In today's episode Carolina and Clara are joined with special guest Dr Ginger Campbell, who hosts the award-winning Brain Science podcast. They discuss the importance of communicating neuroscience and how having an understanding of how the brain works helps both individuals and societies to have more compassion towards one another, based on Dr Ginger Campbell's book "The Unconscious Origins of Certainty". Biases and beliefs are often down to dopamine-based reward systems. Our education systems tend to be built upon a binary "right or wrong" way of thinking, which fuels our reward systems to look for the right answers. While this structure is essential to learning, what are the negative outcomes of such a way of thinking? "People are the most unpredictable thing you'll encounter in life", so what insights can neuroscience provide to help us understand human nature better?
