A shocking investigative report by the New York Magazine has shed light on the deeply troubling personal conduct of Andrew Huberman, a celebrated Stanford neuroscientist and host of the popular “Huberman Lab” podcast.
Despite positioning himself as an authority on optimizing human performance and well-being, multiple women have come forward alleging that Huberman engaged in deceitful, manipulative, and bizarre behavior in his romantic relationships.
At the center of the allegations is “Sarah,” a woman who believed she was in an exclusive long-term relationship with Andrew Huberman for years. However, she eventually discovered that the neuroscientist had secretly juggled up to five girlfriends simultaneously, lying to them about his commitment status.
Sarah described Huberman as intensely controlling, even questioning her past family planning decisions before they were involved.
Furthermore, Sarah said she once contracted HPV, a sexually transmitted infection, during her relationship with the neuroscientist despite her regular testing over the prior decade.
While her partner denied ever testing positive himself, the condition lacks approved screening for men, potentially allowing asymptomatic transmission.
The report portrays a pattern of erratic and unnerving behavior from Andrew Huberman towards both romantic partners and professional colleagues. Former associates recount him frequently disappearing without notice for extended periods, even once abandoning an anthropologist at his home unexpectedly for over a day even though they came on an invite.
As the women he was allegedly involved with gradually uncovered one another’s existence, they accused him of profound emotional manipulation, such as professing commitment to multiple women concurrently while they presumed monogamy.
One instance even depicts him providing nightly fertility injections to Sarah while privately exchanging affectionate texts with another girlfriend on a camping trip.
