Is there any biological reason why the moon's phases could affect human moods and behaviour? Eric Chudler, Neuroscientist at the University of Washington, and health psychologist Claudia Hammond, look at the evidence to find out if the moon really does inspire lunacy. Dr Adam Rutherford and Dr Hannah Fry find out the answer. First broadcast on The Curious Cases of Rutherford & Fry, 8 December 2016.
