Dear Brain, Love Gut
from Crossmodal Hosted by The Crossmodal Lab led by Nico Ekanem
You are what you eat, but when was the last time you listened to your gut? In this two-part series, the Crossmodal Lab brings you exclusive, never-before-heard love letters chronicling the complex and often misunderstood relationship between the gut and the brain. The gut tells all in Part One, revealing that this long-distance romance is less one-sided than previously assumed. Cross-body communication is key to keeping the spark alive, emphasizing the importance of connectivity at every level. From the influence of the gut’s microbiome on neuropsychiatric disorders to its crucial role in the evolution of multicellular organisms, there is much more to the story than a straightforward gut-brain axis. With help from expert faculty, can the gut and brain get on the same page? Note: this episode features some hard-to-hear audio from 21m to 1hr7m. Apologies to all parties involved - we salvaged what we could!
