I clicked just out of curiosity and remained glued as it was so engagingly presented. I didn't realise I was interested in this topic, but I am now! The top-down pain regulation idea was something I'd never come across and found fascinating (and with hindsight, of obvious value from an evolutionary perspective).
Sorry for the slip up! Damage to the front of the hypothalamus caused insomnia, so Von Economo called it the 'Sleep Centre'. Damage at the back caused sleepiness, so that contained the 'Wake Centre'. Hope you enjoyed the talk otherwise!
I noticed when she said that but I assumed she just made a mistake. That's easy to do when you're lecturing. Were you really confused about it or did you just want to nitpick?
@@katiekat4457 I think I saw some nervous tics recently after the slip, she definitely figured it out but wanted to maintain a proper conversational pace and not jump back to something and confuse the viewer, plus it was something that people won't consider paramount, it was a very easy mistake to make too
im sure like me, many people who suffer chronic pain would be your talk life changing to go through pain really appreciate it, incredibly intelligent and kind talk
I love the fact that the sound is good. That is a great step forward. The next thing to do is to use the input of the camera for the microphone. That way the visual delay is matched with the compression / storage and playback of the video.
Douwe, As technically correct your advice, it seems to resemble the description of the functioning of our thought process. Thanks for the giggle, with empathy Pete.
That video was 38 minutes long but felt like 10 minutes I was so gripped.... hope to see more of this subject soon,, extremely well presented,, great 👍 thank you
The philosopher Patricia Churchland also refers to the genetic roll in the moral and other behaviours of prairie and montaine voles. Neurotransmitters are not the source of the information they transmit and receive. We all exist in the spectrum of our culture’s emotional depression unless you exist within the spectrums of depressive realism or, autism. Your thought process is dominated by the selfish emotions of your ego. The last thing it wants you to think of is how and why the ration and meaning of our emotions function within our thought process. The key to free your thought process from, not the influence but, the dominance of our ego’s selfish emotions, is to think about the ration and meaning of empathy. You will be thinking from and with the source of selflessness, mindfulness, biologic objectivity, compassion and love etc etc. With empathy, Pete. I enjoyed the subject and your presentation of it very much,thanks.
I'm wondering if that's why I lack so much motivation, I'm on a high dose of Antipsychotic medication which is basically a dopamine blocker, I've been through all kinds of therapy yet it's never helped one bit... 🤦♂️💥
@@voraciousfred unfortunately they actually work quite well, at least where my mental health is concerned, without them I hear voices really badly and very aggressive, but with the medication they're tolerable to the point that I can ignore them for the most part, so yeah, they I definitely do need them sadly 🙃
Unfortunately, I think you are correct with your statement. The speaker did touch on the need to make drugs that target more specifically the receptors causing mental health problems. Until then, we are forced to deal with the side effects. As I’m sure are aware different antipsychotic have different profiles from person to person. Hang in there, my friend. Hopefully, not too much longer.
@@higreentj Hmmm... I'm not quite sure that would quite do it, mental health issues affect the brain for the most part, that's why the majority of mental illnesses are diagnosed using brain scanning techniques and the last I heard CRISPR isn't capable of restructuring the human brain, if it were a possible solution I'd be more than willing to volunteer myself to the research but unfortunately CRISPR is gene editing, not brain pathway editing 🙃
Those who have fewer vasopressin receptors are less monogamous, but wasn’t it that there were actually multiple copies of a gene responsible for vasopressin receptors which made species more prone to be polygamous, that is, those with 0 copies of that gene are less likely to cheat and are more monogamous whereas those with 1 or more copies reported more marriage problems and polygamous tendencies?
21:14 Maybe different temperaments are needed for the proper functioning of society, and we happen to have discovered one way that a range of possibilities is manifest in reality. In a society, it's necessary for some people to be hyper-alert to threats. But it would not do to have the vast majority operating in that state. Some people like more salt. Their sweet spot is different. Not every human difference is a clinical condition.
I would really like to see what you would have to say about my major severe chronic impingement in my C5 and how that would affect my brain chemistry and depending on how long it's been like that but I have an MRI coming up and we're going to look at the old ones I'm sure we'll figure it out

