How Our Brains Process Sound with Professor Sophie Scott

Sophie Scott CBE is a professor of good vibes! The Director of Cognitive Neuroscience at UCL is an author, TED talker, and expert on sound, neuroscience, and the weird and wonderful things that happen between your ear and your brain.
Today, on the most meta of Braincare Podcasts, we learn about the bombastic biology of vibrations and electrical signals that help our brains to process sound and discover the astounding physiological responses of listening to the music that we love.
We talk about:

• How your brain turns vibrations into electricity
• Babies and the rhythm of language
• What's happening when we're simultaneously listening and thinking?
• Root psychological causes of some types of tinnitus
• What makes certain sounds set your teeth on edge?
