About this listen
Neuroscience is tricky… to say the least. Dedicated scientists have been exploring the organ since ancient times but there is still so much we don’t know about what goes on between our ears. In part 1 of our brain series, host Dr. Samantha Yammine speaks with neuroscientist Dr. Daniel Toker about his research on consciousness through experimenting with lab-grown organoids. He explains what we can learn about the brain from better understanding consciousness. Then, Sam explores why our brains love to fixate on the mistakes we make and whether or not we can actually perceive more than five senses in our bodies.
