This paper explores the intersection between neuroscience and philosophy, particularly in the areas of moral philosophy and philosophy of mind. While traditional philosophical questions, such as those relating to free will and moral motivation, have been subject to much debate, the rise of neuroscience has led to a reinterpretation of these questions considering empirical evidence. This has led to tensions between those who believe neuroscience can provide definitive answers to very complex philosophical questions and those who are skeptical about the scope of these studies. However, the paper argues that neuroscientists and philosophers can work together to generate major scientific and social advances. To contribute to bridge the gap, in this paper we expose the complexity of moral experience from a philosophical point of view and point to two great challenges and gaps to cover from neurosciences.
本文探讨神经科学与哲学的交叉领域，特别是在道德哲学和心灵哲学方面。虽然诸如与自由意志和道德动机相关的传统哲学问题一直备受争议，但神经科学的兴起促使人们根据经验证据对这些问题进行重新诠释。这导致了两派之间的紧张关系，一派认为神经科学能够为非常复杂的哲学问题提供明确答案，另一派则对这些研究的范围持怀疑态度。然而，本文认为神经科学家和哲学家可以共同努力，取得重大的科学和社会进步。为了有助于弥合差距，在本文中，我们从哲学角度揭示了道德体验的复杂性，并指出了神经科学需要应对的两大挑战和差距。
