Thank you for having these talks on a public forum for no cost. It means so much to so many of us who would not otherwise be exposed to such rich ideas and concepts.
Brian Greene is so great at facilitating these talks and helping to get the point across for laymen. These are fascinating topics and it's amazing to realize we are at the very beginning of our understanding of how this all works.
From one collection of neural circuits to another-thanks for sparking synapses and enhancing my brain's playlist on memory, speech, depression, and consciousness. Best cerebral recommendation on TH-cam!
Our brains are a quantum entangled neural network. The neuron is a complex standalone processor, a functional node in a neural network. Individually we only control a single neuron (node) which ties into our entire nervous system. We all exist inside of each other's neural network otherwise we couldn't share an experience. Atomic nuclei are binary switches with a twist. An atom consists of one or more of these simple binary switches fused together to produce the binary equivalent of a byte. The 0s and 1s in binary represent OFF or ON, respectively. In a transistor, a "0" represents no flow of electricity, and "1" represents electricity being allowed to flow. In this way, numbers are represented physically inside the computing device, permitting calculations. Atoms are built from quarks, two up quarks and one down quark produce a proton. Two down quarks and one up quark produce a neutron, they are interchangeable. A neutron is unstable outside of the nucleus of the atom and will decay into a proton. Protons are stable outside of the nucleus. Neutron "0" represents no flow of electricity. Proton "1" represents electricity being able to flow. The carbon atom for example represents 6 protons, 6 neutrons, 6 electrons. That makes up the nucleus of the carbon atom, so it represents a 12 bit byte. Each proton and neutron represent a single binary digit. A single carbon atom representing 666, is a 12 bit byte. If you account for particle spin you realize that these 12 bit bytes of carbon can be arranged in various nuclei alignments, to represent any combination possible within that 12 bit byte. This is just a single carbon atom. 12 binary digits, or 3 nibbles (a 'tribble'), have 4096 (10000 octal, 1000 hexadecimal) distinct combinations. Hence, a microprocessor with 12-bit memory addresses can directly access 4096 words (4 Kw) of word-addressable memory. The average human cell contains roughly 100 trillion atoms and each atomic nucleus contains 1 or more simple switches. Each neuron of our brain is a sophisticated standalone processor connected to 85-90 billion other stand alone processors. Producing a very powerful processing architecture. If you can physically experience and perceive it.. consciously, you are connected to it neurologically. Our brain is a neural network of quantum entangled nodes (neurons). We only control our own individual node and the nervous system it represents. If the neurological network didn't exist, we wouldn't consciously be able to share an experience. There are only 7.9 billion other humans on earth, our neurological network consists of 85 to 90 billion neurons. For you to read what I have typed on this page right here. I must exist inside of your neurology as a node on your network, otherwise you couldn't make a neurological connection to experience what I have typed. You also have to exist as a node on my neurological network in order for me to broadcast this message to you on this binary representation of our consciously entangled manifestation. When you meet a node on the network, inside of the projected universe, your neurons connect internally through branched connections and this allows both neurons to exchange information subconsciously. If you get a good or bad vibe from someone, trust that the subconscious didn't like what it saw upon forging a neurological connection. Mine and your neurons exist inside of both of our brains but require us to interact inside the projected universe before these neurons will forge a branch connection to one another. We are all connected subconsciously, neurologically. When we meet in this projected universe, the neuron that represents me and the neuron that represents you in both of our brains will create branch connections to each other where it can project our individual but shared experience to us. We are all a projection of self. Self is not unique to the individual, the individual is unique to self. SELF is the operating system driving our individual consciousness. We are all just a duality of self.
Scientific facts mixed with pseudoscientific concepts. You reference up and down quarks, but not strange, charm, top or bottom. You reference protons and neutrons as 0s and 1s, but don't account for electrons or photons or other particles. Also, when you speak about getting someone energy, , that is a result of social evolutionary pattern matching that allows us to predict someone's demeanor based on subtle actions, body language, tonality, and a multitude of other information we subconsciously absorb. I understand your words because I contain the experiential knowledge of language, because my eyes are taking in light from reflected photons and delivering that information to my brain and turning it into meaningful information, not because of the esoteric bs you just said.

