Broadcast — Mini-Science - From the chemistry of chicken soup to the chemistry of the brain and behaviour

This series explores the controversial and vibrant nature of chemicals and the history of their use and development. Learn about:  chemicals in everyday life; nuclear power as a future energy option; brain chemistry and neurochemistry; biofuels and sustainable energy; chemicals, disease and resistance.

With its underlying chemistry and physiology, the brain is the organ of behaviour. It is fascinating to explore some highlights from neurochemistry and see how these shape our theoretical and practical understanding of behavioural science.
