    This is a devoted fan’s homage website to Robert Sapolski, who I think refers to himself as a *human behavioral biologist*. It includes links to a full series of lectures given by Sapolski at Stanford. I watched the first one, which is the course introduction.. He talks about
    – thinking in categories, why we do it and how it can be problematic
    – reviews some of the “wrong-headed” views of eminent professors w.r.t. lobotomies, behaviorism, racial genocide, ….
    – touches on epigenetics and I assume will cover more on this in later lectures.
    Could be interesting to watch the series for a view of how different groups in academia are thinking.
