Lecture: “Courage Explained: What Makes the Brave, Brave” 🤖
Speaker: Professor, Dr. Harpreet Dhir 🧠
It's not fearlessness, it's something much more rare. Join this week's Scholar, Professor Harpreet Dhir as she unravels what seperates the heroic from the hesitant. Her lecture will unpack the mind and body when we confront fear, and why courage can take so many forms: standing up for a cause, speaking truth to power, or simply doing what’s right when it’s hardest. From moral courage to phsyical risk-taking, Dr. Dhir's research is a modern study of an ancient virtue.
All curious minds are welcome — come for a beer, stay for the brain food.
