As a biology major, you got me through biology, physics, and organic chemistry. I recently changed my major to psychology and now I couldn’t be more excited that you can guide me through my new classes! Thank you for all you do in making science fun and accessible!
@@sinkeverbruggen1576 When you take a general psychology subject, you study a chapter on biopsychology in it, among chapters on other major branches of psychology and when you do your major in psychology, you study courses in biopsychology as a branch of psychology. On the bases of your psychology major, you can choose biopsychology as your field of interest for postgraduate study. So, nop... it's not something different, it's a subarea of psychology. Where you study biological bases of mind and behavior.
You’re using the tool to try to understand it. Reminds me of Rickle in Time episode: “How you think you gonna move time while you're standin in it you dumn ass three-dimensional monkey ass dummies?”
If you think your brain is you, your conscious that has the ability to make decisions over what you believe is it's own judgement. Personally I think your organs and your consciousness are entities of their own but communicate with each other. Kind of like the earth is a single being but the earth isnt a tree, or a race of humans, or a biome, or soil, or lava. These are all part of one
I uh actually started learning Math,phy and chemistry and ended up at biopsychology,astronomy ,anyways A BIG THANKS to DAVE as Your helping a lot students by teaching in amazing methods and process .
I just took focus 2 and my top result for a career match was Biopsychology! A bit of an identity crisis because although my major is Biology I was looking more into genetics...but I am equally drawn to study behavioral neuroscience in my spare time so it's a pretty legit assessment I'd say.
Would you consider doing a more general psychology course? Something along the lines of psych 101 (and beyond), and perhaps touching on social psychology? Thought I'd give asking a try since you've expanded from "the science stuff" to "all sorts of stuff"! Not to say that general psychology isn't scientific, it's just comparatively one of the softer sciences.
@@ProfessorDaveExplains oh snap! That's awesome. Quick thanks by the way, you're an excellent science communicator, and your courses have helped me a lot with learning in my free time. (Also your flat earth response videos are both educational AND hilarious)
One of the things I noticed about Prof James Tore is that he very often falls back on the statement Life does not come from non life. well if im not mistaken DNA is not alive, and Hydrogen Oxygen and all the other components that make up living things are NOT alive. but I love the thought that if life does not come from non life... then how did the risen living Jesus come from the dead and burried non life Jesus? life does nto come from non life.
Great! Looking forward to it. It sounds a little bit reductionist at this point. Trying to pin down conciousness to brain activity is fraught with peril, but bring it on.
Everyone everywhere for all of history has been making up theories on this, try searching it up and have some fun!!! I personally think philosophy has the most accessible answers. If you haven’t tried thinking through different frameworks it’ll just help life be easier in general. Be aware of the linguistic and unsung implications of what “consciousness” means to you. It can become a vestige that you identify with and defend, if you aren’t careful it can become really hard to learn about!!!!
Why the need to remove spirituality? Not very holistic when "figure out humans". What if "spirituality" is merely an extension of consciousness and cognition or visa versa? It is argued that consciousness does not derive from the brain. That the brain is an interface, a sender/receiver, a vital organizing and regulating organ of bodily mechanisms and storage for the plethora of experiences from which our conscious personalities draw. That it is not the source of our conscious existence, but an interface contained within our non-local, conscious-being. Are we not multidimensional? Or Are we really just a reduction of biochemicals? Reductionist theories have a tendency to, ironically in this case especially, take the humanity out of the equation. I agree with and understand the need to specialize and focus our studies and perhaps reduction-ism is part n' parcel of being human, AND I would like to see a more integrated approach in science. How about merging, and taking seriously, Quantum Physics and Psychology? Thoughts?
well you don't have to be a doctor. you can be a scientist and study the brain. work on consciousness, it's one of the most exciting areas of study in science.
@@drvir Yeah, be careful with that, most that seek the truth but end up Not able to handle it tend to surrounding themselves with theistic lies. Because apparently their emotional state is tied to the truth and only the "Real" truth will be "Comfortable" as everyone knows that real truths unlike false truths never hurt. Ergo, the earth is flat and God exists and anything else is false no matter how reliable as everything that makes one feel uncomfortable with their place in the world must be false and anyone saying otherwise is an paid shill and Satan/masonic worshipper. Lmao! Good day 😆
Professor Dave “the human brain is the thing that produces our consciousness.” With all due respect, where is the proof of this statement? Where and what is the science to back this up? Listen up guys; consciousness, or the explanation of, is the Achilles heel of modern neuroscience. Anybody who glibly says that the brain produces it (eh-hem, cough cough, prof Dave) is not speaking science nor adhering to the scientific method.
Oh, are you a neuroscientist? No? Have you studied the brain or know anything about it at all? No? Are you an emotionally fragile simpleton with a baselessly spiritual worldview that is so threatened by science that he writes the whole thing off without bothering to actually learn anything? Yeah, that's the one! Stick around and watch this whole series. #20 is about consciousness itself. To dismiss an entire field of science because it threatens a mystical belief you have is really, really pathetic. Stop adhering to a version of science you heard about in third grade and actually learn something.
The entirety of modern knowledge regarding the brain. If you aren't interested in learning for yourself, and are relying solely on me for this information, then as I said, you'll have to wait until #20 in this playlist which discusses this very topic.
Professor Dave Explains Even the highly respected and venerable Bill Nye admits that this is highly debated topic with valid points on both sides. He agrees with you but admits that he could be wrong. There’s a humility in his approach which I respect. th-cam.com/video/G1n9zC2T12M/w-d-xo.html The point of my input here is to try caution you to be less dogmatic, more scientific in the deeper sense of the word. Our understanding of the brain is minimal and our understanding of consciousness even less. Please keep this mind when discussing such mysterious topics. That said, thanks for chiming in. I know you are a big channel and it’s good of you to directly reply to your viewers comments ✌️😀
There is no lack of consensus amongst neuroscientists that consciousness is generated in the brain. Precisely how it works is not well understood, no one is disputing that. But it's in the brain. To say otherwise is a strictly religious statement.

