Brain Matters the Podcast
Month
The Pulse profiled the work of recent Brain Matters guest Maria Geffen.
“Based on the context under which you hear some sounds, you need to respond to it in a different way,” Geffen said. “I can hear the honking — that’s probably more important, because I don’t want to die right now.”
Wow! Brain Matters has been featured on PlayerFM’s list of ‘Best Neuroscience Podcasts’ alongside a few really great shows. So exciting!
