Many of us are entering the new year with a similar goal — to build community and connect more with others. To kick off season five, Priya Parker shares ideas on how to be the host with the most. An expert on building connection, Priya is the author of “The Art of Gathering: How We Meet and Why It Matters.” Whether it's a book club, wedding, birthday or niche-and-obscurely themed party, Priya and Chris talk about how to create meaningful and fun experiences for all of your guests — including yourself.

Episode 40: An Appetite for Discovery 56:50

12 weeks тому56:50

56:50

Dr. Ranier Gutierrez is a Professor in the Department of Pharmacology at CINVESTAV in Mexico City. His life’s work is centered around the basic human need to control our appetite. (For food that is, there is no need to control your appetite for discovery!!! 😉) In his laboratory, they use cutting edge technology to to read minds as the subject eats in order to better understand what is the circuitry that connects feeding to joy.…

49:30

Dr. Michael Krashes is a Senior Investigator at the NIDDK in the NIH. His laboratory is on a mission to decipher the wiring diagram for hunger. His current work seeks to uncover the secrets behind our most primal instincts for survival, such as, the oscillating interactions between self-preservation and food-seeking to optimize behavior. His research is shedding light on the intricate mechanisms that govern our relationship with food.…

Episode 38: The Bloodthirsty Brain 35:54

17 weeks тому35:54

35:54

Dr. Laura Duvall (Columbia) investigates the neurobiological mechanisms underlying mosquito behavior, including the regulation of host-seeking after blood-feeding, circadian and seasonal biting rhythms, and mating behavior. She employs pharmacological and genetic approaches to uncover the neuropeptide pathways and anatomical circuits involved in these behavioral switches, shedding light on fundamental questions regarding mosquito biology. The laboratory also works to address the signaling mechanisms responsible for inhibiting re-mating and preventing interspecies mating, crucial for understanding reproductive strategies and interspecies competition among mosquitoes.…
