In this episode, we invited a pair of neuroscientists: the student Roshni Lulla and her advisor Dr. Jonas Kaplan. They talked about the difficulties of neuroimaging studies, the brain regions for empathy and even consciousness, how Roshni balances her PhD work with her startup role, and Dr.Jonas’s interesting idea on how to choose best grad students.
Roshni is a second year PhD student in University of Southern California, her research focuses on emotional processing. She also hosts the Behind Your Behavior podcast with her cousin, where they interview professional neuroscientists and explore concepts from social interactions to decision-making.
Dr. Kaplan is an Associate Professor of Research in Psychology at USC's Brain and Creativity Institute, he is also the Co-Director of the Dana & David Dornsife Cognitive Neuroimaging Center, and the Associate Director for Mindfulness and Neuroimaging for the USC Center for Mindfulness Science.
