Another example for shitty science journalism - or at least for shitty headline writing. OF course they don't identify the "mechanism behind free" will or any such nonsense. They observed that some brain region gets activated before decisions to change focus. I'm no neurologist, so I can't tell how new or interesting this finding is, but the title claim is clearly overhyped.
The fool hath said in his heart, There is a God. They are corrupt, they have done abominable works, there is none that doeth good.
