#36: Smellosophy with Ann-Sophie Barwich

In this episode, Frauke sits down with cognitive scientist and empirical philosopher, Ann-Sophie Barwich, PhD to talk about her book Smellosophy: What the Nose tells the Mind, which highlights the importance of thinking about the sense of smell as a model for neuroscience and the senses. Ann-Sophie shares her perspective on why smelling is so underappreciated, what we get wrong about this elusive sense, and why she believes our sense of smell is truly amazing (and like no other!). She reveals many fascinating facts about smelling from a biological and psychological perspective, and encourages us to use this beautiful sense as a connection with ourselves, our environment, and others. You'll also learn about the exciting new "Stink Tank" laboratory she's building at Indiana University and the experimental testing she's planning to conduct to help further our understanding of smell. Strap yourself in for an enlightening conversation and a few laughs along the way!
