This award and the four lectures on “What makes us social” given on the occasion, provided inspiration and funding for the production of a graphic novel named “Two heads, Where Two Neuroscientists Explore How Our Brains Work with Other Brains”.

While visiting Paris, Uta and Chris took the time for a tea break at the ENS, to discuss with us this graphic novel written with their author son Alex Frith and illustrated by the artist and graphic novelist Daniel Locke.
