The Brain with David Eagleman is six one-hour episodes that tell the story of the inner workings of the brain and take viewers on a visually spectacular journey into why they feel and think the things they do.

Dr. Eagleman's exciting multi-disciplinary approach has earned him respect — and fans — across the globe. He will take viewers on a fascinating journey through our inner cosmos, exploring the brain's neural landscape while asking profound questions like "What is reality?" and "Who is in control?" He will also look at the darker side of humanity in order to understand why the brain drives us towards certain actions and behaviors.
