In this wide-ranging interview, we explore how neuroscientist, author, and meditation teacher Nicole Tetreault managed to step across what was once a great divide. Nicole started her adult life studying neuroscience, hoping to understand the mechanism for her mother’s Parkinson’s and hopefully be part of discovering a cure. At the same time, Nicole’s Catholic upbringing had instilled in her a deep sense of wonder and faith. The more Nicole learned about the brain, the more she felt compelled to combine the materialist world of science with what she felt deeply as a matter of faith.
