Neuroscience continues to be one of the most complex subjects, but Dr David Eagleman is here to decode it all. As a renowned neuroscientist at Stanford University and a best-selling author, he’s best known for his ground-breaking research on brain plasticity. David co-founded two venture-backed companies, Neosensory and BrainCheck, and is also the author of two books that have inspired millions of people to think differently about the very essence of their own minds. The New York Times even praises him as ‘The Neuroscientist Who Makes Neuroscience Look Like Fun’. From his own journey to realising his calling in neuroscience, to exploring the potential of a ‘doppelganger brain’, David leaves no stone unturned in this episode. So, join us as we explore the fascinating world of brain health - from the influence of diet to the groundbreaking advancements of Elon Musk's Neuralink brain chip. If you’re intrigued by the mind’s mysteries, this episode is a must-listen. Tune in now to unlock the secrets of your brain with Dr David Eagleman!
