What if the biggest moral mistake of our time is failing to recognize the minds around us? Philosopher Jeff Sebo, author of The Moral Circle, joins Sentience to explore one of the most consequential questions of our time: who deserves moral consideration? We discuss why the scientific case for anim…

What if we’ve been dramatically underestimating what it’s like to be another animal? In this episode of Sentience, animal cognition researcher Mickey Pardo, PhD takes us inside the minds of other animals—from woodpeckers that track relationships between other birds to elephants that appear to use n…
In this episode of Sentience, Bruno Olshausen, PhD, professor at UC Berkeley, tells the story of how he went from wanting to build brain-like robots to uncovering one of neuroscience's most surprising results. Early in his career, he and a collaborator showed that if you train a simple computer mod…
In this episode of Sentience, Yi-Li Wu, PhD, Associate Professor of History and Women's and Gender Studies at the University of Michigan, explores the overlooked history of anesthesia and pain management. We discuss medieval Chinese surgical practices, herbal anesthetics, and the transmission of me…
In this episode of Sentience, Osh Agabi, CEO of Koniku Inc., explores what happens when technology is built not just with silicon, but with living biology. We discuss his journey from growing up in Lagos to leading efforts in “wetware computing,” where engineered biological systems are designed to …
In this episode of Sentience, Joel Frohlich, PhD explores how scientists study consciousness through brain signals. We discuss why familiar brain waves can sometimes mislead us, how ideas from entropy and information theory offer deeper insight into conscious states, and what neurodevelopmental con…
In this episode of Sentience, Alysson Muotri, PhD, professor at UC San Diego, discusses how brain organoids—lab-grown neural tissues derived from stem cells—are reshaping neuroscience. He explains how organoids can model early brain development, uncover the roots of neurodevelopmental disorders lik…
In this episode of Sentience, we talk with Thomas Hartung, PhD, about how organoids and AI are reshaping biomedical science. Hartung explains how AI models can predict the toxicity of chemicals more accurately than animal tests and how organoids—tiny, lab-grown versions of human organs—can stand in…
In this episode of Sentience, we speak with Shaolei Ren, PhD, about the hidden environmental footprint of artificial intelligence. From the enormous water and energy demands of data centers to the trade-offs between carbon emissions and cooling needs, Ren explains how his research uncovers these ov…
In this episode, I speak with evolutionary neuroscientist Barbara Finlay, PhD, whose pioneering research has reshaped our understanding of brain evolution. Barbara shares her scientific journey, from her early inspiration in vision science to her groundbreaking discoveries about how brains scale an…
