I remember that @AnnaLeptikon is a prominent collector of CogSci map, so I hope she'll enjoy this one too :-)

How do NEUROSCIENCE & PHILOSOPHY interact?
How has their interaction changed over the last 40 years?
@EugenioPetrovi1 provide a long answer to such question in our recent scientometric paper.
An interesting read for all philosohers &/or neuroscientists https://t.co/wuZx7JSc9I

[Marco Viola @MarcoViola3]

From 1980 to 2020, philosophers became much more likely to cite neuroscientists (A). And vice versa (B), although with a smaller magnitude. This increase cannot be explained away with the increase of share of philosophical (C) and neuroscientific (D) papers in the WoS database.

Oggi su @ilmanifesto scrivo di uno degli aspetti meno compresi della rivoluzione digitale: gli spazi in cui ci troviamo e gli oggetti che ci circondano stanno diventando infedeli. O, meglio, fedeli a qualcun altro.
