LOVE AMONG THE NEURONS: A Neuroscience Guide to Valentine's Day

Mathematician Blaise Pascal famously wrote, "The heart has reasons that reason cannot comprehend." Perhaps. But, on Valentine's Day Eve, and with the expert help of UCSF's Thomas Lewis, Wonderfest and Ask a Scientist will give comprehension a try.

How did the human race evolve from solitary predators into the intensely social creatures that we are now? Where in the brain can we find the roots of our multiple connections to each other, and how do those connections reverberate within and between us? Join Dr. Thomas Lewis, assistant clinical professor at UCSF and professor at USF's Fromm Institute, and coauthor of A General Theory of Love, as we explore the nature of togetherness and the multifaceted bonds that connect us.