I truly appreciate the work done by Brian Greene to broaden his own view of the world and the willingness of these experts to put their opinions on the line.
I recently found this channel, kind of by accident, and I have to say that the videos I've watched in the topics that interest me have been FANTASTIC. Amazing work coordinated and skillfully organized and orchestrated by Mr. Brian Greene and his awesome and incredible panelists, who are so wonderful about sharing and discussing the topics, not only educate us but also entertain by holding our interest throughout. Fantastic and Amazing are not good enough to fully express my feelings nor adequate words of gratitude, but *Thank you!* Keep up the great work!
I thank Mr.Brian Green for organizing such seminars in Science from which students and teachers of Science can get a lot of valuable information and knowledge.
My mind's got a mind of its own It takes me out a walkin' when I'd rather stay at home Takes me out to parties when I'd rather be alone My mind's got a mind of its own Wonderful discussion, thank you!
Absolutely the best most fascinating discussion panel I have seen, partly because of the subject itself and mostly thanks to all participants’ contribution of their great and inputs of deep thinking! It has made me speechless.
Wow every time I listen to such debates. It blows my mind, if the human and the nature is so complex, how complex and incredible is the creator who built such mechanisms in the first place 😮😮😮
Exactly, that's why there's a lot of questions to answer and dive deeper into it to find the Truth as we are getting deeper the more complexity it is to find the Truth.
Thank you so very much. Too few have been blessed with higher education. The presentations are wonderfully accessible , even easy to understand, for all levels. This World Science Festival channel is a huge gift to humanity. We are each UniNotes comprising our melodic Universe.. Joy
Except perhaps for Sperm Whales, who's brains are 6x larger, more developed, and with an advanced reasoning center (neocortex) 6x larger as well. If we really want to know how brains work, we should learn their language and ask them.
at 27:57 one of the best questions humans ever asked. The answer however was vague and distant.. my answer for you mr. Green is time. that lack of perception, that lack of seeing the now.. that time is when our brain removes the chaos! our subconscious handles the heavy matter, and allow us to see clearly.
I say the only way that we can honestly come together is not to hinder the capabilities of your mind being able to transform into something that it was called to transform into. Allow yourself to. Not always thinking that somebody has to have a opinion or give you advice in order for you to think, but to know that your mind is strong enough to move an operator, that's all. If you are willing to be a person that's to sit back and learn, you have to be able to learn something that you already don't know. You can't keep teaching the same thing over and over expecting someone to get brainwashed into your right to your wrongs because brain watching somebody it hurts that brain because it's not yours. It's all type of strategies to learn something to do, but if you don't use the proper strategies for the proper braid, then the brain care have a major setback because it's setting itself all over again. It can be shocked. It's a believing it's something that somebody else believe in. so your brain waves does goes off of your surroundings. If your surroundings is not based upon the atmosphere that you set yourself into or an atmosphere that you see yourself in, then it hinders your movement because you so worried to be so. It's like your old society. Absolutely no comments. Your old society don't respond, especially if they not give you no response to something that's positive of your life. Everybody want to be successful. Everybody want to do something in their life, don't nobody want their life at a standstill, especially nowadays. It's 2024 who wants to sit back and keep on loser jobs being laid off, losing money, losing houses, not the butt distractions because everybody is so about themselves. So when you start putting the bad days on all of those type of areas and bad days of your life and you start healing from those type of days, you start separate yourself and isolate your thoughts from what caused those accidents. What caused that tire be your in in your life? It's like a tire that never stopped rolling in your mind. You keep reminding yourself for the bad behaviors and the bad people because you isolate yourself. So will you remove yourself from those type of people? You did consider them bad because they kept you company. You ain't considerable good either but don't let them have a strong hold over your mind where that they held. Are you captive and they're not there? You can't hold them captive and they're not there cuz that could only block your own intuition to breathe and bring oxygen to the brain. You need oxygen to the brain. Everybody needs to breed when you breed something positive. That means that you were doing good. Your move it forward. If your brain can't breed what you wanted to breed then it's going to be out of standstill cuz it's like you thinking about the ideas but you don't see them.
this by far is the best narrated show on the most up to date "MAINSTREAM" scientific minds theorizing and explaining there knowledge in there own fields on youtube. the open arena is amazing, yet i disagree on most medical stuff the string theory black holes etc is amazing
Which old questions? These are all considerations, points of view, epistemic deontic and not ontologicallly true. Me no see muchum sensum sans divine intervention. Which planet are you on?
