The Neuromantics
Season 1
Episode 5
The Neuromantics – writer Will Eaves and neuroscientist Professor Sophie Scott – delve deeply into emotions in this episode, and explore how our feelings are recalled and expressed. Taking as their starting point a poignant poem about the memory of illness, they move onto a Finnish scientific paper on the bodily mapping of emotional responses. But they save their most trenchant discussion for our most commonly encountered non-verbal vocalisation - also known as laughter.
