What can a brain do? And how far? To find out, the neurologist Laurent Vercueil does not hesitate to turn to science fiction. What do science fiction writers and alien movies tell us about the ultimate limits of the human brain?
A breath of fresh air for the heart, body and mind: this is the best we can wish you, dear listener friends! For now it is in our brain (one of the most complex objects in the Universe) that we will blow new wind, thanks to our guest, the researcher and neurologist Laurent Vercueil. He has no equal in tickling our neurons and does not hesitate, in his new work, to put his discipline, neurology, to the test of science fiction. What do we learn from science fiction authors who have racked their brains a lot about our gray matter? What could a brain pushed to its extreme limits be capable of? What can a brain do?
