The Renaissance Doctor

by Elisabetta Burchi

We know more about the brain than at any time in human history, yet we remain uncertain about what it means to be human. The Renaissance Doctor explores how neuroscience, the humanities, and interdisciplinary inquiry can deepen our understanding of the human condition, and help steer scientific and technological progress toward human flourishing and a more human-centred future. Conceived as an antidote to the compulsion for information, this podcast seeks to reconnect knowledge with meaning. Hosted by Elisabetta Burchi, MD · MBA · Clinical Psychiatrist · Neuromodulation Researcher
