    The Sleeping Brain
    Mar 23 2026

    In this episode, we explore the role of sleep for memory. We welcome back Svenja Brodt, who will talk about what different sleep phases contribute, the role of dreams, and whether pulling an all-nighter before an exam is a recipe for disaster. We also dig into what scientists are still trying to figure out about how sleep shapes what we remember – and what we forget. Co-host: Simon Faßnacht.

    The Science of Remembering
    Feb 16 2026

    In this episode, we dive into one of the brain’s most fascinating abilities: remembering. We’re joined by Svenja Brodt; she will explain how the brain stores memories and how MRI helps reveal the interplay between the hippocampus and neocortex in shaping short-term and long-term memory. We discuss what this means for studying effectively for an exam and how the aging brain can still form new memories. Co-host: Simon Faßnacht.
