Author: Ginger Campbell, MD January 6, 2024 Duration: 0:00

At the end of last month's episode I announced that it was the last regular episode of Brain Science. It has been 17 years since episode 1 was released on December 15, 2023 and I am extremely grateful to everyone who has listened and supported the show over all these years. I am also grateful that others have taken up the challenge of sharing neuroscience via podcasting.

The main reason I have chosen to bring the show to an end is that I want to have the time and energy to immerse myself into my new life in New Zealand. I moved here from the US in August 2023.

The main purpose of this post is to emphasize that Brain Science will still be available to new listeners so I hope you will continue to share it with others. All episodes released after 2016 will remaining FREE along with the annual review episodes going back to 2007.

MyLibsyn Premium will continue to provide unlimited access to the entire catalogue and episode transcripts. The income from Premium subscribers will allow me to continue to pay for web hosting and the other expenses of keeping the show available.

If you aren't already subscribed, please sign up for the free Brain Science Newsletter so I can send you future updates.

Thank you so much for your support! I would love to hear from you at brainsciencepodcast@gmail.com.


How does a three-pound organ of wet tissue-the human brain-create the entire subjective experience of being you? Brain Science with Ginger Campbell, MD: Neuroscience for Everyone tackles that profound mystery and many others, translating complex research into compelling conversations. Hosted by Dr. Ginger Campbell, an experienced physician and 2022 Podcast Hall of Fame inductee, this podcast digs into the latest books and ideas in neuroscience with leading researchers and authors. The discussions move beyond dry academic summaries to explore the real-world implications of brain science-how it shapes our health, fitness, mental life, and understanding of consciousness itself. What you'll hear are clear, thoughtful dialogues that make cutting-edge discoveries accessible, whether you have a PhD or simply a deep curiosity about why we think, feel, and behave the way we do. Each episode is an investigation into the mechanisms behind perception, memory, emotion, and decision-making, revealing the biological underpinnings of our shared humanity. This is a long-running podcast dedicated to the idea that everyone can engage with these fundamental questions, guided by a host whose medical background and genuine enthusiasm provide a trustworthy and engaging pathway into the material. Listen for a deeper appreciation of the most fascinating subject there is: the human mind, explored through the rigorous yet welcoming lens of neuroscience.
