POETRY, PASTRIES & PIES PODCAST: Poet Anna Ehrenman Discusses Neuroscience and Poetry | From Behind the Pen

I have been investigating the use of neurocognitive methods on the grounds of whether they are structurally and functionally valid in the world of poetry. So today, I have the pleasure of sharing my interview with Anna Ehrenman, a current senior at the University of Virginia and author of the book, “The Almond of my Mind” (The Poetry of Neuroscience and Love).

Anna’s book is a compilation of neuroscience and the poetry of love. Her book isn’t a textbook, but it is the integration of understanding neuroscience and poetry. Anna is a STEM student, and it is evident how passionate she is about biomedical research and scientific literacy.

As I read her debut book of poetry, there were so many of her poems that resonated with me about how each region of the brain serves a different role in controlling thought, touch, motor skills, vision breathing, memory, and every process that regulates our body. Anna also explains how the amygdala (ah-MIG-dah-la) relates to the title of her book.

I invite you to listen in to this informative conversation about the research designed to help bridge the gap between art and science, and the way the brain responds to poetry and prose. You can contact Anna via her website, annaehrenman.substack.com, purchase her book on Blurb.comAmazon.com, or Barnes & Noble, and you can connect to her on Instagram,  Goodreads, and LinkedIn.
