Summer in P1 6/7: Edvard Moser – Göteborgs-Posten

The Norwegian Edvard Moser sommarprat is about the road to the Nobel Prize, but without any exhilarating nerdiness.

There is nothing more exciting than the true passion. Is someone just enough nerdy in a field, it can generate the unbeatable radio – which is why a one-hour program about the concrete cultural and historical significance could be the week’s nail-biter. Therefore, also a niche product that Grow with P1 still get the listener figures.

But for that to happen, requires concrete buff, rädiseexperten or Home Guard specialist generously share what it is that attracts so.

Edvard Moser has been awarded the Nobel Prize for his discovery of the brain’s GPS system. It testifies quite phenomenal knowledge in the field of neuroscience. That one of the people he shared the prize with the wife May-Britt Moser could furthermore open to personal reflections on the conduct of research.

For this, we unfortunately nada, Zipp, no. We are given a recap of what the couple’s discovery may mean for the future, without any trace of contagious enthusiasm in the sometimes impenetrable Norwegian.

Even when there’s smash mode for a personal appeal – as when he goes to the Kilimanjaro to marry – offers summer talk a description of what drives him obviously brilliant man, whether in career or love.

Instead, he adds, almost in passing, that the peculiar wedding venue attracted a lifelong interest in him for active volcanoes. Why? No clue. It is not said.
