The Infinite Mind was a weekly one-hour radio series that aired on National Public Radio (NPR) between 1998 and 2008 in the United States. The show focused on aspects of mental health, neuroscience, and the biology of human behavior and was independently produced and distributed by Lichtenstein Creative Media. At its peak, it had nearly one million listeners weekly, and it received major journalism honors, including a UN Media Award. The program was dropped from NPR's satellite feed after news stories reported that Goodwin had a conflict of interest and was receiving financial compensation from pharmaceutical companies in exchange for consulting and physician education.
