Love Actually: the Science of Romance
Three films. Three disciplines. One universal mystery.
From first glances to lasting bonds, from chemical sparks to timeless stories, love is one of the most powerful forces shaping our lives. These talks bring together psychology, chemistry, and culture to explore why we fall in love, why it feels so intense, and why we never tire of telling love stories.
Across three engaging talks inspired by iconic films, expert speakers reveal how attraction works in the brain and body, how our chemistry pulls us together (and sometimes tears us apart), and how centuries of storytelling reflect our deepest longings for connection.
Whether you’re a romantic, a sceptic, or somewhere in between, this series offers fresh insights into the science behind desire and the stories that keep our hearts afloat.
