Baroness Susan Greenfield

Here is the latest blog from Baroness Greenfield. Baroness Greenfield became the first woman to be invited to give the Royal Institution CHRISTMAS LECTURES and has subsequently made a wide range of TV and radio broadcasts, including a major six-part series on the brain and mind, broadcast on BBC-2 in June 2000. Baroness Greenfield shares how technology affects our personalities by affecting our neurochemistry. Drawing a parallel with climate change, she calls this challenge for humanity "mind change". But far from being a Luddite, Baroness Greenfield sees a chance for humanity to benefit from embracing some of the changes these technologies will bring - just as long as we make sure to counteract the dangerous ones.
