About our curator, Ben Kuebrich:

Fascinated by the brain, he spent ten years studying neuroscience and working in laboratories at institutions like Emory University, MIT, and the University of Tokyo. During that time Ben also fell in love with listening to radio and podcasts and started his career in audio doing research and fact-checking for the podcast Science Vs. He hopes to bring the objectivity and rigor that he honed as a scientist and fact-checker to his reporting at HPPR.
