Paul M. Churchland is Professor of Philosophy at UC San Diego. With his wife and philosophical partner, Patricia, he has been an advocate of "eliminative materialism," which claims that many of our common-sense folk-psychological conceptions of our mental lives will fail to have any explanatory role in a mature neuroscience.
