Have you ever wondered whether arts and science can combined? Dwaynica Greaves, a PhD candidate at UCL Institute of Cognitive Neuroscience, joins us on this episode to show us how this is possible. Neuroaesthetics seeks to understand the complexities of human behaviour from another lens. Dwaynica’s doctoral thesis explores the effects of theatre training on actor’s sense of self. We discuss the implications of neuroaesthetics research in the development of prosocial behaviours. Dwaynica also shares her experiences of being in academia, the challenges of funding and the great benefit of having supportive supervisors. She has also contributed a chapter to the Black PhD Experience.
