Brain science meets live jazz: Big ideas in neuroscience, brought to life through song.
How can a small change in our underlying instructions transform the way we experience the world?
Neuroscientist Panagiota (Julie) Apostolou of Columbia University’s Zuckerman Institute explores how subtle genetic changes can alter neural wiring and perception in schizophrenia, revealing how shifts at the smallest level can reshape the mind.
Acclaimed pianist and vocalist Kelly Green brings these ideas to life through live jazz, exploring the musical concept of “variation on a theme.” Together, Kelly and Julie examine the connections between variation, perception, and creativity—and what they can reveal about the human experience.
