##### Gut feelings: The secrets of the human gut microbiome

Aina Martinez (Graduate Student, UCLA)
The human gut microbiome is a fascinating community of hundreds of species that live in our guts. In the last few decades, scientists have come to understand that the bacteria in our guts play essential roles for the health of their hosts (us!) and impact our well being from the moment we are born. In this talk, you will discover where our microbiomes come from, what scientists have learned about them in the last ten years, and how investigators today study the little bugs in your gut.

##### A tale of learning and decisions

Kathia Ramirez (Postdoctoral Researcher, UCLA)
Have you ever noticed how certain images instantly make you crave specific types of food? Or how the memory of a bad meal can make you pass on dinner with friends? In this talk, we’ll dive into how a key signal in the brain helps you learn, adapt and make decisions every day.

##### eyond Man's Best Friend: Exploring Our Bond with Dogs, and How They Play the Role of Protectors, Healers, and Companions

Joseph Zoller (Lecturer, UCLA)
From ancient partnership to modern companionship, dogs have shaped human life in remarkable ways, but how did we become so attached to them? This talk explores the story of our bond with dogs—how it began, how dogs help and comfort us today, what science is revealing about how they think and feel, and why they hold such a unique place in our hearts

##### How Invisible Social Forces Shape Our Intimate Lives

Haiyi Zheng (Graduate Student, UCLA)
We often think of love and desire as personal and private matters. Yet they are deeply shaped by—and in turn shape—social, cultural, and political forces. This talk draws attention to how intimate relationships such as marriage, family, and partnership are governed through broader structures of power, within which desires, obligations, and possibilities are unevenly distributed.

The Social Life of AI: How Close Are We to Machines That Understand Each Other?
Linfan Gu (Graduate Student, UCLA)
Most of us have interacted with AI by now, but are we approaching an era where machines don't just talk to us, but work together in social groups? As a neuroscientist, I study the neural circuits that drive our social decisions, and am intrigued by AI models that appear to mimic human behavior. By analyzing how the brain and AI tackle the same social challenges, I’m searching for an answer to two questions: Will AI ever truly socialize like us? And what is it that makes the human experience uniquely social?
