Neuroscience
I am listening to a great series of public lectures on various aspects of science in the news, sponsored by Harvard Medical School this past fall. Each session is approximately 90 minutes, broken into three segments (conveniently, each segment is its own podcast) and is presented by a different graduate student at HMS. The sessions are complete for the year, but there are so many of them it’ll take a while to listen to them all.
Topics included “Diet and Cancer Prevention”, “Obesity & Diabetes”, and “Mental Health.” Both pdf and mp3 files are available on their web site, or you can subscribe via iTunes or other podcasting options.
