In this high-impact solo episode, Darin strips away the noise, hacks, and hype to deliver a clear, no-BS roadmap for transforming your body, brain, energy, and direction in life. This is a straight-talk breakdown of the 5 foundational habits that matter most — the habits backed by science, ancient wisdom, and Darin's decades-long experience living this work every day. Expect practical steps, micro-experiments, timing rules, and the mindset needed to reclaim sovereignty in a world full of distraction. If you're ready to build a stronger, clearer, more powerful version of yourself… this is the episode.     What You'll Learn 00:00 – Welcome to SuperLife How this podcast helps you build sovereignty through real habits, real truth, and real practices. 03:07 – Why this episode is different Darin lays out the mission: habits, hacks, hard truths — without dogma or fluff. 03:44 – The 5 foundational moves that change your biology A preview of the metabolic, physical, mental, and behavioral levers that create huge shifts.     1. METABOLIC EDGE — Eat Like You're Building a Future 04:03 – Terrain theory + why your food timing matters How altering the internal environment of your cells changes everything. 05:02 – The two levers that unlock metabolic health Time-restricted eating + plant-forward whole foods. 05:23 – Compressing your eating window Why 8–10 hours is ideal, how it improves glucose, insulin, weight, and inflammation. 06:18 – Practical weekly ramp-up Week 1: 12 hours. Week 2: 8–10 hours. Simple, sustainable, achievable. 07:10 – Darin's personal eating window 10 a.m. to 6 p.m. — and why eating earlier aligns with digestive fire.     2. MOVEMENT THAT MATTERS — Strength Is Survival 11:04 – Why strength training is non-negotiable Muscle protects metabolism, bone density, insulin sensitivity, and longevity. 11:51 – What the evidence says Huge cohort studies show strength training reduces all-cause mortality. 12:23 – The perfect weekly formula 3x/week compound lifts + daily movement + micro-bursts every hour. 13:06 – Real-life practicality Darin's routine of walking, sprinting dogs, mountain biking, and breaking up the day with movement.     3. SLEEP — The Ultimate Biological Reset 16:26 – The truth everyone ignores You cannot out-supplement or out-biohack poor sleep. 16:40 – The real impact of chronic sleep loss Cognition, memory, hormones, emotional regulation — all decline. 17:37 – The universal rule: consistent timing Same bedtime ± 30 minutes, every night. 17:52 – 60-minute wind-down protocol Screens off, light down, nervous system softening. 18:32 – Using sauna as a down-regulation tool Infrared benefits + why Darin does it twice a day in winter.     4. MINDSET & CONSCIOUSNESS — Your Attention Is Your Power 20:00 – Why optimization fails without attention training You can master food, workouts, and sleep — but scattered attention destroys progress. 20:48 – Darin's morning protocol Water → elixir → infrared pad → meditation → visualization → journaling. Every day. Everywhere. 21:01 – Meta-analysis proof Meditation reduces anxiety, depression, stress — and rewires your brain. 21:23 – The perfect 10-minute breathwork formula 5–5–5–5 or 4–4–4–4 cycles for nervous system reset. 21:56 – Journaling as medicine Stream-of-consciousness to activate clarity and emotional release.     5. WEALTH — Treat Your Time Like Capital 22:36 – Redefining wealth It's not money — it's your magnetism, output, relationships, and purpose. 23:16 – The compounding effect of tiny decisions Time batching, micro-actions, and protecting your attention from the social media attention economy. 24:02 – Mini productivity framework 90 seconds → 3 important calls. Every Friday → 1 paragraph on what scaled this week. 25:14 – Darin's post-meditation rule No scrolling — replace with proactive actions: reading, outreach, Patreon replies.     FINAL TAKEAWAYS 26:02 – The master checklist: • Time-restricted eating • Plant-focused meals • Resistance training • Daily meditation • Consistent sleep • Sauna recovery • Treating time like capital 26:11 – The real danger Chasing hacks before mastering fundamentals leads to burnout, confusion, and stress. 27:58 – Your power is in the basics These are simple, accessible, and life-changing. 28:04 – Closing message "Have your best Super Life Day ever."     Thank You to Our Sponsors Our Place: Toxic-free, durable cookware that supports healthy cooking.

