Helena Hartmann is a European Neuroscientist or a “Euroscientist” if you will. Her doctoral research is a deep dive into why you feel other people's pain in your brain – AKA empathy. She is deeply interested in the role that empathy has in making us engage in prosocial acts like helping and supporting others and engaging in organizational citizenship behaviors. She also studies the human sensory awareness that researchers call interoception - a lesser-known sense that helps you understand and feel what's going on inside of your body. Her research is tremendously interesting and has great implications for emotional intelligence, mindfulness, how we vicariously process various forms of pain and what we do with this information.

I recently had the pleasure of discussing all of this with Helena. We also discussed making science relevant and accessible to everyone and how to apply resiliency theory to successfully adapt to the conditions of social isolation & covid.

Helena and I seemed to laugh a lot as we learned from one another and I have few doubts that you'll enjoy listening to the conversation that we had.
