Science shows us that love expansive—a biological, cultural, and social phenomena that shapes our lives, and is fundamental for our survival.
The Science of Love is a one hour special examining emerging research on why we love, how love develops, and how it sustains us across many forms of connection. Hosted by award-winning actress, author, and activist Geena Davis, and produced by The Science of Happiness podcast at UC Berkeley’s Greater Good Science Center, the program features leading researchers in psychology, neuroscience, and anthropology and explores a broad spectrum of love, including romantic partnership, family bonds, friendship, our love for our pets and the natural world, and our sense of collective belonging.
From the families we’re born into, to the relationships we choose, The Science of Love uncovers what happens inside us when love shows up.
Funding for this special was provided by the John Templeton Foundation, as part of the Greater Good Science Center's Spreading Love Through the Media initiative.