Matthew Alper is a passionate researcher and author best known for his provocative work The 'God' Part of the Brain, in which he explores the idea that spirituality and belief in a higher power may be rooted not in external divinity, but in the very wiring of the human brain. Drawing on philosophy, psychology, anthropology, and evolutionary biology, Alper argues that our longing for transcendence, our tendency toward religious and mystical experiences, and even our existential fear of mortality are biologically and neurologically encoded responses rather than purely cultural constructs. His work invites readers to reconsider traditional spiritual narratives through a scientific lens — challenging assumptions about divinity and offering a worldview in which God-concepts emerge through human cognition and evolution. Whether embraced or debated, Alper's perspective remains a bold attempt to reconcile science, spirituality, and the human experience.Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/the-x-zone-radio-tv-show--1078348/support.Please note that all XZBN radio and/or television shows are Copyright © REL-MAR McConnell Meda Company, Niagara, Ontario, Canada – www.rel-mar.com.

He is a graduate of the IFM, applies functional medicine in clinical practice, and is a consultant lecturer who teaches leading-edge science in a concise format for progressive clinicians to prevent chronic diseases.  In our discussion, Mike and I unpack the benefits of creatine monohydrate, highlighting the importance of ensuring the products we use are free of impurities. We explain how creatine monohydrate gets created, answer many listener questions, and describe current research specific to creatine monohydrate, discussing ways to support bone health, navigate dosing, and how to troubleshoot.  This conversation with Mike Mutzel is truly invaluable, and I look forward to having him back on the podcast to dive a little deeper into the science.  IN THIS EPISODE, YOU WILL LEARN: How creatine supports energy production across muscles, the brain, and other organ systems Why vegetarians and vegans should take creatine What to consider when choosing high-quality creatine supplements Dosing strategies based on diet, exercise, sleep, and individual needs How taking creatine with electrolytes while exercising can improve absorption Benefits of supplementing with amino acids alongside creatine for illness, recovery, or when protein intake is low Adjusting your creatine dosage for sleep, travel, or exercise demands How creatine supports bone and muscle health  The value of creatine for the eyes and ears Connect with Cynthia Thurlow   Follow on X, Instagram & LinkedIn Check out Cynthia's website Submit your questions to support@cynthiathurlow.com Connect with Mike Mutzel On his website YouTube Instagram High Intensity Health Podcast Creatine Research: Creatine in Women's Health: Bridging the Gap From Menstruation Through Pregnancy to Menopause Effects of Creatine and Resistance Training on Bone Health in Postmenopausal Women Creatine Supplementation (3 g/d) and Bone Health in Older Women: A 2-Year, Randomized, Placebo-Controlled Trial Creatine Supplementation in Depression: A Review of Mechanisms, Efficacy, Clinical Outcomes, and Future Directions The Effects of 8-Week Creatine Hydrochloride and Creatine Ethyl Ester Supplementation on Cognition, Clinical Outcomes, and Brain Creatine Levels in Perimenopausal and Menopausal Women (CONCRET-MENOPA): A Randomized Controlled Trial

Mapping Complex Mind States: EEG Neural Substrates of Meditative Unified Compassionate AwarenessIn this episode, Dr. Jud Brewer and Dr. Poppy Schoenberg explore the neural mechanisms behind advanced meditative states, specifically those linked to non-duality, emptiness, and awakened awareness. Using EEG, this study mapped brain activity during different stages of Indo-Tibetan essence-of-mind meditation, revealing decreased self-referential processing and increased executive control in regions such as the anterior cingulate cortex and insula. The findings suggest that meditative states of deep compassion and awareness involve distinct neural patterns, challenging conventional models of consciousness. Tune in to discover how meditation transforms the brain and fosters selfless awareness.Full Reference:Schoenberg, P. L. A., Rufa, A., Churchill, J., Brown, D. P., & Brewer, J. A. (2018).

