We met with Gagan Wig, who is a post-doctoral fellow in Cognitive Neuroscience at Harvard. He took us took a secret speakeasy that was unfortunately closed at the hour we tried. Another meaningful space though for him is the human brain. He is studying small-world relationships. The idea that, like in the real world where people are connected by friends of friends or associated, the brain works similarly with its functional systems. I will let the neuroscientist explain it better in a piece he is submitting to the show.
