Research scientist Max Jaderberg explores how “AI analogs” simulate real-world lab work with staggering speed and scale, unlocking new insights on protein folding and drug discovery. Drawing on his experience working on Isomorphic Labs' and Google DeepMind's AlphaFold 3 — an AI model for predicting the structure of molecules — Jaderberg explains how this new technology frees up researchers' time and resources to better understand the real, messy world and tackle the next frontiers of science, medicine and more.

In this series, we will be exploring the multitude of techniques and recent advances in technologies to study the brain.
To kick of the series, in this episode we discuss patch-clamping, a type of electrophysiological technique that is used to measure the electrical activity and biophysical properties of individual neurons. Drawing on some of our personal experiences, we discuss the uses and challenges of patch-clamp, what we can discover from it, how different variations can offer different insights, and the future of patch-clamp. ---

This week we're revisiting our episode on the entropic brain, where we discuss entropy, chaos, and disorder in the context of brain activity. In an attempt to reduce the amount of disorder, our brains may stick to a structured framework of activity, limiting its capacity to be creative and generate new ideas or connections. How does this influence our perception of reality? And how can we overcome this natural "negentropic" tendency? Listen to find out! --- We hope you enjoy the episode!

Play Later Play Later Lists Like LikedIn this episode, Carolina and Clara dive into the question of cognitive ontology. From philosophers like Plato, to psychologists like Thomas Reid, and phrenologists like Franz Gall, many have set out to define how we think and how we should categorise the functions that make up human cognition. While some functions such as sensory processing or memory are intuitively well-defined, others such as empathy or hierarchical processing remain more cryptic. With the emergence of modern neuroscience, the story only gets more complicated, as brain activity of different areas does not neatly fit with our set of cognitive functions- while some areas are specialised for functions, like the amygdala being involved in emotional processing, most areas are actually multifunctional. How can we integrate our neuroscientific knowledge of how the brain functions into our psychological understanding of our mind? Listen to find out more! --- We hope you enjoy the episode!

Play Later Play Later Lists Like LikedIn today's episode, we are joined by Sophie Scott, a professor in cognitive neuroscience and head of the speech communications group at University College London. Her research focuses on the neural basis of vocal communication- how our brains process information in speech and control the production of our voice- as well as the expression of emotion in the voice, especially laughter. In the episode, we discuss human-specific features of laughter and smiling, the importance of laughter in play, the social role of laughter, laughing contagion, and sociocultural influences that shape how we use laughter in everyday life. Listen to find out more about this often overlooked but essential form of communication, and how laughter and human may be a key distinguishing feature of human societies. --- We hope you enjoy the episode!
