Podcasts:
August 2013: We showcase state-of-the-art connectomics, get lost in the fiendish complexity of a single neuron, learn how practice makes efficient, and keep our eyes on the prize with dopamine.
July 2013: The network of genes behind Alzheimer's disease, the chequered history of hypnosis, and how to make new cells for damaged ears.
June 2013: A super-high resolution human brain atlas, how to build a brain from a tiny pool of cells, and are drug laws censoring science?
May 2013: This month, why we sleep so much, stem cells as therapy, and a visit to an anechoic chamber with a neuroscientist and a poet.
April 2013: Making the brain see-through, treating disorders with electrical impulses, wonky statistics riddle neuroscience, and reaction to the new BRAIN initiative.
March 2013: Picking apart anxiety, how filmmakers draw inspiration from mental illness, and imaging all the neurons in a single brain.
February 2013: Three classic neuroscience topics this month: memory, fear and attention. Tune in for more on fearless patients, sharpened vision and false memories.
January 2013: Sherlock Holmes' prodigious mind, a rethink of how our brain controls movement, and how the zebrafish is neuroscience's new muse.
December 2012: How the sins of the father affect the offspring, an update on progress in autism research, and a shake-up of the molecules involved in learning and memory.
November 2012: This month on the show, seeing with your ears, brain changes in lonely mice, how light levels affect mood, and cognitive enhancement in the workplace.
October 2012: A natural history of hallucinations, a call to arms for psychologists, the environmental triggers of multiple sclerosis and some neurons with hidden identities.
September 2012: Charting the brain's territories, what new neurons are doing in the adult brain, predicting the future success of neuroscientists, and can neuroscience help build a better society?
August 2012: Learning during sleep, the brain’s diary and autocorrect facility, how to ground psychiatry in biology, and the neurons that calm things down.
July 2012: In this episode: an update on brain decoding, vaccinating against drugs of abuse, and a report from a mind-melting meeting about consciousness.
June 2012: Highlights from the Organisation for Human Brain Mapping meeting in Beijing, China. Join Kerri as she talks language and hearing, gets some helpful neurofeedback, boosts the speed and resolution of brain scanning and finds two new brain areas.
