Date: 7 August
Time: starts at 20:00 (Doors open at 19:45).
There are several forms of love, different states of being and relationships. Each person has different perspectives and opinions. Scientists have also tried to find out how people are attracted to each other and what effects love has on us.
Some of the science covered will include the neuroscience, genetics and chemistry behind love. How does oxytocin affect the brain? Is it more than chemicals which allow us to bond more to other human beings? How does the socio-emotional aspect affect oxytocin levels in the brain? Is there a dark aspect of love we are not aware of?
