In order to get accurate and precise data on the human brain, we need to use a piece of technology like functional magnetic resonance imaging, or fMRI.
fMRIs are extremely common in modern neuroscience studies because the advanced tech can give us information about what kind of activity is happening in different parts of the brain in response to different tasks or just at rest. fMRIs work by showing us where blood is flowing in the brain, but they can’t tell you what someone is thinking.
The brain is a key component in our central nervous system (along with the spinal cord); it has to interpret and process information it receives from the outside world, and then coup with responses for it.
When we look at the brain from the side, we can see three big structures. The cerebrum, the cerebellum, and the spinal cord.
So today, we’re going to learn the regions of the brain, what happens in each one, and how to correctly interpret a headline that makes a claim about your brain.

Human Brain: Facts, Functions & Anatomy
www.livescience.com/29365-hum...
“The human brain is the command center for the human nervous system. It receives signals from the body's sensory organs and outputs information to the muscles. The human brain has the same basic structure as other mammal brains but is larger in relation to body size than any other brains.”
How Your Brain Works
science.howstuffworks.com/lif...
“Your brain, spinal cord and peripheral nerves make up a complex, integrated information-processing and control system known as your central nervous system. In tandem, they regulate all the conscious and unconscious facets of your life.”
Learning How Little We Know About the Brain
www.nytimes.com/2014/11/11/sc...
“So many large and small questions remain unanswered. How is information encoded and transferred from cell to cell or from network to network of cells? Science found a genetic code but there is no brain-wide neural code; no electrical or chemical alphabet exists that can be recombined to say ‘red’ or ‘fear’ or ‘wink’ or ‘run.’”

Brain: *nominates itself as the most complex anatomy*
Lol
Yeah, it has bragging rights cuz it's the only organ that has self-awareness.
Dark Energy spinal cord is pissed
That's HI.
Nice profile pic bro
When you your amaze how your brain works but then realize that your brain is amazed by itself on what it can do and how he works basically our brains did not know what stuff it already knows.
The ego did not know what the brain does for it
My head hurts by thinking about it.
@@shinobimcbuilds7337 😂
Human brain is dumb and intelligent at the same time idk if it makes any sense but this is what my brain told me to write so yeah
“he” what…
The fact that we all got a conscious but it’s no proof other than us just all agreeing we have it still fascinates me till this day.
It's fascinating how the human brain works, or how brains work in general. It's not as simple as people thought it was back then, we're figuring out new things about the brain that we thought were false before
Nice seeing you the millionth time.
right? that’s exactly why i want to be a neurologist
My thoughts exactly
A former teacher of mine had a great quote on that; "if our brain was so simple that we could understand it, it would be so simple that we couldn't understand it."
@@layanna8702 Fun fact: your brain are like mice, you see, mice have at least 5 samples of Vitamin B inside of there pottasium holes in theyre brain, and your brain has at least 500 pottasiums of vitumun D, witch equals at least 50, and if you were at certified scientust (such as myself) you would always take away the zeros in your science words, so yeah, just another fun fact for the people that didn't know!
Bold of you to assume my brain is 'organized' at all.
thoughts mine also exactly yep
Ur word aligning capabilities says otherwise
Hmgjhjj yuh m7 is a man
it is very if you could actually type this without help
just because your brain is organised doesnt mean you are?
what?....
1:10 bold of you to assume that I don't fear the teadmill
HAHAHAHAHA!
School is basically useless at this point. I’ll just keep getting educated with seeker and other very educational channels!
Like you 🙂😅
@@hassanjalalualdden9890 basically everyone is doing school online now
this isnt education
@@johnjonjhonjonathanjohnson3559 “This isn’t education” isn’t a real refutation.
Because school can barely teach us things we really wanna know at our own time. If I wanna learn about politics, I would look at the news channel
The human brain is awesome it functions 24/7 from the day we are born and only stops when we are taking an exam
This is very funny😂
“The brain is the most beautiful and complex thing in the world”
-the human brain
my brain is more organized than I am
@Ezra George i believe we are the memories processed by brain.
@@Vanilla_fart hahaha
Find a good psychiatrist bruh
@@Vanilla_fart I like it 👍🏻
U are the brain
props to u wish i was like that again
I love how this is so complex and very well explained.
😂I’m high and drunk and all I can think about is “a brain explaining what my brain 🧠 can do “
beautiful this is what I call art the brain is such a magnificent structure and this is the reason why I am pursuing a career as a neurologist or maybe even a neurosurgeon. wonder full video sir ❤️
“I praise you because in an awe-inspiring way I am wonderfully made. Your works are wonderful, I know this very well”
Seeker is doing a brilliant job with these in depth series
This is helping me so much do understand my MSc Final Project. UA-cam saving my live once again.
