Encore | How Love Synchronises Our Brains ~ Ruth Feldman
Manage episode 377297287 series 3403620
How literally can we be in "synch" with someone?
Very literally, said my guest in episode 3. Originally titled “A Musical Biology of Love”, this was a fascinating episode with jazz musician and neuroscientist Ruth Feldman. We recorded the episode one year ago, almost to the day. I have thought a lot about it ever since. So here it is again, with remastered audio and a new introduction. Original show notes are below. Enjoy!

Can biology expand our appreciation of love? What is the relationship between jazz and neuroscience? What does it mean to be in "synch" with someone?
Ruth Feldman is a professor of neuroscience at Reichman University, Israel, with a joint appointment at the Yale Child Story Centre. A jazz musician before being a neuroscientist, Feldman combines musical ideas of synchrony into her research on the neurobiology of attachment, bonding, and love.
Ilari and Professor Feldman discuss topics such as:
- Why study the biology of love
- What happens in the brain when we love
- Brain-to-brain synchrony: How love (and friendship) can synchronize our brains with each other
- Oxytocin with loved ones, strangers, and enemies
- Post-partum depression
- Parental love in gay dads
- Females and males as primary caregivers
- The relationship between brain-to-brain synchrony and oxytocin
- Empathy within and beyond group boundaries with Israeli and Palestinian youth
- Attachment theory, attachment problems, and ways to overcome them
Technical terms mentioned
- Oxytocin
- Brain oscillations (i.e. brain waves)
- EEG (a method to study brain oscillations)
- Neuropeptide
- Kangaroo care (after premature birth)
Names mentioned
- Wallace Stevens (American poet)
- Emmanuel Levinas (French philosopher)
- John Bowlby (founder of the attachment theory)
