Getting bored with neuroscience everywhere. Time for neurohumanities.
Had a blast presenting “Body Horror and the Brain” with Neurohumanities Network + Harvard Med. I discussed the mind body problem using David Cronenberg’s work and historical cases which combined neuroscience and cinema. Thanks for having me! Here’s the video if you missed: youtu.be/K9SOa6mo79Q
