I’m Erman Misirlisoy—a scientist and writer with a PhD in cognitive neuroscience. I’ve worked as an academic, led science teams in tech, and consulted for clients including Google, UBS, and Unilever. You can find media coverage of my work in the New York Times, BBC News, LA Times, and many more.
In this newsletter, I synthesize the latest research on the brain and mind to inform health and happiness. I discuss new studies, talk to experts, and provide practical tips.
