Andrew David Huberman (born 1975) is an American podcaster and neuroscientist. He is an associate professor of neurobiology at Stanford University School of Medicine and a partner of the sports and nutrition company Momentous, with which he offers branded dietary supplements. He is best known for hosting the Huberman Lab podcast, which he started in 2021.
Education
He received a B.A. from the University of California, Santa Barbara, in 1998, an M.A. from the University of California, Berkeley, in 2000, and a PhD in neuroscience from the University of California, Davis, in 2004. He completed his postdoctoral training at Stanford, in 2010, working in the lab of Ben Barres.
Academic career
From 2011 to 2015, Huberman was an assistant professor of neurobiology and neuroscience at University of California, San Diego. In 2016, Huberman moved to Stanford University.
Wth David Spiegel, Huberman has carried out research on cortisol and anxiety-based depression.
Podcasting and supplements
In 2021, Huberman launched the Huberman Lab podcast. In episodes lasting several hours, Huberman talks about the state of research in a specific topic, both within and outside his specialty. By 2023, the podcast had become the 6th most popular podcast in the US on Spotify platforms, while his YouTube channel had 3.5 million subscribers and his Instagram account 4.2 million.
In April 2022 Huberman entered into a partnership with Utah-based sport and nutrition company, Momentous. With them he offers a line of “Huberman Lab” branded dietary supplements. He became Scientific Advisor for the supplements retailer Athletic Greens the same year.
Reception and criticism
In Time magazine, Huberman was described as having a large and enthusiastic fan base. However, he has been criticized by other scientists for prematurely applying the preliminary results of animal studies as having potential applications for humans.
Jonathan Jarry at the McGill Office for Science and Society has questioned Huberman's promotion of controversial supplements. According to Jarry, Huberman Lab has been sponsored by "companies offering questionable products from the perspective of science-based medicine".
