Welcome to this Let’s Talk About Women special!
Over three parts, PhD Student Franziska Weinmar is taking you on site to the Fe/Male Brain Symposium held Tübingen, April 2023. In interviews, three speakers of the symposium, all of which are pioneers in the field of sex and gender research in neuroscience, share their insights on the most recent developments in this field as well as future implication of their research for women and men.
In this episode Franziska is talking to Prof. Daphna Joel from the Tel Aviv University in Israel. Among others, she is known for her research on the theory of the mosaic brain about which she has also written a book (English: "Gender Mosaic - Beyond the Myth of the Male and Female Brain"; German: "Das Gehirn hat kein Geschlecht")
A huge thanks goes to Prof Daphna Joel, Dr. Claudia Barth & Prof Markus Hausmann for taking their time for these interviews!
Also, props to Gloria Matte Bon for being the doorkeeper, ensuring that the recordings on site at the symposium were not disturbed.

Welcome back to Let’s Talk About Women!
In this episode, PhD Student Franziska Weinmar is talking to Dr. Ann-Christin Kimmig about a hot topic: oral contraceptives. We cover the effects on hormone levels, the brain, mood, libido, and socio-emotional functions and what happens if you stop using the pill. Based on state-of-the-art research Ann-Christin and Franziska are trying to navigate and disentangle the importance of oral contraceptives, what has been disregarded in the past, what is known today – and what not. Also, we shed light on “the next big question” for research on oral contraceptives.

Welcome to "Let's Talk About Women" - a science communication podcast of the International Research Training Group (IRTG) 2804 about "Women's Mental Health Across the Reproductive Lifespan".
In this pilot episode PhD Student Franziska Weinmar is talking to Prof. Inger Sundström Poromaa (Uppsala University) and Prof. Birgit Derntl (University of Tübingen) who collaborated and initiated the IRTG 2804, which is dedicated to research on women's mental health across the reproductive years.
Listen to our kick-off, in which Inger and Birgit highlight the need for research on women's hormonal transition phases and what can be gained from this in the future.

How do hormonal fluctuations shape the brain and mental health across the lifespan? What happens during puberty, pregnancy and perimenopause? And how can new insights into hormonal transitions…
On Let’s Talk About Women, neuroscientist Dr. Franziska Weinmar talks with leading researchers from around the world about women’s mental and brain health, where hormones, brain and mind meet. From hormonal contraception and PMDD to the parental brain, sleep, stress and the menopausal transition - each episode takes you from the background through the state of the art to what comes next, with perspectives from neuroscience, psychology, biology and medicine.
Alongside these in-depth topic episodes, the podcast also puts the spotlight on early-career researchers: the next generation of scientists, their work, and their paths into science.
Evidence-based, warm and curious. For researchers, clinicians and everyone who wants to learn more about women’s brain and mental health.
About your host: Franziska is a neuroscientist of women’s mental health and psychoneuroendocrinology and a postdoctoral researcher at the University of Tübingen. She founded the podcast in 2023 during her PhD in the International Research Training Group (IRTG) 2804 (Tübingen × Uppsala).
