    [Summer Rerelease] The Entropic Brain

    This week we're revisiting our episode on the entropic brain, where we discuss entropy, chaos, and disorder in the context of brain activity. In an attempt to reduce the amount of disorder, our brains may stick to a structured framework of activity, limiting its capacity to be creative and generate new ideas or connections. How does this influence our perception of reality? And how can we overcome this natural "negentropic" tendency? Listen to find out! --- We hope you enjoy the episode!

    101. Causality

    In today's episode Carolina and Clara probe at what causality means, both in a philosophical sense and a scientific one. We talk about how neuroscience can probe at causality, the fine line between correlation and causation, how hypotheses are and should be derived, validation and falsification, and more! --- We hope you enjoy the episode!

    [Summer Rerelease] Breathing, the Brain, Being

    Welcome to our special summer rerelease series! Carolina and Clara take a trip down memory lane with a special series dedicated to their older episodes, including ones you may have missed! Have you ever wondered how the breath and the mind are connected? In this episode, Carolina and Clara explore the neuroscience of breathing: how the rhythm of breathing influences brain-wide activity, providing a scaffold for the transfer of information across the brain, and how breathing influences our attentional and interoceptive states, which ultimately define our experience of being.  --- We hope you enjoy the episode!

    100. The Science of Sleep - From Classical Theories to Novel Insights (with Dr Raffaele Sarnataro)

    In this episode (our 100th!) we talk to Dr Raffaele Sarnataro, a postdoctoral researcher in Gero Miesenböck's group at the Centre for Neural Circuits and Behaviour in Oxford University, who is investigating the neurobiological basis of sleep using fruit flies (Drosophila Melanogaster) as a model organism. Raffaele shares with us his latest research on a novel role for mitochondria, in a small specialised population of neurons in the fly brain, to regulate the need for sleep. He also dives into the classical theories of why we sleep, whether the purpose of sleep is universal and evolutionarily conserved, how metabolism is related to sleep across organisms, and how sleep is related to body versus brain. Listen to find out more about the often overlooked mystery of sleep. --- We hope you enjoy the episode!

    99. Children, Adolescents & Social Media (with Dr Jennifer Wills Lamacq)

    In today's episode Carolina and Clara are joined by Dr Jennifer Wills Lamacq to discuss how adolescents and children are socialised, affected by social media, and how governmental policies affect the landscape of children's social development. This episode was inspired by the Netflix series "Adolescents" which brought to light crucial issues to be discussed regarding the impact schools and social media has on a child's upbringing. We discussed safe practices to educate children in the online world, how children are being socialised in school, the importance of independence outside the home and children-friendly policies.

    98. Ontology of Cognition- How Should We Define How We Think and Function?

    In this episode, Carolina and Clara dive into the question of cognitive ontology. From philosophers like Plato, to psychologists like Thomas Reid, and phrenologists like Franz Gall, many have set out to define how we think and how we should categorise the functions that make up human cognition. While some functions such as sensory processing or memory are intuitively well-defined, others such as empathy or hierarchical processing remain more cryptic. With the emergence of modern neuroscience, the story only gets more complicated, as brain activity of different areas does not neatly fit with our set of cognitive functions- while some areas are specialised for functions, like the amygdala being involved in emotional processing, most areas are actually multifunctional. How can we integrate our neuroscientific knowledge of how the brain functions into our psychological understanding of our mind? Listen to find out more! --- We hope you enjoy the episode!

    97. Geometric Collective Decision Making (with Professor Ian Couzin)

    In today's episode Clara and Carolina are joined by Professor Ian Couzin who is the Director of the Max Planck Institute of Animal Behavior and a Professor and Director (Speaker) of the German Research Foundation (DFG) Excellence Cluster. His work aims to reveal the principles that underlie evolved collective behavior, using a wide range of biological systems, from insect swarms to schooling fish, primate groups and humans. In this episode, we discuss the variety of collective behaviours seen across species and probe at some of the key questions in the field including: to what extent can computational models portray the dynamics of collective decision making? What is the purpose of collective behaviours? Do the same rules guide collective behaviours across species? Listen to learn more! --- We hope you enjoy the episode!

    96. Tools for Looking into the Brain: How to Make the Most of Your Postdoc (with Dr Ana Dorrego-Rivas)

    This week we bring to you another episode of Tools for Looking into the Brain, our mini series in collaboration with Scientifica, where we discuss all sorts of neuroscience methods and the reality of academia. In this episode we are joined by Dr Ana Dorrego-Rivas, a neuroscientist and postdoctoral researcher at the Centre for Developmental Neurobiology (King's College London). Ana shares with us her research journey so far and what led her to pursue research into the development of the olfactory bulb, and the role of interactions between different subcellular compartments (axons and dendrites). Ana also shares her experience of learning new things, applying for fellowships, and seeking opportunities as a postdoc. We also talk about how PhDs compare to postdocs, where publications fit in, and making the transition from postdoc to PI. --- We hope you enjoy the episode!
