Introduction

This week on Minds Matter, we explore research from neuroscience and psychology while occasionally talking through our own personal experiences. We spoke to Dr. Emily Cross about how dance can relate to how we express emotion. She is the primary investigator of the Social Brain in Action Laboratory at Macquarie University. The methods she uses are called a point light display, where you put a light on the dancer's head and each of their joints and then put them in a dark room. This is a new method we haven't spoken about before on the podcast.