The best introduction ever (IMO).
I learn something new. Thanks for updating my knowledge of the brain
The more I try to understand our brains, the more complex and more mindblowing it gets. The more you know, makes you know less. Feel like I was better of not delving into this subject.
thank you for this amazing and very instructive video! a bit less music would even makes it perfect!
solid knowledge drop Patrick!
Very interesting video, thank you!
I am not into biology ( I am more into Physics )but this was very interesting. Can you do a video about how the brain stores information and how it recalls information because that must be very complex. We can store and combine almost everything from sound to smell, thoughts, pictures, ( movie and still) colors etc.
And some people can memorize almost everything, others almost nothing. Some are good in combining and analysing, others can remeber and reproduce a huge amount of data, but are bad at analysing and combining data. I knew someone with an absolute pitch memory. If I played an accoord on the piano he could tell me the separet notes. I asked him how that worked and he told me, it is just as seeing colors, you know it is red and you can also see that it is light red or dark red or if to colors are the same. You do not need a reference. I can tell if two tones are close or the same if I hear both ( like when tuning a guitar) he could tune a string without any reference) like most of us can tell that color is red without any comparing.
Broc is Hank Azaria's cousin, but they spell their names differently, Broca's Area. It's great to learn all about the brain and also have that reinforcement that the things that people discover aren't the final discovery, like Broca who discovered that part of the brain after the two men couldn't speak anymore from injuries to the sides of the head, and it still turned out it wasn't that easy.
I get broccas aphasia and told speak English its extremely humiliating. I've neurological issues.
there have been moments in my life where i feel i have read peoples' minds. hard to deny it after so many times with accuracy.
Hi seeker
Another interesting episode..
Patrick kelly's explantion is so good..
Thanks seeker..🙏👍😊
The human brain used to impress me, but it no longer does. I realized that it’s actually a pretty simple, limited, and error-prone computing system capable of performing only a small set of tasks, including modeling the position of the one and only body it has control over, navigating that body through 4D spacetime, memorizing words and sentences in several different languages, language processing, basic mathematical operations, and a few other relatively simple operations. It won’t be long before general A.I. software is able to perform a much wider range of operations with much greater efficiency and much less error-prone.
MY mother had an apoplexy and she couldn't speak for more than 4 years we took her into so many neurologists and physicians and doctors, they kept telling us there's 5% chance that she can go back to speak normally, and one day after we lost hope we woke up on her voice asking for a glass of water.
Wow... How is she doing now?
Excellent video!
I feel like I got my high school refresher on reading about human brain :-)
Thanks Patrick!
tbh when he says "it be like that sometimes" i almost barfed in my mouth
I reaaly liked your playlist.i have watched every video of you
Amazing how everything is processed within a fraction of a second! Its so cool that our brain doesn't know what it already knows!
Excellent one
“By the tasty and not so tasty parts” - Dr Hannibal Lecter
Dr Cannibal Lecter?
More neuroscience videos pleeeeeease!
I feel like going through a machine as uncommon as that, a test experiment can induce fear in the volunteer as well. I hope you guys considered that.
The brain is such an interesting part of the body I had to watch this like three times because it was so intersting
nicely done
great info
I will like all videos from this series
Fear is totally contagious, its called stupidity mixed with hysteria.
*TIME* is what we needed to find out that *SPACE* is all we got, in April 2020, now, the fact of the *MATTER* is, we can view the world in *REAL~TIME* 3D Stupid Mode!!!
7:18 Patrick tryin' ta muscle in on zefrank's territory.
very well designed video
Good job..keep going bri
I was expecting more detail like the thalamus, hypothalamus and so on
As a biopsych major this was actually well done
@@hawkeye3938 well yea everything that was said was correct but a lot more could have been said xP
Thank u so much for videos❣️❣️❣️...
Can u guys make videos on "why electro motive force(emf) even produce?? We know how ..but wanna know why???
Love the background music
this video was genuinely interesting but i kept getting distracted by the song starting at 4:54 which sounds like a legally distinct and royalty-free version of dead or alive's "you spin me round (like a record)"
I think u should also include association area, gustatory,somesthetic area,and also the besal nuclei..🥺
..Also that's a good demonstration..
Fear is totally contagious. Having a freaked out person in the room with a woman giving birth can actually cause physical damage that wouldn't have otherwise happened because she becomes tense from picking up on their fear.
