Science in Perspective
🌌 Science in Perspective
Science in Perspective examines scientific work by changing the level of description. Instead of isolating parts, it looks at how structure, information, and constraints give rise to behavior across systems.
Each episode starts from real research and asks what patterns remain when the details are stripped away. The focus is not on results alone, but on the organizing principles that recur across physics, biology, cognition, and social systems.

Complexity Answers Complexity: Merging Brains and Machines
In this episode I discuss recent research in merging the human brain with machines. This opens the door to reestablishing motor control in paralyzed individuals, and also raises the question as to how far this might go. Augmented memory? Increased processing power? Time will tell.
