Episode notes

Toxicology is awesome i love it it does give me general anxiety but it's okay. As a scientist it's so interdisciplinary like i'm getting the opportunity to study neuroscience because of toxicology. I think just from my experience you don't have to have experience if you are curious and you are excited you can study itIt is not unattainable and we're all rooting for you What about the hardest thing about what you do? Well it is the hardest but also the best part is like every day i get to learn something new.

I’m at the airport and there are hundreds of brain scientists everywhere. So I swallowed my dignity/anxiety and approached strangers about the neuroscience they do. The result is a bushel of info on cravings, sleep, consciousness, addiction, dopamine, monogamy, Ozempic, toxins in your brain and so much more with: Georgia Kirkpatrick, Isabella Montana, Dr. Marissa Co, Chancey Garrett, Noah Millman, Pique Choi, Dr. Barbara Sorg and Elizabeth Plunk. Oops, we just made a bunch of new friends. All thanks to poster tubes, a.k.a: nerdurdurs.
