The Science and Magic of Accent Acquisition
Miranda Guettlein
Speaking in different accents seems like magic, but there are predictable rules and practicable skills that anyone can learn. Combining research in linguistics, performance, and psychology, this talk demystifies the process of learning any accent by breaking them down into their component parts and relying on real human speakers of the accents for data.
Psychobiotics & The Microbiomes That Make Us
Ryan Burns
Did you know your gut microbiome weighs roughly as much as your human brain? In the last decade, research into the Gut-Brain Axis has fundamentally changed how we understand mental and physical health. Psychobiotics leverage these trillions of microbes to communicate directly with our nervous and immune systems. Join us to explore how bacteria dictate daily wellness and discuss a real-world case study of gut microbiome modulation to revitalize mental and autoimmune health.
