Can You Fix a Brain Like Mine
Description
Part journey of personal discovery, part journey into the future of neuroscience, this program meets the revolutionaries, mavericks and ground-breaking scientists operating at the far-flung frontiers of human knowledge into our brain’s functions and capacity and asks the question, if we can we make ourselves faster, smarter, better…is it right to do so? If our brain embodies who we are then who do we become by manipulating it? Presented by Lotje Sodderland, herself recovering from a devastating brain haemorrhage that has left her without the ability to read, this is part first-person road trip, part futuristic glimpse into the ethics of neuroscience.