Can't believe it all of them works the same and can't believe it i don't know how to overcome maybe it's the habit we adopted habits can change but it requires alots n alots of practice
This one in particular is just a misinterpretation starting with the idea of "overloaded". It is not about overloading someone, it's the harm caused to someone by stilling bits out of their life..
A bit of witt, sense of humour or even sarcasm would help to keep the masses entertain and educated. Great video but not ludic! Last book l read was about the guts..loved it! And, Giulia Enders ended up "millionnaire"
I strongly recommend checking out Carol Dweck Growth Mindset for kindness, I like the BrainPickings article, the book is great, also Mark Manson for harsh truthes you need to accept with a little kindness, and alternatively, Mark Tyrrell / Uncommon Knowledge / Uncommon Practitioners for free therapy if you can work with videos / articles
I can predict the energy of lottery for anywhere .I’ve worked with a Harvest astrophysicist exploring y supernatural abilities . Alll due to a brain trauma.
Yes, but homogeneity is not the reality nor the answer. "Nobody's perfect" is not just a cliche, it's a necessity for the species. God, to humanity, "It is what it is."
I know alots of ppl are getting well with this by quarantine themselves at home and treatment at home with a doctor's advice on tablet's and everything
I'm sorry your mom is sick, I feel for you both, but how about having a bit of faith in the actual people who can help her medically rather than some imaginary magical sky daddy who apparently lets children die in horrible ways every single day then supposedly spends time making pretty pictures in the clouds for some crazy person to interpret in their own way to show you "he exists"? I really don't mean to sound nasty, I truly don't, but praying isn't going to help her, however going to a doctor who knows what they're doing will, it's at times like this that we need to look at reality, not fantasy, to help our loved ones. Hope she feels better soon 🙃
Very interesting and clear lecture. Also really nice to see a WFH presentation that has proper sound recording, lighting, background and visuals.

8:18 - confusing statements. need clarity. In both cases damage is at the back of hypothalamus ?
Yes

Oh cool! I get to find out what all those drugs I took have done to my synapses!!
The subtle simplicity and a modicum doze of medical jargons not to mention the vivacious presenter...nicely done and a great presentation!!

Great talk!!
Thanks for sharing :-)
Excellent, please continue with a second episode. 👍👍
Wonderfully clear presentation. Very well done. Thank you
I will definitely read this book.
It's like understanding more of yourself and knowing what's going deep inside.

@@jamesdozier3722 Thank you 😊 You cheered me up for the day 😊
With mental disorders they can be managed but there is a genetic cause so gene editing tools like CRISPR would be a cure.

Hi! have dr Ginny released the book?
This is one of the best videos I have ever watched on UA-cam. Thank You RI and Ginny Smith!
Thanks so much- so glad you enjoyed it!
The impulsive behavioral disorder aspects of dopamine is new to me. Pretty interesting 👌
So which group had damage at the back of their hypothalamus? She said both had back damage but also said both were different :\
Great talk, thank you.

WHo's Lisa if you are Ginny [ quite possibly miming at the start ] ?

This kept my attention at one in the morning after a long day, and with several units of alcohol 😏
Alcohol and science are a great combination.

Some people like more salt. Their sweet spot is different. Not every human difference is a clinical condition.
Was "can be altered" rather than "can change" a careless or a careful choice of words?

Watched it twice! Thank you very interesting
*"There's a **_sweet_** spot when it comes to seasoning your food [with **_salt]"_* 😂 I see what you (almost) did there!
Interesting. Liked the presentation. Expactig more.
I haven't got up yet. It's 4am.
I start every day with a glass of warm water, followed by a cup of coffee. Cheers Gray
do we decide how we feel?
Useful information. Thanks
Love potion number 9 is on its way.
I was singing that last week.
I love modern science and technology
So the two parts of the hypothalamus are the back and the back?!
Sorry for the slip up! Damage to the front of the hypothalamus caused insomnia, so Von Economo called it the 'Sleep Centre'. Damage at the back caused sleepiness, so that contained the 'Wake Centre'. Hope you enjoyed the talk otherwise!
My brain is a load, which overloads all the time 😅
Can't believe it all of them works the same and can't believe it i don't know how to overcome maybe it's the habit we adopted habits can change but it requires alots n alots of practice
Very good analysis of the brain chemistry and our behavior . Congrats.

How soon will your next
video on botany ?
A bell flower .. .
Obviously your highly educated in this topic..
Is that an oxytocin necklace you have ? If so that could be incredibly romantic 😍😁😂
Yep! And it was a present from my husband :-). I was also wearing my serotonin earrings, I believe, though you can't really see them!
Hmmm, I predict a presentation of other people's work 🤔
am i the only one who needs the info of her shirt? good.
So glad you like it! Its from Zazzle- I designed it myself using molecules drawn for me by the very talented Elfy Chiang :-)
wonderfully designed, perfect for us fashionable nerdies!

Overloaded is too nice a term..
30 seconds and already disliking. This is how you start your second grade elementary class presentation, not a presentation to an informed audience.