In this episode of K9's Talking Scents, Cameron Ford sits down with world-renowned trainer Michael Ellis for one of the most in-depth conversations ever recorded on reinforcement theory, over-arousal, odor commitment, reward schedules, and why many detection dog programs unintentionally create false alerts.Together they break down the problems behind “reward-rich” training systems, how reinforcement can become punishing, why omission matters, and how to build dogs who persist, stay committed to odor, and search with accuracy — even in operational environments where rewards rarely come.This episode covers:• Why dogs become toy-obsessed instead of odor-committed• How handlers accidentally create false alerts• Why “continuous reinforcement” destroys operational reliability• Rewarding search vs rewarding finds• The science of frustration, dopamine, and over-performance• The difference between learning behavior and maintaining behavior• Why real-world deployments MUST be represented during training• How to introduce blanks, variable schedules, and expectation violation• "Satan's Infinite Loop" and how trainers build bad habits into dogs• Why many dogs don't indicate because they want the search to continue• How to build persistent, reliable, stable detection dogsIf you're a detection dog handler, trainer, supervisor, or K9 program manager, this is a masterclass.CHAPTERS00:00 — Intro & catching up01:00 — Online education & training libraries02:00 — Are rewards harming performance?05:00 — Reinforcement vs intrinsic motivation07:00 — Over-arousal in detection dogs08:30 — Searching for toys vs searching for odor10:00 — False alerts & frustration12:00 — The “cheat code” problem14:30 — Reward-rich environments vs real deployments17:00 — Continuous vs variable reinforcement19:00 — Training that mirrors real-world operations21:30 — Expectation violation & handler discomfort23:00 — Why easy training creates weak dogs26:00 — Dogs that quit vs dogs that persist28:00 — Reducing rewards without breaking the dog30:30 — Reading search behavior correctly32:00 — Consistency in training fundamentals35:00 — Foundation errors that create future problems38:00 — When to introduce blanks41:00 — Reinforcing end-of-search behaviors44:00 — Fixing continuously rewarded dogs47:00 — Why dogs miss the first odor49:00 — Over-arousal & compensation behaviors52:00 — Indication obsession & unintended consequences54:00 — Odor recognition vs sit/down behavior57:00 — Natural indications & reading the dog59:00 — Satan's Infinite Loop explained________________________________________

Clean air is free, so we ignore it. Air quality expert Mike Feldstein reveals why the thing we breathe most is the health pillar we optimize least.Full show notes and resources can be found here: jordanharbinger.com/1246What We Discuss with Mike Feldstein:L.A. wildfires created unprecedented contamination that lingered for weeks. 15,000+ homes and cars (including thousands of lithium batteries) burned, releasing toxic chemicals that kept fluctuating in the air six weeks later, with rain spreading toxins into soil and water rather than washing them away.Mold industry fear-mongering has created unnecessary panic. Many inspectors and naturopaths fuel anxiety about air quality, leading to expensive home remediation that may not be needed, forming a self-reinforcing ecosystem of concern.CO2 and oxygen levels in your home directly impact focus, mood, and performance. Poor ventilation affects everything from kids' classroom behavior to your sleep quality, yet we optimize diets and workouts while ignoring what we breathe 20,000+ times daily.We ignore air quality because it's free and abundant. Unlike food or water that require purchase and have immediate taste feedback, air seems invisible and consequence-free, making it the most overlooked pillar of health despite its constant impact.Improving air quality requires minimal daily effort for maximum health impact. Unlike meditation, journaling, or gym routines, clean air doesn't demand willpower every day, making it one of the most accessible ways to boost cognition, sleep, and recovery.And much more...And if you're still game to support us, please leave a review here — even one sentence helps!

Claudio Paolucci"Nati cyborg"Cosa l'intelligenza artificiale generativa ci dice dell'essere umanoLuca Sossella Editorewww.lucasossellaeditore.itNati cyborg racconta la vera rivoluzione che l'intelligenza artificiale ha scatenato: non quella delle macchine, ma la nostra. Quando la macchina ha sconfitto il campione mondiale di Go è infatti successo qualcosa di profondamente diverso rispetto a quando la macchina aveva sconfitto il campione mondiale di scacchi: non abbiamo assistito alla gloria di un algoritmo, abbiamo visto rivelarsi, in controluce, il funzionamento più profondo dell'intelligenza umana.Partendo dalle nuove macchine dotate di linguaggio e passando per allucinazioni, intelligenza zero, soggettività, menzogne, stanze cinesi, menti estese, pappagalli stocastici, imbecillità e miti del significato, Nati cyborg mostra come, per evolvere, l'essere umano deleghi da sempre all'ambiente nuovi pezzi di se stesso: attraverso utensili, scritture e tecnologie, ogni volta ci trasformiamo, diventiamo ibridi, ci scopriamo cyborg.Oggi l'IA generativa non è un oggetto estraneo: è il nuovo specchio in cui riconosciamo chi siamo e chi stiamo diventando. Questo libro ci guida dentro quell'enigma, mostrandoci come l'intelligenza artificiale parli, prima di tutto, di noi stessi.Claudio Paolucci è professore ordinario di Semiotica e Filosofia del linguaggio all'Università di Bologna, dove è il coordinatore del dottorato di ricerca in Philosophy, Science, Cognition and Semiotics e il coordinatore scientifico del Centro Internazionale di Studi Umanistici “Umberto Eco”.Si occupa di semiotica generale, scienze cognitive, pragmatismo, teoria dell'interpretazione, intelligenza artificiale, filosofia e teoria dei linguaggi e semiotica del cinema e degli audiovisivi.

