If you like learning, especially about Science – I recommend that you check out the Huberman Laboratory podcast, produced by the Huberman Lab at Stanford University. A great resource for anyone interested in staying up to date on the latest developments in neuroscience; the podcast features discussions and interviews with leading experts and researchers in the field, exploring topics such as brain plasticity, perception, and consciousness. It is remarkable how the guests break down complex ideas and theories in a way that is easy to understand for listeners who may not have a background in neuroscience. They also provide real-world examples and anecdotes that help to illustrate the concepts being discussed and make them more relatable.
The following episodes are my personal favourites:
Tools for Setting & Achieving Goals with Dr. Emily Balcetis, PhD, Professor of Psychology at New York University (NYU). The conversation revolves around how our perception of the world influences our motivation, conceptualisation of goals and emotional states required for setting, pursuing and achieving goals.
Navigating Conflict, Finding Purpose & Maintaining Drive with Lex Fridman, Ph.D., a Research Scientist at the Massachusetts Institute for Technology (MIT), an expert on artificial intelligence (AI) and robotics, who discusses shared human experiences in context of geopolitical conflicts.
