Andrew Humberman BioSnap a weekly updated Biography.

Andrew Huberman has been at the center of several notable stories and public appearances over the past few days, underscoring both his growing influence and his willingness to wade into less-charted territory for a prominent scientist. The biggest headline is that during a live appearance at the Summit of Greatness, Huberman made an unexpectedly candid revelation that prayer—not just meditation or science-backed protocols—dramatically transformed his own mental health. According to the School of Greatness podcast, recorded on September 29th, 2025, he described how faith-based practices not only felt meaningful but, in his words, actively restructure the brain for enhanced well-being, clearer thinking, and deeper peace. For someone known as arguably the most respected neuroscientist in the world, this admission created an immediate buzz across social media platforms and was picked up by major outlets as a potential turning point in the science-spirituality conversation. He elaborated that cynicism is a “brain killer” and promoted curiosity as the superpower for lifelong learning, going as far as to detail new neuroscience-backed protocols for optimizing cortisol rhythms and sleep, and even replacing classic meditation with what he calls activation techniques—a move that is sure to spark debate within health circles.

Huberman’s latest business move also garnered attention: he officially announced the pre-orders for his book Protocols: An Operating Manual for the Human Body, promising a compendium of practical, evidence-based routines for physical and mental health, building on the audience he has cultivated through his podcast and YouTube presence.

Speaking of YouTube, on September 25th, Huberman released a new Huberman Lab Essentials episode titled “Using Your Nervous System to Enhance Your Immune System.” In this episode, he tackled the interaction between the immune and nervous systems and provided practical tools to boost immunity, from targeted supplementation to specific breathing protocols. He even disclosed that he personally uses cyclic hyperventilation, a style of breathing similar to the famed Wim Hof method, to ward off illness—another example of his signature blend of hard science and actionable advice.

Social media chatter has focused heavily on Huberman’s comments around prayer and brain health, with medical professionals and self-help influencers debating the merits of integrating faith-based practices into mainstream mental health care. His latest videos have racked up hundreds of thousands of views within days, and posts on Instagram and TikTok trumpet his bold positions on optimism and neuroplasticity.

Public appearances, including an interactive Q&A tied to his newest episode, have kept his name trending in wellness circles. While there has been a minor undercurrent of skepticism among diehard empiricists, the response from broader communities appears overwhelmingly positive, viewing Huberman’s openness to faith as both relatable and biographically significant—potentially marking a new chapter in how he is perceived by both scientific and general audiences. No major controversies or business scandals have surfaced in the past week, leaving the focus squarely on his evolving public persona and expanding wellness empire.
