In Part II of this conversation, Dr. Bahijja Raimi-Abraham interviews Professor Joseph Devlin (Joe) on various topics related to psychology and consumer behavior. They discuss Joe's research on the relationship between male genitalia size perception and interest in high-end sports cars, the concept of addressable TV advertising, and the impact of extreme experiences on creativity. They also debunk common brain myths, such as the idea that we only use 10% of our brain and the notion of being left-brained or right-brained. Overall, the conversation highlights the importance of understanding human behavior and the role it plays in various aspects of life.

Takeaways

  • Perception of male genitalia size can influence interest in high-end sports cars, particularly for men over 30 who may feel less well-endowed.
  • Addressable TV advertising, which delivers more relevant ads to consumers based on general information about their household, can enhance advertising effectiveness and improve memory and engagement.
  • Engaging in extreme experiences, such as traveling to new environments or participating in unique activities, can enhance creativity and provide a break from day-to-day worries.
  • The myth that we only use 10% of our brain is false; the brain is fully utilized, and learning and improvement are possible throughout life.
  • The idea of being left-brained or right-brained is also a myth; both hemispheres of the brain are involved in analytical and creative processes.
  • During sleep, the brain remains active, performing tasks such as waste removal and healing, while external senses take a break.

Fight the Fakes is a campaign that aims to raise awareness about the dangers of fake medicines. The campaign gives a voice to those who have been personally impacted and shares the stories of those working to put a stop to this threat to public health. It seeks to build a global movement of organizations and individuals who will shine light on the negative impact that fake medicines have on people around the globe and to reduce the negative consequences on individuals worldwide.

King's College London Fight the Fakes was founded by Dr Bahijja Raimi-Abraham in March 2020. King's College London Fight the Fakes is a multidisciplinary undergraduate and postgraduate student-led campaign with a primary focus to raise awareness on the global issue of falsified, counterfeit and substandard anti-infective medicines particularly antimalarials and antibiotics which causes several deaths annually globally.

In addition, the campaign also includes raising awareness of the rising use of falsified, counterfeit and substandard medicines in the United Kingdom.

In this episode (first aired 7th of December 2020) Dr Bahijja Raimi-Abraham discusses the global impact of fake medicines, the Fight the Fakes Campaign, fake COVID products and the COVID19 infodemic with Miriam Holm (for further information - https://www.mondaysciencepodcast.com/episode30 ), co-leading the Secretariat for Fight the Fakes .

Fight the Fakes is a campaign that aims to raise awareness about the dangers of fake medicines. The campaign gives a voice to those who have been personally impacted and shares the stories of those working to put a stop to this threat to public health. It seeks to build a global movement of organizations and individuals who will shine light on the negative impact that fake medicines have on people around the globe and to reduce the negative consequences on individuals worldwide.

King's College London Fight the Fakes was founded by Dr Bahijja Raimi-Abraham in March 2020. King's College London Fight the Fakes is a multidisciplinary undergraduate and postgraduate student-led campaign with a primary focus to raise awareness on the global issue of falsified, counterfeit and substandard anti-infective medicines particularly antimalarials and antibiotics which causes several deaths annually globally.

In addition, the campaign also includes raising awareness of the rising use of falsified, counterfeit and substandard medicines in the United Kingdom.

In this episode Dr Bahijja Raimi-Abraham discusses the global impact of fake medicines, the Fight the Fakes Campaign, fake COVID products and the COVID19 infodemic with Miriam Holm (for further information - https://www.mondaysciencepodcast.com/episode30 ), co-leading the Secretariat for Fight the Fakes .

Fight the Fakes is a campaign that aims to raise awareness about the dangers of fake medicines. The campaign gives a voice to those who have been personally impacted and shares the stories of those working to put a stop to this threat to public health. It seeks to build a global movement of organizations and individuals who will shine light on the negative impact that fake medicines have on people around the globe and to reduce the negative consequences on individuals worldwide.

King's College London Fight the Fakes was founded by Dr Bahijja Raimi-Abraham in March 2020. King's College London Fight the Fakes is a multidisciplinary undergraduate and postgraduate student-led campaign with a primary focus to raise awareness on the global issue of falsified, counterfeit and substandard anti-infective medicines particularly antimalarials and antibiotics which causes several deaths annually globally.

In addition, the campaign also includes raising awareness of the rising use of falsified, counterfeit and substandard medicines in the United Kingdom.

In this episode Dr Bahijja Raimi-Abraham discusses the global impact of fake medicines, the Fight the Fakes Campaign, fake COVID products and the COVID19 infodemic with Miriam Holm (for further information - https://www.mondaysciencepodcast.com/episode30 ), co-leading the Secretariat for Fight the Fakes .
