Fish Untamed

Ep 158: Your Brain on Nature, with Amy McDonnell


Listen Later

Amy McDonnell is a backpacker and a neuroscientist at the University of Utah. Specifically, Amy studies the effects of time in nature on the brain. In this episode, we discuss how various time spans spent in nature affect the brain, the benefits people self-report after spending time outside, whether directly interacting with nature (for example, fishing) has a more pronounced effect than other kinds of time spent outdoors, and much more.
