<p>This month's episode of Brain Science is an interview with Nina Kraus, author of "<a href="https://amzn.to/2ZtUdeO" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Of Sound Mind: How Our Brain Constructs a Meaningful Sonic World</a>." Dr. Kraus has spent 30 years exploring how the brain processes sound. We explore why sound processing involves much more that just the auditory cortex as well how the sounds we experience change our brains, both for better and for worse.</p> <p><strong>Links and References:</strong></p> <ul> <li><a href="https://amzn.to/2ZtUdeO" target="_blank" rel= "noopener"><em>Of Sound Mind: How Our Brain Constructs a Meaningful Sonic World</em></a> by Nina Kraus</li> <li><a href= "https://communication.northwestern.edu/faculty/nina-kraus/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Nina Kraus, PhD</a>, Northwestern University <ul> <li><a href="https://www.brainvolts.northwestern.edu" target= "_blank" rel="noopener">BrainVolts</a> website</li> </ul> </li> <li>Please visit <a href= "http://brainsciencepodcast.com/">http://brainsciencepodcast.com</a> for additional references and episode transcripts.</li> </ul> <p> </p> <div style="text-align: center;"><strong>Please Visit Our Sponsors:</strong></div> <ul> <li><strong>TextExpander at </strong><a href= "https://textexpander.com/podcast?utm_source=brainscience&utm_medium=podcast&utm_campaign=textexpander-January-2022" target="_blank" rel= "noopener"><strong>textexpander.com/podcast</strong></a></li> </ul> <p><br /> <strong>Announcements:</strong></p> <ul> <li>Please visit <a href="https://brainsciencepodcast.com" target= "_blank" rel="noopener">brainsciencepodcast.com</a> and let me know what you think of the updated website.</li> <li>Get free gift "5 Things You Need to Know about YOUR Brain when you sign up for the <a href= "https://aw165c37.aweb.page/p/bf3db6a3-fd83-4cd1-9e6c-f7686d67f700">free <strong><em>Brain Science</em></strong> Newsletter</a> to get show notes automatically every month.