To be honest I had no idea this kind of stuff was on TH-cam until a few months ago! Previously, I thought it was personal videos, clips from TV shows, musical artists. What a surprise: documentaries, history, quantum physics, Egyptology, brain science and when I happened upon World Science Fedtival, I knew I hit the jackpot! There is little to no advertising about this any where. Same for TED talks. No one knows because it is not talked about on any other platforms - to my knowldege.
The Main Media is the blame here -- years ago * The Curiosity Show * was a thin end of the wedge to wet , taste , alert , appeal to the young up & coming budding scientists & individual’s appetite !!

Yeah then you see some idiot making weird faces on tik tok and getting millions of views... society has wasted the opportunity given to us via the internet.
Amazing videos. I appreciate all the efforts you put on science. Science is my passion & I respect every single scientist who provides to our world & understanding it🙏🏻🌹
about the depressed part,,, i had to restart over and over again of what i used to do just to get back what i liked to do and it took two days but had a small headache but the headache dissapered after i changed my food intake and drink intake after reading about what human body needs to work properly or what food helps and water during the day help alot, repeat and keep the mind busy while walking trying to revoke feelings while thinking about what i have learned so far about the brain and the body, started to train my body again at the same time thinking alot about what i have learned so far that works best for me to understand my own mind and process it to apply it or try to replace/convert/change my thoughts of patterns that have been traumatizing and i have been thru alot and i mean ALOT
That was a good chat. I hate to say it, but I prefer this style to the live panel discussions in a theater with an audience. The editing here is tight, useful, and focused.
How great it probably feels to be a scientist... there are so many mysteries about our existence, and science finds reasonable rational ways to explain and understand it
It's great though there are also so many flaws in science/academia, e.g. the publish and perish issue, lack of open science, exploitative work conditions such as adjunct professorships and unpaid work, etc. Scientists are crazy really but the love of science definitely blinds! :)
This one of the most important fascinating information and conversation am coming across in the begging of 2024 wow ...its such amazing experience I don't have enough words to explain or express it....
Thjs is really fascinating , the brain has always been beyond my ability to understand its underlying mechanisms .I am very grateful for being sent all this information but I feel it is probablybeyond my ability to use it at this stage of my life .
Despite all our materialist scientific progress, we're only just beginning to scratch the surface in our understanding of the brain, it's purpose and how it works. There isn't even a consensus or agreement on the definition and purpose of the brain. Then, there's the unanswered and more complex & immaterial nature of the"Mind" and finally the holy grail, the ultimate question ... the big "C" .. "consciousness". Thanks Brian, 🙏
@@redswap Gura offered an explanation as best he could for this thing, this mysyerious phenomenon we call consciousness. Now whether he solved it conclusively is debatable, I'd say he did a decent job However, there is a 5000 year old tried n tested Vedic system called "Advaita Vedanta" that specialises in all things "consciousness" related. The current total master of this system of enquiry into consciousness is the Sensational Swami Sarvapriyananda, u tube spiritual guru n and head of the Vedanta Society NY. Try him and know you are just that. Conscious/consciousness/beingness. Tat Tvam Asi 👊🏼✌🏼☝🏼❤
@@onebylandtwoifbysearunifby5475 Actually, the complexity lies in the number of neurons and the number of connections between those neurons in comparison to the brain size, some species have bigger brain sizes than ours and higher numbers of neurons, but in terms of neurons and neuronal connections ratio compared to brain size, we are and by far, the higher ranked of all animals.
