Get Learnt

Today we talked with Mike about the current state of science and academia before we delved into his research, and what it means to be a "basic" scientist. Mike tells us about different cognitive responses to different stimulus(in particular seeing how people react to pain). We make sure to stop and explain what certain things are, such as top-down vs bottom-up responses; so that everyone can enjoy the podcast. Mike is a graduate student at McMaster University, and a super passionate scientist. We are looking forward to having him back on in the future, and seeing his career in science continue to blossom. --- Send in a voice message: https://anchor.fm/get-learnt/message Support this podcast: https://anchor.fm/get-learnt/support

This week we bring on Rachelle Ho, a PhD Candidate from McMaster University. Rachelle has completed a Master's Degree and a Bachelors Degree from the University of Toronto. We ask Rachelle about neuroscience and fMRI(functional Magnetic Resonance Imaging), psychology, new neurotechnology, concussions and much more! In this episode we tested out an intro and outro - we'd love feedback on them as we develop more. Like the RSearch facebook page and message the page on who we should bring in next! --- Send in a voice message: https://anchor.fm/get-learnt/message Support this podcast: https://anchor.fm/get-learnt/support

Kevin and Jesse bring you into the daily life of a PNB(psychology, neuroscience, and behaviour) Master's Student. We talk about MRI, data analysis, MS, and other science topics but we keep it real and try to add a bit of humor. This is science for everyone!