Understanding Visual Perception in Medical Diagnoses: A Deep Dive with Claudia Mello-ThomsIn this episode, Christine continues the conversation with Claudia Mello-Thoms, an expert in visual perception as it relates to medical diagnosis. The discussion delves into the use of templates by experts to quickly recognize abnormalities in medical images, despite their large size and complexity. Claudia explains how perception operates at a subconscious level, often leading to perceptual errors in medical practices like radiology and pathology. The conversation underscores the need to understand the human element in diagnostics to reduce errors and improve accuracy. The episode also explores the difference between rapid (fast) and deliberative (slow) processing in the assessment of medical images, emphasizing the importance of fresh perspectives when diagnostic clarity is lacking.00:00 Introduction to Visual Perception in Medical Diagnoses00:40 Understanding Templates in Medical Imaging01:34 Expert vs. Novice Diagnoses02:13 The Role of Clinical History in Pathology06:48 Fast vs. Slow Processing in Diagnoses09:42 Perception and Cognition in Medical Imaging10:31 Teaching and Learning in Medical Imaging21:48 Challenges and Future Directions in Radiology23:09 Conclusion and Final Thoughts

Can improving hearing help preserve memory and thinking as we age? Hearing loss isn't just an inconvenience of aging — it's now considered one of the top modifiable risk factors for dementia.Kimberly Mueller, Ph.D., is an associate professor in the Department of Communication Sciences and Disorders at the University of Wisconsin–Madison and a researcher with the Wisconsin Alzheimer's Disease Research Center. Her work focuses on how speech and language change in preclinical Alzheimer's, mild cognitive impairment and dementia. She also leads a clinical trial testing whether over-the-counter hearing aids can benefit people who have mild cognitive impairment and are found to have age-related hearing loss.In this conversation with Being Patient's Mark Niu, Mueller explains why hearing loss is both common and treatable — affecting about one in three adults over 65 — and why it is now considered one of the top modifiable risk factors for dementia. She breaks down how untreated hearing loss can strain the brain, contribute to social isolation and potentially accelerate cognitive decline, and she discusses how new hearing technologies and over-the-counter devices might expand access to care. Mueller also shares early insights from her hearing aid trial, communication strategies for families, and emerging research using everyday speech patterns as a sensitive tool to detect brain changes earlier than standard memory testing.—-If you loved listening to this Live Talk, visit our website to find more of our Alzheimer's coverage and subscribe to our newsletter: https://www.beingpatient.com/Follow Being Patient: Twitter: https://twitter.com/Being_Patient_Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/beingpatientvoices/Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/beingpatientalzheimersLinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/company/being-patientBeing Patient is an editorially independent journalism outlet for news and reporting about brain health, cognitive science, and neurodegenerative diseases.

I remember a lesson many years ago, when my teacher told me that her job was to teach me how to teach myself. So that I would one day no longer need a teacher.I couldn't have been more than 9 or 10 at the time, so the notion of me teaching myself was hard to fathom. It was difficult enough to just play in tune, never mind come up with my own bowings and fingerings, or making decisions about phrasing and all the musical details and nuances involved.Of course, she was right. One day I wouldn't have a teacher. Or even if I did, I would only have that teacher's assistance for one brief hour out of each week. Which meant that for 99.4% of the week, I was on my own. And if I wanted to make meaningful progress during the week, I'd have to learn how to teach myself.But how exactly do you teach someone to become a more independent learner?Get all the nerdy details right here:Why Being Too Quick to Offer Feedback Could Inhibit LearningReferencesSwinnen, S.

