Prof Nutt - Brain chemicals, mental health, and drugs

A Cuppa Happy

17-01-2021 • 50 mins

The renowned scientist Professor David Nutt sits down with Joss to talk about the chemicals in our brain, and the drugs that affect them. He’s not just talking about the legal ones either! A true maverick, he was fired as chief advisor on drugs for the Labour after arguing that drugs legislation is not based on science, and has been on a crusade to get society to have a rethink ever since. For more from the Prof, tune in to his podcast The Drug Science Podcast or pickup his new autobiography Nutt Uncut which is available in all good bookshops. *** A massive thank you to our wonderful sponsors!
