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, evolutionary anthropologist Dr Anna Machin goes behind the scenes of cutting-edge 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 head into labs developing life-changing technologies. From hormones to heartbreak, we’re 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.

    Finale - How Are We Wired?
    Jul 26 2023

    How do our brains get wired up in the womb? Why is it important that nerve cells find the correct partners to form connections? And how has our understanding of this vital process changed over the last 40 years?

    In this special episode, join evolutionary anthropologist Dr Anna Machin and producer Dr Eva Higginbotham as they uncover how our brains get wired up with Brain Prize 2023 winner Professor Christine Holt. Plus, hear them reflect on some of their favourite moments - and key takeaways - from the show.

    With special thanks to Christine Holt.

    Jul 19 2023

    How We're Wired season 1's final episode will be with you next week, but in the meantime, why not check out our sister podcast Ocean Matters?

    Our ocean is the earth's defining feature.

    But the blue of our blue planet is so much more than just a colour. It is rich with life and plays an important role in keeping our planet stable and healthy. Worryingly, we are seeing our ocean change, for the worse.

    In Ocean Matters, you can join oceanographer and physicist Dr Helen Czerski as she meets the scientists who are working to save our ocean and marine life in one of the most remote parts of our planet. Here you can listen to a clip as she takes us on a journey to the deep sea…
