In this episode, Carolina and Clara compare different scientific planes of understanding! Carolina coming from a biochemistry background and Clara from a neuroscience background, have over time realised these fields have distinct ways of researching science and lead to a different way of thinking about science. While with biochemistry, understanding the structure may lead to understanding the function; with neuroscience it’s not so linear. Neuroscience appears to require an understanding from several different planes: the molecular, the electrophysiological, the anatomical, behavioural, and potentially even philosophical?

In this episode, Carolina and Clara explore the hippocampus, a brain region that is critical for the formation of memories. The hippocampus is thought to carry out complex computations, which has made it a key focus for theoretical neuroscience. What are some theories for hippocampal function? And how do hippocampal computations transform information to enable memory formation?

This episode we are joined with special guest and young neuroscientist, Johanna Jaansoo, as we discuss plasticity of sensory modalities in response to sensory deprivation. How are sensory modalities (visual, auditory, tactile, etc.) connected to each other? How is the development of the senses connected to the development of cognition and high-order functions? What capacity do sensory modalities have to change after deprivation of sensory inputs (e.g. blindness, deafness). How can knowledge about cross-modal plasticity be used to improve therapeutics for neurodevelopmental and neurodegenerative disorders?

In this episode, Carolina and Clara discuss more examples of science misinformation. From collagen to therapy apps, this episode focuses on how the lifestyle industry uses science misinformation to sell products and ultimately propogates the spread of scientifically false beliefs.

Sometimes called the "Wood Wide Web", mycelium or mycorrhizal networks are a form of fungi that have an incredible capacity to connect plants and transport nutrients and signals. How do mycelia contribute to plant intelligence? Join Carolina and Clara as they compare mycelium and neural networks, plant and human intelligence, taking inspiration from the work of Paul Stamets, Suzanne Simard, and others.

In this episode Carolina and Clara discuss the philosophy of machine learning with Alex Mussgnug who is doing a PhD at the University of Edinburgh in the epistemology of machine learning. They compare computational models of machine learning and how it is applicable to science.

This week, Carolina and Clara dicuss why and how science can be misinformed and miscommunicated, using the example of human-animal chimeras. What are human-animal chimeras, really? How have they been misconceived in the media? Are scientists evil? Join us as we debunk science misinformation and conspiracy theories about human-animal chimeras.

Carolina and Clara discuss the evidence for and against consuming caffeine. As the most consumed psycho-stimulant beverage with billions of cups of coffee consumed every day it is relevant to know just how good or harm drinking coffee is having on your body!

In this episode Carolina and Clara discuss with special guest Liza Rozenberg, a Princeton graduate in Physics, how we understand the world through physics. Addressing questions such as: Can we expand our mathematical toolbox and if so, would it allow us to understand the world better? How can we study something from inside the system of interest (the world, the brain), our probing interferes with the state of the system in the first place. “What we observe is not nature in itself but nature exposed to our method of questioning.” - Werner Heisenberg Want to learn and interact with us more?

Silence: In the Age of Noise by Erling Kegge is the inspiration for today’s episode! Carolina and Clara discuss the book and the value of silence in an age of noise, with a neuroscientific lens. “There is a love no one remembers. In a way it is the silence that speaks”- Jon Fosser