Really makes you think
Goodjob
bold explanation about brain
4:30 thank you for dispelling the myth
we need that gif... where you say - it be like that sometimes
The dexterity of this organ is such that even in the midst of the extraordinary insult that is Parkinson's upon it, some 80% of dopamine (DA) neurons need die before signs become prominent in the patient. Technically, this is largely attributable to volume transmission (DA floating over from healthy neighbouring cell(s)), supersensitivity (enhancement of the physiological response to DA), and overarching increases to affinity (the DA concentration at which half of a given DA receptor type are occupied); all in a stripe of neurons very deep and central within the brain.
very nice.
Thank you.
You should also do a video about the Vagus Nerve
3:53 just leaving this here to take notes haha
5:02
5:52
In this video:
Frontal lobe
-- Prefrontal cortex
-- Primary motor cortex
-- Broca's Area
Parietal lobe
-- Somatosensory cortex
Temporal lobe
-- Auditory cortex
-- Wernicke's Area
Occipital lobe
-- Primary visual cortex
i was expecting neural networks stuff when u talk about visual signalling pathways though XD, your viewers are ready for some hardcore biology (pathways)
I have a degree in Neuroscience and I still don't understand the brain.
Cool!
4:20 The left-brain would say that, it denies incomplete picture, and uses language to dominate codependent division.
Stalemate.
Omg amazing how does he know everything about our brain
But don't let this distract you that your just a brain inside a meaty skeleton mech and needs food and water to fuel it.
Lost me at “it be like that sometimes”
sir you should teach physio in my clg
love the presentation
The language is the important part bc communication is the key to happiness
Thanks for folding material worth 10 lectures into 9:54 minutes of interesting video.
I think it's great that Seeker uses Synthwave tracks as their background music. Be even better if you provided links to each track in the description!
So much info in 10 mins
Plot twist : Brains are aliens, who have settled inside these human bodies to survive
Iain McGilchrist , author of the book The Master and His Emissary, might (does) disagree on your framing of left v right brain abilities. You might need to clarify and put out another vid exploring the differences in thinking.
Y’all are epic
Wish to talk about the quantum neuroscience theory which from Matthew Fisher.
he smiles so much its scary
I’m starting to get into the human brain 🧠 it’s so interesting.
How exactly is Homer Simpson's brain organized?
potatomato :p what brain
it has a beer hemisphere and doughnuts hemisphere
A Monkey with cymbals
His amygdala is in his asshole lmaooo😂
awww cute potato 🥔
Everything apart, the speaker is really handsome 😂 and when he mentioned timothee (my favourite actor), i was really mesmerized ❤️
Please make a video about ozone layer hole opening and closing every year on poles
Plot twist : Brains knows about everything but only actually makes you remember the information only when it wants to
Okay, I'm a physics student but I much prefer your brain videos to the rest. 😅
Thank you.
Physics and neuroscience both are science buddy so ur using science to get rid of science lol
@@gamingmaster0252 Yeahh of course! Physics underpins all of the sciences anyway, but obviously there are fields that specialise in such topics.
@@georgemathieson6097 yes brother 😊
Hey seeker, plss make cideo about connectome...😍😍
This brings people being called smoorh brain into perspective 😂
Me while watching this video: this is big brain time
So! You want to study brain activity?
Yeah nah, not rly...
I just want to point out that you say the reason we have more lines in our brain is to fit more brain into our heads and I don’t think that is true because the brain is touching all of itself and what I mean is that all the gyrus and sulcus layers are so packed together that they might not need to be folded. The layers already touch they just have no connection between them.
And for my second point each fold creates a little divot in the cerebral cortex where shock absorbing fluids(that do other things too) are stored in so I think that the brain would be better in terms of “brain power” if it had evolved without the wrinkles and instead took the route of evolution of better connectedness inside a smooth brain we would all have more brainpower. Surface area means nothing in a 3 dimensional space. So I guess in conclusion if we had smooth cerebral cortex we would be capable of achieving a higher brain power because we would lose the divots but only at the sacrifice of being less protected
Why doesn't anyone mention how beautiful this video is? Just look at its design. (I liked it a lot)
8:01 spot on
Good homeland reference
So the brain have a particular source code, does it vary in its signal interpretation from different angles or point of view of signal processing. Because it's better to know what to interpret, which better interpretation sent so as to arrive to a specific solution. Another question does the periphery and the brain signals bounce to objects for afferent interpretation wherein although brain waves and peripheral waves vary creating wave scopes like a butterfly comparable to that of oscillations?
Si pensáramos con el corazón, creeríamos que el corazón es el órgano más complejo.
My Brain🧠 is Learning About it's Own Function,....🤣 LOL...!!!!!!
so you know how "Exactly" eh? this will be fun. I am listening.
Everyone's Brain wants to know more about itself. What a Narcissistic organ 😂
Our brain is the only brain able to study brain using brain.