psychology is something very different then biopsychology
Why is an understanding of biology important to psychology?
@@yemmymanzanares8806 Psychology is behavior, behavior is a product of the brain. the brain is an organ. an organ is biology.
Psychology is biology

My brain is excited to learn about itself, what an irony.
Lol I didn’t think about it that way 🤣🤣 that made it even more interesting now !! Thanks 😂

That's not ironic, it's logical.

As a behavioral neuroscience major, I’m excited
As a college lecturer this quarantine. I thank you so much for your videos. This will help my students a lot.
My man Dave one of the best accessible science channel on YT !! From a French fan studying sciences
I love the way that Dave gave the big view by connecting chemistry, biology and psychology.
So glad I found this channel right before I started studying for the MCAT.
Professor Dave is teaching me more than my school ever thought me!!!
I uh actually started learning Math,phy and chemistry and ended up at biopsychology,astronomy ,anyways
A BIG THANKS to DAVE as Your helping a lot students by teaching in amazing methods and process .
Watching this first before watch the psychology playlist. (studying biology of behavior) 5/5 understanding so far.
I just took focus 2 and my top result for a career match was Biopsychology! A bit of an identity crisis because although my major is Biology I was looking more into genetics...but I am equally drawn to study behavioral neuroscience in my spare time so it's a pretty legit assessment I'd say.
I’m more interested in philosophical phycology, but I gotta get into this for class.
Sounds like a great series to come!
Love from India ....Keep..making psychology videos
professor dave i love you
Yes! Looking forward to this course!
Tremendously well explained, well done.
Fave show
Sir you just got me hooked to this😊😊
Will you be doing advance organic chemistry as well??
yep i'm always putting out more ochem stuff! i just did one this week. i'll keep adding over time
Have been subscribed for a while now. Well articulated, as always 👍🏻
Prof Dave, you're awesome, you should just tell everyone " without ME its just AWESO"
Thank you sir

i have a biopsychology playlist
love the intro professor! you already boosted my interest
i love the introduction song
Awesome video. Thanks a million.
god u know EVERYTHING
you are so cool ! inspiring students all over the world
I support this 100% thank you for all of your hard work :)

@0@ sweet! im really hyped for this series
Life is limited by a number
Thanks !!!!
Life is nothing more than what you make of it
This channel is so awesome.
Thanks Professor Dave!
Math has a symbol for infinite
Is this class hard? I’m currently taking Intro to Anatomy and I am STRUGGLING. I’m a Soc major!
4:12 What's above psychology, and breaking down into it?
Sociology?
Great vid anyway.
Love to know your background, professor Dave?

Great vids tho!
He looks handsome without long hair. He probably has a girlfriend. Or wife. Now.
i was looking for this comment
Looks a lot like this 8
we actually don’t know if the brain produces consciousness, i’m not saying it’s an inter dimensional substance or anything but we still don’t know
We know that it produces consciousness. By manipulating the brain we manipulate consciousness.
What am I suppose to do with e Biopsychology Major? After the 4 years, aside from med school, what are my options?
well you don't have to be a doctor. you can be a scientist and study the brain. work on consciousness, it's one of the most exciting areas of study in science.
The video is finished?
Golly, with all this stuff the brain does, what good is a soul?
Theres nothing this man cant do
And as a science supporter do you believe in existence of immaterial soul which coexists with brain creating consciousness?
nope
what about karma, what create karma????
Don’t let this distract you from the fact that the earth is a trapezoid
I like your haircut.
please keep explaining my degree to me
❤
You got it backwards. Consciousness is fundamental.
No, it isn't. That's something con men say on the internet. Watch this please: th-cam.com/video/aQTWor_2nu4/w-d-xo.html
Science jesus you will save us all
I ain't here to argue, but are we sure about the relation between self awareness and the brain? I mean, are we 100% sure?
Have you a better idea?
Have you
We’re not 100% sure. Even so, it’s the best guess available to us. By far.
