This week, Jim sits down with Nina Kraus, a scientist, inventor, and musician. Nina studies the biology of auditory learning at Brainvolts Auditory Neuroscience Lab at Northwestern University. She began her career measuring responses from single auditory neurons and was one of the first to show that the adult nervous system has the potential for reorganization following learning. Her book, OF SOUND MIND: How Our Brain Constructs a Meaningful Sonic World, communicates these principles in a narrative digestible to any interested reader. OF SOUND MIND is Kraus’ love letter to sound, how sound connects us, its biological impact on making us us, and how it affects the world we live in. We’re so excited to bring you this episode, and make sure to subscribe to the Good Athlete Podcast. And now, Nina Kraus.