For Episode #188 of the PricePlow Podcast, we welcome Edwin Gonzalez, Functional Health Sales Manager at Health Tech Bio Actives (HTBA), alongside Michael Alfaro from Master Foods Lab. This episode marks a milestone collaboration: putting cutting-edge vitamin B12 science into functional foods that consumers can actually feel working. Edwin introduces MecobalActive, HTBA's ultra-pure, optimized methylcobalamin ingredient that's redefining what B12 supplementation can do. Traditionally, the industry positioned B12 as a deficiency vitamin for tired, anemic, or sluggish individuals. HTBA is changing that narrative completely. New clinical research demonstrates that just three days of MecobalActive supplementation significantly improved both physical power output and cognitive reaction time in healthy, well-trained athletes without B12 deficiency. This isn't about correcting what's broken, it's about optimizing what already works. The conversation explores HTBA's nearly 50-year European heritage, their unique position as the only EU manufacturer of all active B12 forms, and the proprietary green chemistry process that yields MecobalActive's exceptional purity and stability. Michael walks through the technical challenges of incorporating functional ingredients into Skinny Bite cakes (showcased at SupplySide Global 2025), revealing the complex interplay between formulation science, manufacturing constraints, and innovative problem-solving. From raspberry-colored B12 filling to protected cake layers to the partnership model driving functional food innovation, this episode delivers both scientific depth and practical application insights. https://blog.priceplow.com/podcast/vitamin-b12-htba-mecobalactive-188 Video: Redefining B12 with HTBA's Edwin Gonzalez and Master Foods Lab's Michael Alfaro https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KGqZm9Q5bkw Detailed Show Notes: MecobalActive B12 Takeover (0:00) – Welcome Back: A Dive Into Functional Foods (2:00) – Redefining B12: From Deficiency to Performance Enhancement (4:45) – Creating Functional Foods: The Clear Can Problem (7:15) – The Formulation Challenge: Making Actives Work in Real Food (11:00) – HTBA's European Heritage and Manufacturing Excellence (14:30) – Green Chemistry: Manufacturing B12 Without Toxic Reagents (16:45) – Light Sensitivity and Creative Product Applications (19:00) – Redefining B12 Like Creatine Was Redefined (22:00) – The Clinical Study: Triple-Blind Crossover in Healthy Athletes (26:45) – The Results: 4% Power, 6% Fatigue Resistance, 5% Cognition (31:00) – Structure/Function Claims and Market Applications (35:45) – Color-Driven Innovation and Future Applications (37:00) – The Chocolate Coating: Formulation Within Constraints (39:00) – Manufacturing Mastery: Solving the Protein Cake Challenge (41:00) – The Partnership Model: When Ingredient Suppliers Become Collaborators (42:00) – The Pressure Cooker: Building Brands in Real Time (44:00) – Closing and Where to Find Edwin, HTBA, and Michael Where to Find HTBA, MecobalActive, and Master Foods Lab HTBA and MecobalActive: MecobalActive: Healt...

L'idée que les gauchers seraient plus créatifs que les droitiers est ancienne, séduisante… mais scientifiquement controversée. Elle repose sur une intuition simpliste : si le cerveau gauche contrôle la main droite et le cerveau droit contrôle la main gauche — et que le cerveau droit serait “le siège de la créativité” — alors les gauchers, plus “droit cérébral”, devraient être plus imaginatifs. Mais la réalité, révélée par plusieurs études, est bien plus nuancée.Une étude publiée en 2009 par Shobe et al. dans la revue Brain and Cognition a testé cette hypothèse sur des étudiants américains. Les chercheurs ont mesuré leur “pensée divergente” — la capacité à produire des idées originales — et ont comparé droitiers, gauchers et “inconsistants” (ceux qui utilisent les deux mains selon la tâche). Résultat : les gauchers n'étaient pas systématiquement plus créatifs. En revanche, les personnes au faible degré de latéralisation (ni totalement droitières, ni totalement gauchères) obtenaient de meilleurs scores de créativité. Leur cerveau semblait mieux équilibré entre les deux hémisphères, favorisant des connexions inhabituelles entre des idées éloignées.Cette découverte a inspiré une hypothèse neurolinguistique : la communication interhémisphérique — facilitée par un corps calleux plus actif — pourrait être un atout pour la pensée créative. Autrement dit, ce n'est pas la main utilisée qui compte, mais la souplesse du cerveau à mobiliser ses deux côtés.Des recherches plus récentes, notamment une méta-analyse publiée en 2019, confirment ces nuances : il n'existe aucune corrélation stable entre la main dominante et les performances créatives. Les différences observées sont faibles, variables selon les tests, et largement influencées par d'autres facteurs : culture, environnement familial, éducation artistique, exposition à la nouveauté.Enfin, le cliché du “génie gaucher” vient aussi de l'histoire : Léonard de Vinci, Picasso, Mozart, ou Jimi Hendrix étaient gauchers, ce qui a renforcé l'idée d'un lien mystérieux entre gaucherie et talent. Mais statistiquement, la majorité des créateurs reconnus sont droitiers — simplement parce qu'ils sont plus nombreux.En somme, les gauchers ne sont pas plus créatifs par nature, mais leur cerveau légèrement différent peut favoriser une pensée moins conventionnelle chez certains individus. La créativité, elle, reste surtout une compétence entraînée, nourrie par la curiosité, l'ouverture et la diversité des expériences — bien plus que par la main que l'on utilise pour écrire.

