The FitMind Podcast: Mental Fitness, Neuroscience & Psychology

CHAPTER

Introduction

Dr. Elena Antinova is a neuroscientist and senior lecturer in psychology at Brunel University London. Her research focuses on the effects of long-term mindfulness meditation practice. She was elected a Mind and Life Research Fellow for her contribution to contemplative science, the highest honor in her field.
