Part 2 - Federico Faggin is one of the greatest luminaries of high technology alive today. A physicist by education, he is the inventor of the microprocessor and the MOS silicon gate technology, both of which underlie the modern world's entire information technology. With the knowledge and experience of a lifetime in cutting-edge fields, Federico now turns his attention to consciousness and the nature of reality, sharing with us his profound insights on the classical and quantum worlds, artificial intelligence, life and the human mind. In this book, he elaborates on an idealist model of reality, produced after years of careful thought and direct experience, according to which nature's most fundamental level is that of consciousness as a quantum phenomenon, while the classical physical world consists merely of evocative symbols of a deeper reality.

Daniela Schiller is professor of neuroscience and psychiatry at the Icahn School of Medicine at Mount Sinai, where she directs the Laboratory of Affective Neuroscience. Her research focuses on how the brain represents and modifies emotional memories. Her lab has delineated the neural computations of threat learning, how the brain modifies emotional memories using imagination, and the dynamic tracking of affective states and social relationships.

Schiller earned her Ph.D. at Tel Aviv University, where she developed a laboratory model for negative symptoms of schizophrenia. She then completed a postdoctoral fellowship at New York University, where she examined methods for emotional memory modification in the human brain. She joined Mount Sinai in 2010.

Schiller’s work has been published in numerous scholarly journals, including Nature, Neuron, Nature Neuroscience and the Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences. She is a Fulbright Fellow and a Kavli Frontiers of Science Fellow, and she has received many awards, including the New York Academy of Sciences’ Blavatnik Award and the Klingenstein-Simons Fellowship Award in the Neurosciences.

Daniela Schiller, a neuroscience and psychiatry professor, shares insights on affective neuroscience, memory, trauma, and the interconnectedness of body and mind. This episode explores how our emotional states influence memory, the malleability of memories, and innovative approaches to healing trauma.