@@bedrobnf6861 Sperm Whales would beg to differ. Their brains are 6x larger. Their neocortex is also 6x larger. That's the region of "higher reasoning" "human are special because of" stuff. Our brain is 2% of our body mass, but takes 25% of our glucose. If Sperm Whales weren't using ALL of a brain that large and developed, evolution would have dropped it like a hot rock. As to complexity, Sperm Whales and dolphins are both more complex. The folding of the brain cortex is associated with intelligence, not just dendritic spines and connections. Sperm Whales and dolphins are to human brains what Dogs are to Cats: more developed, more folded. Ours look like cat brains compared to theirs. But this shouldn't be a surprise Whales have more developed brains than humans. Seafood is believed to be the reason human brains were able to develop the way they have. (All the biggest leaps in human society have been near the coast also). It's down to Omega-3 fatty acids required for cognitive development, which seafood is loaded with. And, well... Whales live in the sea. They don't eat many cows. ...Nobody should be surprised humans are 3rd on the developed brain contest. We're FIRST on arrogance though, if it makes you feel better...
We Have Our Brains And We Visualize, Memorize, Analyze, Imagine, Understand, Work Together, Read/Build Machines...About And With Our Brains About Our Brains...Any additions?
@@fabiocaetanofigueiredo1353 I'm referring more to the meaning of life the universe and everything, not life simply in the biological sense. Indeed consciousness could be in some way be connected or part of the same fabric as the universe/Multiverse/Simulation (depending on your views and ideas) Quantum mechanics does seem to hint at this with the measurement problem
I'm very interested in the concept of showing animals the double slit experiment and seeing if their observations affect the outcome. It may be possible that there is a particular creature on earth that creates a third outcome. Also I validate your opinion that this is one of humanity's most important topics.
@@V1ctoria00 interesting 🤔, but as far as I understand it, an animal observing, would still keep the measurement as a wave function, until the information of what it observed, is observed/interpretated by the human brain. At that moment the wave function collapses. The animal just serves as a node for the information to travel through, before it's truly 'observed'
@@Onestringpuppet this would imply a significant difference between human and animal brains. I posit that the results would be the same no matter the brain type observing the interaction. Otherwise If humans are the only creatures that can affect reality in this way it would be defining sentience with a real test and a true measurable outcome. And what does this mean for the cameras we made? Do they possess our sentience? I suggest that anything with a brain can observe the collapsed form and see two bands of electrons but does a camera have a brain? I suggest the actual answer lies in the connection between our mind and the electric and chemical signals that arise in the brain and the way those actual particles of matter affect the quantum level of matter and entangle themselves with the cameras particles, leaving an impression that is then directed at the particles afterwards, or directly entangling with their presence while they observe first hand. But also there's the chance that some humans don't observe the function to have collapsed. We don't know what the true cause is. It could be a bacteria found in humans and on our stuff, or something about brain cells and their ability to organize electric signals is able to extend beyond the body it is in. We need more testing.
He is one of the greatest neuroscientist currently. You should be proud. Even when we do not know how brain works, for me, (and for many more neuroscientists), he is maybe the neuroscientist that have the most close idea of how the brain(s) work.
@@ignacionegronoyarzo1943 thank you, I do feel proud, even tho the sad truth is that great minds have little to no chance to flourish in Hungary, they all have to leave and become successful and famous somewhere else 😕
Our senses are probably guided by a genius genetic code within, sometimes I wonder if even sufferers of psychosis are us all psychic at the same time and we already have that answer?!
So we basically have a dial up connection between a brain and a computer, the implications here are absolutely ground breaking. This is a major breakthrough in decoding the brain. The mental health industry is set for a total overhaul. Aaaaand this can possibly be used in tandem with a polygraph to really really see if someone is lying
We just finished reading your astounding book until the end of time ... we love it all the way BUTTTT in regards to the new human form the evolved version we disagree because we believe it will be a combination of both Physics and Biology not pure physics as you mentioned
Physics explains biology and chemistry. It is the principle field that governs all the sciences so it is actually more accurate and concise. You can obviously disagree but it would be wrong. You can derive all chemistry and biology though physics. You can also derive biology through chemistry as biology is the 3rd hierarchical scientific principle. Just so I don’t sound like a facetious I see why you would of said it but couldn’t resist correcting it sorry. Peace and love ❤️
What happens with mental illness is often an eruption of the subconscious mind which happens when the ego is weak and becomes overwhelmed by the symbolic entities of the subconsciousness mind. Our minds are triune: Superconscious, Conscious, and Subconsciousness. All minds can express through the brain.. All are independent bodies of consciousness that expresses through the brain. Consciousness is fundamental and mind is triune. A person can be treated wrongly if this is not understood. The brain is an instrument that enables the expression of consciousness and mind(s) at whatever level they are expressing or are enabled to express.
