Dr Robin Dunbar is a renowned anthropologist, Head of the Social and Evolutionary Neuroscience Research at the University of Oxford, and the mind behind Dunbar's Number. 

In this episode of Rediscovering Connection we explore the secrets of lasting friendship and the intriguing world of social interaction. 

Do you ever wonder what it takes to cultivate and maintain lasting friendships? Have you considered the profound impact of social connections on your wellbeing? 

Robin enlightens us on the significance of having a tight-knit group of friends for optimum health and happiness. Diving into virtual friendships, trust and shared experiences on bonding.

Drawing from personal stories and a wealth of research, we tackle the issue of loneliness in communities and discuss potential ways to combat it.
