Episode 2: A Brain for Everything

Recent discoveries show why the brain has been called “the most complex object in the universe.” In the article “Wired for Extremes,” award-winning science writer Heather Bruce explains how the brain is equipped with backup systems to respond to any emergency. In her article “My Bionic Ear,” biologist Dr. Georgia Purdom shares her personal story how the brain converts electronic “noise” from cochlear implants. In “What Memories Are Made Of,” neuroscientist Dr. David DeWitt describes how our brains sort through billions of meaningless details that bombard our five senses each second.
