Show notes

In today’s moment, renowned neuroscientist and author, Anna Lembke, explores the fascinating science of dopamine and its impact on our behaviour. Discover why dopamine is fundamental to survival, how it drives pleasure and motivation, and why we are more vulnerable to addiction than we think. Neuroscientist Anna Lembke is the author of bestselling book, Dopamine Nation. As a professor of psychiatry and the Medical Director of the Stanford Addiction Medicine program, she has become a leading expert on the brain’s reward system. Her work explores how the balance of pleasure and pain in the brain can lead to addiction and what happens when we overstimulate our reward pathways in the modern world.
