Dr Schlozman is an assistant professor of psychiatry at Harvard Medical School and a lecturer at the Harvard School of Education - he is also considered the world’s leading authority on the neurobiology of Zombies.

The above lecture was recorded for the Science on Screen lecture series at the Coolidge Corner Theater in Brookline, MA. The lecture was called “The Neurobiology, Physiology and Cultural Overtones of the Zombie Film Genre”

For the lecture, Dr Schlozman studied by watching lots of Zombie films, reading Zombie books, interviewing great Zombie film directors and amassing Zombie merchandise, all tax deductible. I’m very envious.

The science fiction blog io9 has written an entertaining comprehensive synopsis of the lecture, here.
