Swiping left on serendipity.

It鈥檚 14 February, in theory the most romantic day of the year, but not so fun if you鈥檙e single. Is there a rational way to find love in the era of big data?

We also hear from Dr Helen Fisher from the Kinsey Institute, who is also the scientific advisor for the dating site Match.com. She tells us about the science behind attraction.
