More than love: the hidden side of oxytocin - with Dan Quintana

Oxytocin is widely known for its role in love, bonding, and childbirth. But this so-called "love hormone" has a far more complex story. In this episode, we dive into oxytocin’s hidden side — its role in the stress response, how we handle challenges, and the ways it shapes our social interactions.

Guest host Professor Henrik Børsting Jacobsen is joined by Professor Dan Quintana, who leads a research lab focused on understanding how biological systems — particularly neuroendocrine systems like oxytocin and the autonomic nervous system — link psychological and social factors to health.