One oft overlooked reality: our "brain" is actually distributed throughout the body. It's concentrated in the head and spinal cord and gut, but also has fibers connected everywhere. It's a system, not a location.
Interoception and proprioception are important but as we see from locked-in and spinal cord injuries the brain really is kind of its own City first and foremost so this reality is important but kind of missing what the talk is about.
@@glormoparch5154 Is your coat still your coat if part of it gets caught in the car door? Or is that part outside the car no longer part of your coat? Is "coat" a location? Or is it a function? We're not talking about "the head", but "the brain". I think it's fundamental. The gut has such neuronal density it is now called "the 2nd brain", and is responsible for altering blood-brain barrier permeability and function. Behavior is directly altered by gut neuron responses, including to diet. Gut brain is part of the human brain just as cranial brain is. As to spinal cord, it is part of the brain and makes decisions on afferent nerve inputs coming from the body that never reach the cranial brain. Those inputs, resulting *decisions,* and efferent outputs to the body are spinal cord only, which is why a chicken can run around with its head cut off. Yes, proprioception is a sense, and humans have more than 5 of these. It does inform the brain, just as the optic nerve and retina (also part of the brain). But i mean fundamentally, certainly in philosophical "consiousness": intelligence is somatically distributed. The innervation of nerve fibers in endocrine regulation glands is an example of this-- chemical and nervous control are linked. "Nervous system" includes endocrine feedback loops and neural tissue regulation, as well as neural tissue. "Brain" is the system of neural tissue proper, especially in over-densities like cranium, gut, and spinal cord. It's a system. Developmental Neurobiology shows us clearly the "spinal cord" is the descending portion of the cranial brain. Pons and medullary pyramid, and the corticospinal pathways for motor fibres found in the medullary pyramid- of course are "brain", so brain must also include spinal cord- (unless that medullary pyramid is considered "spinal cord", which happens to be located in the cranial brain. Kinda hard to say spinal cord isn't part of the brain then, yes?). As the argument for this, i also argue "gut brain" / "2nd brain" is duly part of the brain proper, just as the brain has 2 hemispheres in 2 different physical locations: the combined functions are dependant and inseparable in non-pathology subjects. No no- "brain" is a function; a system- not a location. Most of it happens to reside in rostral direction- but the caudal most portions are the spinal cord and gut. It's clearly a system in my view. The fact that individual neurons can decide if an object in the visual field is moving shows the cells' individual intelligence. Collections of these cells only get more intelligent as number increases. Does it matter if those networks are in the skull? No, why would it? The skull isn't part of the brain by any reasonable definition. It's just a bony support structure, like the spine is to the spinal cord. Ok, well that's my view on it anyhow. I still respect your opinions and dissent. (Btw, i do appreciate your rational arguments. It's an improvement on the "no" zombies who never think about thoughts.)
@@onebylandtwoifbysearunifby5475 these are all fine observations but decoding the brain was the main topic. While we don't have brains in vats medically and practically they are addressing the main system dynamics while these other interactions are important but not limiting or defining. When we interact with a person they don't charge much with artificial heart or dialysis machine etc. While the brain requires a substrate or action like buzaki points out you don't need to observe the entire body to help someone locked in communicate. You will need to keep them alive no doubt but like amputees etc there is no real evidence for needing every body part for the brain to maintain homeostasis both in terms of someone's identity or functionally. You can argue that people only exist in full form but this seems like the same platonic nonsense you are trying to avoid with your full body approach. We can go on being conscious with limited body functionality but the more you hack at the brain the evidence is that in our shared reality here now on this earth as we understand it consciousness goes away.
Hey Dr. , I belong to India, I am 19 years old now, I want to become a neuroscientist. I want to do mind reading and any data entry in mind. The way it is done in harddisk. Because mind is the most powerful thing in the world. But we do not know in which branch of 'mind interconnect computer' engineer or neuroscience. (Which branch of medical or engineering should I take admission in?)
