Why We See What We See

Turns out artists and magicians can teach scientists more than a thing or two about perception and cognition. We chat with Susana Martínez-Conde, an award-winning neuroscientist and science writer who co-wrote the bestsellers Champions of Illusion and Sleights of Mind. Martínez-Conde has more tricks up her sleeve, including a new research project at her lab at SUNY Downstate Medical Center meant to help radiologists detect anomalies in X-rays and other medical images. Special thanks to Connor Button for composing our theme music, and to Warren Lawrence for making the Radio Kingston control room hum.

Hablamos con Susana Martínez-Conde, galardonada neurocientífica y escritora de los bestsellers Campeones de Ilusiones y Los Engaños de la Mente.
