April 14, 2022 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!

April 07, 2022 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.

March 31, 2022 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.

March 24, 2022 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!

March 17, 2022 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.

March 10, 2022 5. Enzyme-Directed Evolution
This week Carolina and Clara discuss enzymes and enzyme-directed evolution. Enzymes are these incredible biological catalysts present in the natural world. However, with recent research carried out by Frances Arnold, and many others, enzymes have been directed to bind with non-organic matter!

March 03, 2022 4. The Entropic Brain
In this episode, Carolina and Clara discuss entropy, chaos, and disorder in the context of brain activity. In an attempt to reduce the amount of disorder, our brains may stick to a structured framework of activity, limiting its capacity to be creative and generate new ideas or connections. How does this influence our perception of reality? And how can we overcome this natural "negentropic" tendency?

February 24, 2022 3. Predictive Coding
Predictive coding is an emerging framework for understanding how our brains incorporate external stimuli into our internal mental state. With it arises questions such as: How can we distinguish internally generated stimuli from external stimuli? How do we perceive our environment? Can we tell what reality is? In this episode Carolina and Clara explore and discuss these questions!

February 17, 2022 2. The Human Brain, the Evolved Brain
This episode is on evolution and the human brain! Carolina and Clara discuss how the human brain compares to that of other animals, and how understanding the process of evolution can help us better understand the function of the brain.

February 14, 2022 1. Individuality
This episode is on individuality. Carolina and Clara discuss what makes an individual, where one thing starts and another ends. Does an individual need to exist in spacial terms, temporal terms, or both? Is it all relative? Can a group of trees be considered an individual? Listen to hear us ponder these questions.
