Dr Natalie Matosin talks Stress and the human brain on ABC Illawarra by Lindsay McDougall published on 2018-07-20T08:22:52Z How has your week been? How about the month? The year? Are you feeling stressed - I know the weekend is almost upon us, and yes I'm off for a week to de-stress - but what exactly is stress, I mean we feel it, we know how it feels, how it affects us indivisually, but how does it affect us physiologically? What does it do to the physical stuff that makes up our brain? AND if we know what it does to the brain, can we take steps to stop it affecting us so much? Can we innoculate ourselves against stress? Researchers from Neuroscience Research Australia have been studying this, and to tell us about it, molecular neurobiologist at IHMRI and UOW, Dr Natalie Matosin, who was last year named on the Forbes 30 under 30 list, and whose instagram handle is thestressscientist, so I guess Natalie knows a thing or two about it.
