Neuroscience - New Theory of The Brain & Consciousness
What if consciousness is not created by neurons alone?
What if the fluid flowing through your brain is doing something far more profound than simply protecting brain tissue and clearing waste?
Two young medical researchers, Shalin Bhatt and Richa Kulkarni at Georgetown University, have proposed a provocative new framework that could challenge how we think about brain rhythms, consciousness, the glymphatic system and the relationship between neurons, blood vessels and cerebrospinal fluid (CSF).
Their GlymphoVasomotor Field (GVF) Theory, published in Medical Hypotheses in 2025, proposes that vascular dynamics, glymphatic fluid movement and electromagnetic interactions may provide a non-neuronal scaffolding for brain rhythms and consciousness.
And if future experiments validate the theory, the implications could be enormous.
THE MISSING PIECE MAY BE THE BRAIN'S FLUID DYNAMICS
Cerebrospinal fluid is not simply a protective cushion.
It moves through spaces surrounding the brain's blood vessels and is closely connected to the glymphatic system, which plays an important role in fluid movement and waste clearance.
The GVF hypothesis proposes a fascinating chain:
VASCULAR RHYTHMS → GLYMPHATIC FLOW → CSF MOVEMENT → IONIC CURRENTS → ELECTROMAGNETIC FIELDS → NEURAL COORDINATION
The theory suggests that moving, ion-containing CSF within perivascular spaces could generate structured electromagnetic fields capable of influencing neuronal activity and synchronization.

Exploring the Cosmos - Shami Chatterjee
Get ready to journey beyond the stars in this mind-expanding episode featuring Dr. Shami Chatterjee, Associate Professor of Astronomy at Cornell University, and a key researcher at the Carl Sagan Institute and the Cornell Center for Astrophysics and Planetary Science.
From the discovery of the first repeating Fast Radio Burst (FRB 121102) to groundbreaking work with NANOGrav on detecting gravitational waves, Dr. Chatterjee takes us inside the cutting edge of radio astronomy and time-domain astrophysics.
In this episode, we dive deep into:
· Classical Physics to Quantum Gravity
· Connecting Newton to Einstein
· The mysteries of Blackholes
· Exploding Neutron Stars and Magnetars
· Understanding Gravity and the fabric of space
· How neutron stars act as cosmic clocks to detect ripples in spacetime.
· The story behind the mysterious FRBs lighting up our universe — and what they tell us about distant galaxies.
· The incredible 15-year journey leading to evidence of low-frequency gravitational waves from merging supermassive black holes.
· The WOW Signal
This isn’t just a podcast — it’s a front-row seat to the symphony of the universe.

The Science of Paranormal Belief - Chris French
What really drives our belief in the paranormal? Why do conspiracy theories and pseudoscience persist, even in the age of information?
In this eye-opening episode of Indian Genes, we dive deep into the world of anomalistic psychology with Professor Chris French, Head of the Anomalistic Psychology Research Unit at Goldsmiths, University of London. A leading expert in the psychology of paranormal beliefs, Chris has spent decades exploring what makes people believe in ghosts, UFOs, psychic powers, and other unexplained phenomena.
From false memories to sleep paralysis, from magical thinking to cognitive biases, Professor French breaks down the psychological mechanisms behind some of our most mysterious experiences. We also discuss how these beliefs relate to wider societal trends—like the rise in conspiracy theories and the danger of pseudoscience in public discourse.
Whether you're a skeptic, believer, or somewhere in between—this episode challenges you to question what you think you know.
Topics Covered:
The psychology behind paranormal experiences
UFO & UAP latest Sightings
Why people believe in conspiracy theories
Sleep paralysis & shadow figures
False memories and how they form
The role of cognitive biases in magical thinking
The dangers of pseudoscience and poor scientific literacy
Book - The Science Of Weird Shit
