About This Event

Brain Food: The Science of Connection Hosted by Leigh Campbell-Wan, founder of Lab&Soul, expect interesting science, thoughtful conversation and a welcoming table. Come on your own or with a friend - no scientific knowledge needed, just bring your curiosity. Our final gathering of 2026 explores The Science of Connection. How much space does connection get in your calendar? Connection can help us cope with stress, feel safe and support our wellbeing. But it looks different for everyone. Some people recharge in company; others need plenty of time alone. We can be surrounded by people and still feel disconnected. Together, we’ll explore what fills your social battery, the difference between being alone and feeling lonely, and how digital interaction compares with spending time together in person. Leave with a better understanding of what meaningful connection looks like for you - and ideas for making room for it.
