The Moscow Center for Consciousness Studies (MCCS) is hosting a summer school devoted to the problem of Free Will on August 11th – 25th 2014.
The summer school will be led by the well-known expert Prof. John Martin Fischer of the University of California, Riverside.
Graduate students and recent PhDs are invited to submit applications to participate in this summer school. For two weeks, you will be hosted by MCCS in a beautiful area on the Volga River near Moscow.
