This week we decided to step aside from the usual digital health related conversations and dwell upon some of the bigger questions in life : What is consciousness? How is it that we share 99% of our DNA with Chimpanzees yet the human ability to communicate and cooperate is so unique?

Our guest this week is Dr. Alex Gillespie - Assistant Professor in the department of Psychological and Behavioural Science at the London School of Economics. He has been studying human communication from a social psychological perspective throughout his academic career and has written several books on the topic.
