Neuroverse episodes
- 15. Noise in the Brain
In this episode, Carolina and Clara discuss how spontaneous brain activity creates "noise". The same type of noise is found throughout physical and biological systems, such as in seismic activity and even stock market fluctuations. Could this enigmatic noise have a role in perception and cognition? We explore theories by Edmund Rolls, Georg Northoff, and others!

21 min - 14. Reductionism
In this episode, Carolina and Clara discuss what Reductionism means in the context of visual art and in the context of the brain. Based on Nobel prize winning neuroscientist Eric Kandel's book (Reductionism in Art and Brain Science) we explore how the brain perceives abstract art, what it can reveal about how our brains function, and whether a reductionist research approach is valuable.

21 min - 13. Oxygen- Friend or Foe: a Debate
Why did we evolve to need oxygen? Carolina and Clara debate whether oxygen is the best element for metabolic reactions and whether the volatile nature of reactive oxygen species is beneficial or damaging. Could we have evolved differently?

23 min - 12. Polyvagal Theory and Yoga
In this episode, Carolina and Clara discuss Polyvagal Theory, a theory conceived by Dr. Stephen Porges that addresses neurobiology, psychology, and evolutionary mechanisms and ultimately proposes an important role for the vagus nerve in emotion regulation and social behaviour. What can this theoretical model explain about the evolution of human social behaviour? And how is it related to ancient yogic philosophy? Join us to find out!

23 min - 11. The Mind-Muscle Connection (with Jubilent Amalendran)
In this episode we discuss the connection between muscle and mind with a special guest, Jubilent Amalendran, junior doctor and calisthenics lover. What is meant of the mind-muscle connection? How can conscious control of movement change our muscles? What is the importance of movement as a reflection of the mind at any one point in time? Join us as we discuss these fascinating questions!

27 min - 10. Materialism and Dualism
In this episode, Carolina and Clara introduce Materialistic and competing Dualistic philosophies of mind. They explore why consciousness is so difficult to understand (the hard problem) and whether mental phenomena are better explained by material or non-material processes, using well-known thought experiments to do so!

23 min - 9. Is Sleep Deprivation Fatal?
Have you ever wondered why humans spend 1/3 of their lives asleep? What happens if you don’t sleep? Carolina and Clara discuss some existing evidence for how lack of sleep can kill, especially focusing on Dragana Regulja’s research.

22 min - 8. Sleep, Memory & Forgetting
In this episode, Carolina and Clara discuss why sleep is so important! They explore how sleep is needed for both memory consolidation and decluttering the brain of unimportant information, and how memory can be experimentally manipulated during sleep.

24 min - 7. Structure-Function Relationships
Does structure determine function? In this episode Carolina and Clara discuss different studies that have swayed the structure-function argument into one side or another. Can this argument be solved or is it inherently cyclical? Be sure to listen to find out! They also talk about chaperones, protein folding, phase separation, whether neuronal structures lead to molecular and behavioural outputs, and much more!

21 min - 6. Breathing, the Brain, Being
Have you ever wondered how the breath and the mind are connected? In this episode, Carolina and Clara explore the neuroscience of breathing: how the rhythm of breathing influences brain-wide activity, providing a scaffold for the transfer of information across the brain, and how breathing influences our attentional and interoceptive states, which ultimately define our experience of being.
