In today's episode Carolina and Clara are joined with special guest Dr Ginger Campbell, who hosts the award-winning Brain Science podcast. They discuss the importance of communicating neuroscience and how having an understanding of how the brain works helps both individuals and societies to have more compassion towards one another, based on Dr Ginger Campbell's book "The Unconscious Origins of Certainty". Biases and beliefs are often down to dopamine-based reward systems. Our education systems tend to be built upon a binary "right or wrong" way of thinking, which fuels our reward systems to look for the right answers. While this structure is essential to learning, what are the negative outcomes of such a way of thinking? "People are the most unpredictable thing you'll encounter in life", so what insights can neuroscience provide to help us understand human nature better?

Join Carolina and Clara in today's episode on transcriptomics to translation with Inga Van den Bossche. Inga carried out her undergrad and masters degree in materials science and engineering at Imperial college London and is now a doctoral student since 2022 in Professor Molly Stevens lab at Oxford, researching cellular interfaces and innovative biomaterials for regenerative medicine. We focus on the need for modular precision medicine and how spatial transcriptomics adds a layer of enlightenment to the field.

Today's episode is about fungi & lichen! We are joined by George Mears, a PhD student at Royal Holloway and Kew Gardens. Having carried out research on the evolutionary impact of the lichen lifestyle on the fungal genome during his Masters, George is currently in the LIDo iCASE PhD program, working under Professor Robin Williams to continue biological research into plant-derived products. In this episode, we discuss the ancient symbiotic relationships between plants and fungi and how lichens have impacted fungi evolution and vice versa.

We are back! In today’s episode Carolina and Clara are joined with Olivia Sirley who completed her bachelor’s at the University of the Arts London and wrote her thesis on “What role do dating apps play in finding intimate relationships within contemporary society”. Covering topics such as: dating app dependancy; the accessibility of dating apps; user behaviour; how it changes the nature of relationships; the mediated self; our obsession with finding the one and dopamine addiction loops! ---

Today's episode is the second part of our two-part conversation with Ashlan Reid and Mari Sosa, two neuroscience postdoctoral fellows, who share their experiences finding and fostering community within academia. In this episode, they share their experiences being part of an international community of life science early career researchers, through an organisation called Leading Edge. The Leading Edge Fellows program provides women and non-binary postdocs with an opportunity to meet and connect with others, and training opportunities for mentorship and career development. They talk about how Leading Edge has helped them on their scientific journeys, and what makes it a supportive and positively constructive community. Finally, they discuss the most valuable skills for gaining independent positions within academia, and the importance of giving and gaining mentorship.
Ashlan Reid is currently a postdoctoral fellow in Tony Zador's lab at Cold Spring Harbor, which focuses on understanding the neural circuits in sensory systems, where she researches the development of cortical connections in the auditory cortex. Mari Sosa is currently a postdoctoral fellow in Lisa Giacomo's lab at Stanford University, which focuses on untangling the neural circuitry that encodes spatial information, where she studies mechanisms of learning in the hippocampus.
This episode is part of our series "Tools for Looking into the Brain" which is supported by Scientifica, a leading producer of electrophysiology and imaging equipment. In this series we explore research techniques used in neuroscience, including classical and state-of-the-art techniques. You can find our previous episodes from the series on our page- #64, #71, #75, #81, and #88.

In this week's episode, Carolina and Clara discuss the variety of model organisms that are used in scientific research and the unique advantages of each model. They also touch upon how ethics guides the use of animals in research, including the importance of the NC3Rs. And they explore some of the more unique animal studies that have informed research in unexpected ways, including understanding social learning by studying how bees dance, understanding ageing by studying social castes in ants, and more!

Carolina and Clara discuss with Saron RNA, how to study it, visualise it and how it is the ultimate mediator of life. Saron Tekie carried out her a Bsc in biomedical sciences at the University of Birmingham followed by a Msc in Cancer and Molecular Biology. Saron is now carrying out a PhD in evolutionary genetics in UCL in Gemma Murry lab. Saron also did a project with Konstantin Reder on collagen and RNA.

In today's episode, we are joined by Professor Tiago Branco, a Principal Investigator and Group Leader at the Sainsbury Wellcome Centre at UCL. The Branco lab studies how instinctive decisions are computed from sensory information, and from representations of the world built from experience. In this episode, we discuss what different sorts of approaches (top-down vs bottom-up) you can employ to study the neural basis of behaviour, and how computational models of behaviours can be created and used based on experimental data. Drawing on Professor Branco's extensive experience in the field of neuroscience, we delve into his research past and how it led him to pursue his current focus. We also explore how ethologically relevant naturalistic behaviours can be studied in a lab, and the paradigms that are utilised for this purpose in the context of instinctive defensive behaviours and responses to imminent threat.
