On October 21th at 7:00 pm in Limassol, biologist Alexander Panchin will give a lecture titled "The Brain is Manipulating You: Critical Thinking for Russell's Teapots."

During the lecture, Alexander Panchin will entertainingly discuss the errors in thinking that often underlie common misconceptions and pseudoscience.

The lecture's goal is to encourage more reflection on the correctness of our reasoning and arguments that we hear from others.

Alexander Panchin: "If I were given exactly one and a half hours, across all educational institutions in the world, to increase rationality on a planetary scale, I would give this lecture."

After the lecture, there will be a Q&A session where participants can ask their questions. Guests will also have the opportunity to purchase books by Alexander Panchin with his autograph and take a photo with the author.

Alexander Panchin holds a candidate degree in biological sciences, is a laureate of the "Enlightener" award, author of novels and popular science books, a member of the Russian Academy of Sciences Commission on combating pseudoscience and the board of the "Evolution" enlightenment fund, and the author of a popular YouTube channel.

The event will take place in Russian on October 21th at 7:00 pm at the Crowne Plaza Limassol coworking space, located at Promachon Eleftherias 2, Limassol.
