The Eagleman Blog

I was recently asked to list ten books that have "inspired, moved, and enlightened" me. Here's my list:

I had the pleasure of being profiled by my favorite magazine, The New Yorker.  Read the article here.

I recently spent an evening speaking at the Rubin Museum in NYC with punk rock legend, writer, and spoken word artist Henry Rollins.  We discussed the origin, meaning, neuroscience, and bizarreness of dreams. 

I had the honor of being selected as one of Houston Modern Luxury's Men of Style.

I recently performed a CT scan on Neskhons, an Egyptian mummy who I brought to our scanning facilities at Baylor College of Medicine.  

Posthumanism asks what happens when our technologies allow humans to enhance intellectual, physical, and psychological capacities beyond what biology can give us. Think bionics on crack.

We love NPR's Radiolab. If you haven't listened to it yet, you should.  Check out several episodes featuring David's science or writing.

 Hear actress Emily Blunt read the story "The Cast" from Sum.

Brian Eno and I have twice performed a musical version of Sum, once at the Sydney Opera House, and once at the Brighton Dome. Learn more.

I've had the good fortune to collaborate on stage a couple of times with author Philip Pullman.
