Zoe, a Univesity of Sussex student, joints the Hidden Disabilities team (Emily and Riddhi) to discuss her Hidden Disability: Complex Regional Pain Syndrome (CRPS), a poorly understood chronic pain condition that causes intense and debilitating levels of pain.

Zoe discusses her experience with CRPS, the healthcare adn education systems, and what she think needs to be done to maker society more accessible for people with Hidden Disabilities

In this episode of BrainCast, Keira sits down with Dr. Lia Iglesias, a postdoctoral researcher at Aarhus University in Denmark, who spends her days investigating the endocannabinoid system in fear modulation.

Join us for a chat about her narrow miss at a career in philosophy, research into psychedelics for PTSD, and dealing with rejection in academia.

What is the "normal" temperature of the human brain, and why might it not always be 37°C?

In this episode of BrainCast, we had the privilege of speaking with Dr. Nina Rzechorzek, a clinician specialising in human brain temperature and neural circadian rhythms, previously at the MRC Laboratory of Molecular Biology in Cambridge and now working with AstraZeneca.

Tune in for a fascinating talk as Nina shares her experience researching and studying within the fields of neurobiology and physiology and gives insights into her groundbreaking research on sleep cycles, circadian rhythms, and much more!

This episode features a Q&A panel of five undergraduate students who have completed the Junior Research Associate (JRA) Programme here at Sussex, as well as other neuroscience-related summer internships. We’ll be asking them questions submitted by you, giving you the chance to hear about their experiences, and the advice they’d offer to students looking to follow a similar path. So join us as we get an inside look at their journeys!
