Professor Sophie Scott is a neuroscientist and Wellcome Trust Senior Fellow at University College London (UCL). Her research investigates the cognitive neuroscience of voices, speech and laughter.
We talk about the medical benefits of laughter, tree-like connectors in the brain, and how best to rewire our most complex organ for an immortal world.
