- In this video, Dr. Kushner breaks down the brain's middleman - the thalamus. In addition to projecting sensory information onto the cortex, the thalamus helps the brain decide what to pay attention to and what it can ignore.

10:18 How Does the Thalamus Relay Gustatory (Taste) Information to the Brain?

Hello Doctor please create a video about basal ganglia direct pathway indirect pathway
also explain GPI and GPE structure of basal ganglia
Best learning lecture I ever found in TH-cam!! Thank you!!
Thank you for watching! So happy you enjoy my videos 😊🧠
You are a great teacher thank you!
Thank you so much :)
gerat explanation of the relay station. thanks!!
Appreciate it
Your videos have helped me so much. I'm taking psychology 201a and we are learning all of this remotely, so it's mostly reading. I love your videos, thank you so much! They make me feel like if I were in class. I really appreciate it.
Also thanks for not going super fast like all the other videos.
I love your way of delivering info. I am not even a med student.
My goal is to always break down information for everyone to understand. Happy learning!
@@PsychExplained Thank You... Appreciated.
An Engineer here, just curious about learning about the brain ❤
Welcome! :)
Thank you so much for this video. Just subscribed.
Welcome!
I enjoy these brain videos, but it always cracks me up when I hear people talk about how little we know about a scientific subject, such as the brain, but then ascribe different reasons for thing to evolution. Granted, this video used the term evolutionary theory, so it is acknowledged that evolution is just one theory, but many videos and scientists use evolution as reasons for things like it is concrete science.
Good videos.
It would be great if there is a unified lecture about limbic systems that we can see all their relations to each other. In addition to limbic systems units, it can be really insightful to learn how specific function works like remembering in a more complete sense.
Limbic system video coming later this week :)
You are a fantastic teacher 🙏❤ love your lectures. Nobody else can explain complicated things as good as you do, thank you ❤️❤️❤️
Very kind!! Glad it helped 🤓
Excellent, very lively, and illustrative explanation! I have learned in this video what could have taken me ages through other sources. REALLY THANK YOU!!
Thank you very much for the time you put into making these beautiful and helpful videos!
You are a great teacher!
Thank you! 😃
Can you do one on the pineal
Gland? And thank you for sharing all your knowledge!
I am planning on covering the endocrine system so I will definitely touch on the pineal gland :)
I am taking a basic class on the brain but our professor dosent really go into depth on the functions like you do so finding and watching this video has been very enjoyable for me.
Happy to help 🙏🏻
Thanks. I am just enraptured.
Excellent Explanation of Thalamus Thanks a lot Sir
Your videos are SO helpful. I’m self studying AP psychology and your videos are all clear, easy to follow, and visually engaging. I hope you could continue making videos like this!!
I'm so glad! You are on your way to a 5!
Very nice. Thank you
You are so great.
You are a wonderful teacher dude, thanks a ton for your videos'
I appreciate that!
thanks so much
i learned so much thankss so muchhh that was smoothhh🥺💗
No problem!!
I had a thalamic stroke recently & your lectures are tremendously helpful to me, thank you! 🙏❤
I wish you a speedy recovery ❤️🩹
I also had a thalamic stroke almost a year ago now, and I'm still learning! It's such a small area with so much going on, and my case has stumped a lot of neurologists. Are you having this same issue?
Your videos are great! Thank you
Glad you like them!
Outstanding. Please make a video on Hypothalamus. Thank you for your efforts
So good!!!! Thank you!!!!!
Glad you like it!
Very useful
Great 👍
thank you
You're welcome!
Outstanding
Glad you enjoyed watching!
Thanks 💐
You’re welcome 😊
🙏
thanks for your video! I was really hoping to find another video, focusing on attention and consciousness with respect to the thalamus. Any chance you’re working on such a video?
Hi! Unfortunately not. There are some really good videos on TH-cam that take a deep dive into the thalamus. Mine is more of an overview.
I appreciate you 😌
I appreciate you for joining my channel :)
Hi Dr. Kushner
One of my cousin is diagnosed by "Infarct involving the left medial thalamus" what may be the reason causing this impairment
Good 👍
Thank you! Cheers!
Please make videos on human memory in details. Your videos helping me in many ways. Thanks in advance :)
Hi Bhumika, Thank you for the kind words. I cover memory formation in my video, Hippocampus. Is there a different topic within memory you would like me to cover?
@@PsychExplained thanks for replying..yes in this video you have covered explicit memory only, please do include implicit memory (procedural and priming). Also disorders and mathematical modeling of memory.:)
Thalamus in the center of the brain!
Would be like BT burying telephone junction boxes in the middle of the road under all the cables and pipes
6:03 „science or psychology“ haha
Can psychiatric drugs damage the thalamus?
Hmm I’m not sure about this connection.
🙏
