Our brains are complex, evolved, and befuddling things—with some serious limitations. Take, for example, our ability to respond to climate change, an enemy that Daniel Gilbert, PhD, said “is a beautifully crafted threat designed to go under our natural radar, to be invisible.”
Gilbert will explore this topic on April 3 at CU Denver for the 2023 Chancellor’s Distinguished Lecture. The acclaimed social psychology scholar has a New York Times best-selling book on happiness and has given dynamic TED talks seen by millions (his wisdom has even been featured on a Starbucks cup).