In this episode, we dive deep into the often overlooked intersections between hormonal health and mood. We'll explore how the hormonal roller-coaster of perimenopause can trigger depression; how an underactive thyroid (hypothyroidism) can silently undermine your mental health, cognition and memory; and how winter's shorter days and low light can amplify the risk of seasonal affective disorder (SAD) — especially when thyroid issues are in the mix.You'll learn:Why women in their 40s-50s may face a 40 % higher risk of depression during perimenopause — and how those symptoms may overlap with thyroid dysfunction. How hypothyroidism mimics and worsens depression, anxiety, brain-fog and fatigue — and why it often goes undiagnosed. The link between thyroid-autoimmune inflammation, structural brain changes and cognitive/mood symptoms in Hashimoto's and hypothyroidism. Practical strategies to navigate these overlapping conditions: combining thyroid screening, lifestyle tweaks (sleep, nutrition, light exposure), therapy/CBT, and when medical hormone-or thyroid-treatment becomes essential.How to spot when “just feeling off” is more than stress: the red flags that signal mood symptoms need a hormonal check.Whether you're entering perimenopause, suspect a thyroid condition or are managing seasonal mood dips — this episode will help you connect the dots and equip you with evidence-based tools to reclaim your mood and hormonal balance.

With NLW currently on the road, he's joined in this conversation by Sean “Swyx” Wang — developer, writer, Latent Space host and newly joined member of Cognition. They explore how AI coding became 2025's defining story, why “vibe coding” is ending (sort of), what comes next for developers, and how “Agent Labs” are reshaping the balance between model makers and product builders. Swyx also previews the upcoming AI Engineer Code Summit in New York and shares why “code AGI” could deliver 80% of AGI's value long before full AGI arrives.Brought to you by:KPMG – Discover how AI is transforming possibility into reality.

As a practical matter, how much effort do you put into pinning down the causes behind daily occurrences? To developmental psychologist Frank Keil, who studies causal thinking, that answer is likely along the lines of 'not enough.' A lack of causal thinking is both endemic, and, to an extent, hurtful these days, he argues, suggesting that lacking even simplified causal models makes things like the black box of artificial intelligence a potential problem. In this Social Science Bites podcast, Keil, the Charles C. and Dorathea S. Dilley Professor of Psychology and Linguistics at Yale University, outlines for interviewer David Edmonds how causal thinking is a skill we seem to have at an early age, but which diminishes as we grow up. "[K]ids, by the time they approach elementary school, are asking up to 200 'why' and 'how' questions a day," he explains. "Within a year or two up to starting school, they're down to two or three, often none." Furthermore, Keil sees this diminishment continuing in society today – and this comes as a cost. "I think it's making kids today be pushed more towards surface understanding, being user interface understanders. I think it makes influences more influential. To just say 'This is cool' as opposed to 'This is how it works.' One of the negative consequences is that we can get fooled by misinformation more; one of the best ways to debunk an expert is to ask them to explain the mechanism." At Yale, Keil directs the Cognition and Development lab. He has written several books, from academe-oriented books like Developmental Psychology: The Growth of Mind and Behavior, to more general reader titles like Wonder: Childhood and the Lifelong Love of Science. His awards include the Boyd R. McCandless Award from the American Psychological Association (Developmental Psychology), the Distinguished Scientific Award for an Early Career Contribution to Psychology from the American Psychological Association, a Guggenheim Fellowship, a fellowship at the Center for Advanced Study in the Behavioral Sciences at Stanford University, a MERIT Award from the National Institutes of Health, and the Ann L. Brown Award for Excellence in Developmental Research.
