TEDxSanJoseCA - Adam Gazzaley, MD, PhD - Brain: Memory and Multitasking

A mix of science and art - brain scientist and nature photographer.
Dr. Adam Gazzaley is a rare mix of science and art. He now directs a cognitive neuroscience laboratory at the UCSF Mission Bay campus, which focuses on understanding the neural mechanisms of memory and attention in humans. In addition to his laboratory, he has recently established and now directs the Neuroscience Imaging Center (NIC) at UCSF, a core facility designed to use the tools of human neurophysiology, notably functional MRI, to study the healthy and impaired brain. It is likely that Adam's extensive scientific background now provides the colors for his nature photography palate. He feels that "both are an exploration of nature, be it the discovery of the organization, complexity or beauty of the brain, a neuron, a waterfall or a sunset; it's all about the art of perception." The focus of Adam's philosophy emerges and is portrayed in his book, Wanderings.

I love 1:00 stating the brain is the most sophisticated organ we know. It's a very humble stance. For we don't know what we don't know.

[@jocelynrodriguez1891]

A change I am willing to make is to focus on one task at a time and try to successfully finish any task thrown my way.

[@lorielbvtravels]

The changes I want to try and make are to not divide my attention on multiple things and how to focus on one. Learn to stay focused, driven, and passionate.

[@paigea.3078]

The changes that I would make to my personal lifestyle is to multitask but to also make sure I do each job perfectly and not half way doing things.

[@paigea.3078]

Changes to behavior I am willing to make is turning off electronics when something important needs to be completed such as class work.

bartenders that must make age-related assumptions should find the 'same-face' game a little easier
