I am pleasantly surprised by the quality of these lectures, both in terms of content and production. I was looking for a good starting point to strengthen my basics before beginning my masters in neuroscience, and this is it. Thank you so much Dr. Bing
This video really reminds me of the episode “Vital Electricity” in you’re dead to me. It gives an amazing overview of the history of electricity and its relationship with the human body
My research group just started a research line into neuromorphic computing based on spintronic devices, I don't doubt these series will be very helpful in that sense. Could you perhaps point towards some literature/reviews on the current state of mathematical models of the brain? Thank you so much professor :)
There are so, so many! Depends on whether you are interested in mathematical models at which scale of description. There are models of synapses, compartments of neurons, neural circuits, brain areas, field models of whole brains, many more abstract representations of mental processes.
@@bingsbrain Hi thank you for your response, I spoke with the projects PI and his first objective is to first model at the neuron/synapse level, then scale up from there. Any information is welcomed :)
Great video. Thanks a lot! As you said, it is a bit strange now to think that the existence of neurons was controversial, as it is pretty apparent now. But to put things in perspective, it might be interesting to remark that in the same years, not even the existence of **atoms** was universally accepted!
Just looking at the units in the formula for resting potential, why is the letter for the flow of ions I (which usually represents current) if everything on the right side simplifies to the units for V, voltage?
Why speak of "translation" and "language of neurons." Metaphors are trops, not refering mechanisms. When Van Gogh paints a sunflower, he's not translating anything. As a sentient creature, he may be "movtivated" (not caused) to arrange paint in a certain manner. Arrangements of paint can take many forms, but the molecular make-up of the paint itself, and the cnavas, and the painters are materially the same throughout.

Love your channel and it looks like we have some common interests/topics we cover!

Excellent class, thank you!
By the way, I didn't see the extra source about the history of the Neuro Doctrine. Could you perhaps post a comment sharing the link? Thanks!

Amazing lecture. Hey can you recommend some of the books to begin with. Thanks
Wow jast wow
