Your sense of smell is incredible. Inside your nose, odour molecules interact with your senses at the quantum level – you can detect the presence of extra neutrons in a molecule. Lots of the ways we experience the world are on the teeniest, tiniest scale. It's just one of the places that quantum mechanics interacts with biology. Now you nose 👃✨

BrainCraft was created by Vanessa Hill (@nessyhill) and is brought to you by PBS Digital Studios. Talking psychology, neuroscience & why we act the way we do.

Hosted and Produced by Vanessa Hill 🐨

BrainCraft Hi! I'm Vanessa Hill, a behavioural scientist and science communicator. On BrainCraft I explore psychology, neuroscience and self-development. My mission is to bridge the gap between scientific research and your daily well-being. Outside of my regular videos, you can find BrainCraft as a series on PBS, watch my YouTube Originals show Sleeping With Friends, or check out my PBS docu-series Attention Wars. There's so much to watch, I'm honestly not sure why you're still reading this. But since you are, please consider subscribing and supporting my Patreon so I can continue to make educational videos 🧠✨
