The Physics of Sentience

Speaker: Professor Karl Friston
University College London

Karl Friston is one of the UK’s pre-eminent neuroscientists and theoretical neurobiologists who has made significant contributions to the field of neuroscience.

He’s also a very personable and able public speaker.

In the science of sentience (the quality of being able to experience feelings), he has pioneered ground-breaking research. He is known for his work on the theory of brain function and the development of the “free energy principle” as a unifying theory of brain function.

Friston’s work has had a significant impact on our understanding of perception, action, and learning in the brain. His theories have applications not only in neuroscience but also in fields such as artificial intelligence and machine learning.
