How do our Brains make us who we are?

Every now and then, New Scientist helps a carefully selected commercial partner speak to our audience. Their support helps us produce the high quality journalism we bring you every week. We hope you find today's message relevant and useful.   Love. Touch. Speech. Movement. Consciousness. What do they all have in common? From before birth to after death, our brains underpin our experiences and feelings. They make us who we are. But how? In How We're Wired,  a new podcast from the Bertarelli Foundation, evolutionary anthropologist and New Scientist regular contributor Dr Anna Machin goes behind the scenes of cutting-edge of neuroscience research to uncover the fascinating stories of how our brains grow, change, and ultimately die. Together, we’ll meet the scientists exploding our understanding of how the brain works and we’ll head into labs developing life-changing technologies. From hormones to heartbreak, we’ll be exploring true, personal stories of people’s lives – and brains – from birth to death, taking a deep look at the science that explains us all.   How We’re Wired from The Bertarelli Foundation.   Click below to listen and subscribe so you never miss an episode. * This email has been sent to submitpostforlive@gmail.com * Unsubscribe from further emails relating to selected third party partners from New Scientist. * Read our privacy policy Contact Us   Disclaimer This message is intended only for the use of the person(s) ("Intended Recipient") to whom it is addressed.
