32. Communicating Neuroscience in the 21st Century (with Dr. Ginger Campbell)
09/29/22 • 29 min
1 Listener
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?

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 us as individuals and societally to have more compassion towards one another. Biases and beliefs are often down to dopamine-reward systems. The binary "right or wrong" answer structure education is built upon is restrictive of mistakes being made, which its essential to learning. "People are the mot unpredictable thing you'll encounter in life", emphasizes our social nature and how the best way to keep your mind sharp, flexible and open minded is to be social.

33. The Gut-Microbiome-Brain Axis
Within each of us exists a gut microbiome- trillions of bacteria, virus, fungi, and other microorganisms living in our gut. Research is increasingly revealing a role for the gut microbiome in health and disease. Changes to the gut microbiome have been linked to several psychiatric, behavioural, and neurodegenerative brain disorders, from depression to autism to dementia. But how can these tiny microorganisms regulate what is happening in our brains? In this episode, Carolina and Clara explore what we know about the elusive yet emerging gut-microbiome-brain axis, and how this knowledge could contribute to developing therapies for brain disorders.
