 2026
die HausWirtschaft, Vienna, Austria
Description was written before the event
Alexander Panchin, biologist and science communicator, invites you to explore what really lies behind the concept of free will. Do you actually make decisions on your own, or is your "choice" the product of invisible brain processes set in motion long before the feeling of "I decided" ever surfaces?
The talk will look at how modern brain research challenges long-held ideas about consciousness, the authorship of our actions, and the boundaries of personal identity.
