CHANGE Your BRAIN by Doing THIS! w/ Neuroscientist Dr. Ben Rein

Todays guest is Ben Rein, PhD. Ben is a postdoctoral scholar at Stanford University, and a science communicator on social media. In his current research, Ben is exploring the neural basis of empathy and mechanisms by which empathic behaviors can be enhanced. In 2021, he received his PhD in neuroscience from SUNY Buffalo, earning the Dean's Award for Outstanding Dissertation Research. Ben's PhD thesis research focused on autism spectrum disorder and identified key systems in the brain that regulate social behavior. Ben also creates educational science videos for an audience of more than 850,000 followers on social media. In his videos, he summarizes recent research papers, teaches fundamental science principles, and debunks "viral" videos containing scientific misinformation. Ben has been recognized for his science communication with awards from Stanford University, the American Association for the Advancement of Science (AAAS) and the Mind Science Foundation. Today Ben reveals 3 things you must do to optimize your brain health as well as how NOT DOING these 3 things can negatively impact your brain. We chat about the importance of sleep, how to know if you are sleep deprived and what you can do to improve the quality of your sleep.