The similarity between the neural and synapse structure of the brain and universal filaments and galaxies is striking. Our genetic code is a kind of long term memory, ontogeny recapitulates phylogeny, and our bodies are audio-video-olfactory-taste-thermal-electrical and acceleration sensing multi-signal fused sensors, and vocal, written language and gesture broadcasting transmitters of information, that work in harmony, then make calculations on subsequent response actions, with our brains acting like binary or multiple choice quantum CPUs, that try to make sense out of the environment we reside in, with both genetic and active memory aiding in this. There seems to be a nested ellipsoidal, self-similar fractal volume pattern shared by the universe and our brain, and for a short period of time as sensing observers of our world and universe, our brains, or rather our whole physical being, acts like an antenna that for at least a short time period, 100 years if your lucky, is in tune with the universe, or at least has a modicum of focus on our surrounding reality? Our beings become woke, or conscious for relativity short periods of time after we pop into existence and existence gets real, then at the end of that time period, say as a lucky 100 year old, that reality fades back into the unrealised dream world of quantum possibilities? We're virtual observers that pop in and out of existence, we just linger longer than virtual particles so to speak? This provides hope that we are useful functional components of a larger much more expansive and longer lived universe, organism, consciousness or being etc., it only seems logical that we are a part of a larger entity of some kind. Does a red or white blood cell know how large a mammal for example hosts it? We are real for a while, but still limited in our grasp of both the largest and smallest mechanisms of our temporary realities, of the complete picture? The sensing antenna analogy that can also store and transmit information perhaps provides a hint to a larger system? Da Vinci, Dali and Van Gogh were perhaps more in tune with larger realities, Albert too, to name but a few.

The Brain is the simplest instrument in the human body. All great things are simple. Remember? And THAT is why it appears so complicated. If a guy without any knowledge of music is made to look at the hands of a pianist while she's playing the piano with the audio output muted, the guy will neither be able to replicate the scale on his voice, nor will he be able to play that back on another instrument. But someone with the knowledge of music notation, will do it with ease. It's the same with the brain. Most neuroscientists are wasting time trying to find a generalized solution to the structure, being extraordinarily lazy. But Brian brings in quality people i must say. And yes, there's this man, called Jack Gallant, who's perhaps among the only neuroscientists in the world who are getting the human brain right.
So, with Dr. Mayberg 's sharing about what I call the sound current. That's pretty exciting. The physical body's natural state is regulated or can be regulated by the sound current. Its why meditation works. It's an inner process. However, I can see when individuals lose a certain number of amps if you will during the lifestyle they're living which can take place. An example might be drugs, alcohol, or other activities that are done over and over to the point of exhausting the supply and lack of self-care.
Over the last 10 years, I have made multiple attempts to complete a 40 day/night vow of silence (NO VOLUNTARY NOISE emitted, not just no speaking). The longest I made it was 9 whole days, but something that I experienced is that I have had to record myself because there were instances in which I couldn't figure out if I had made a noise. Literally, I couldn't discern whether or not my vocal chords has vibrated. When listening to the recording of myself, in some of the instances I had indeed made a noise while others I just thought I had spoken out loud. Why would that be?

Brian Greene is so great at facilitating these talks and helping to get the point across for laymen. These are fascinating topics and it's amazing to realize we are at the very beginning of our understanding of how this all works.
He doesn't know what happened before the big bang tho
@@waterproof4403 No one does. But then, you know that.

Thanks from 🇹🇭
From one collection of neural circuits to another-thanks for sparking synapses and enhancing my brain's playlist on memory, speech, depression, and consciousness. Best cerebral recommendation on TH-cam!
Brian is such a great speaker. His tone, emphasis, and intelligence makes him so soothing to listen to!
He is so great at coming up with easy to understand but very specific and deep questions. I love it!
except when he talks about string theory lol
Our brains are a quantum entangled neural network. The neuron is a complex standalone processor, a functional node in a neural network. Individually we only control a single neuron (node) which ties into our entire nervous system. We all exist inside of each other's neural network otherwise we couldn't share an experience.
Atomic nuclei are binary switches with a twist. An atom consists of one or more of these simple binary switches fused together to produce the binary equivalent of a byte.
The 0s and 1s in binary represent OFF or ON, respectively. In a transistor, a "0" represents no flow of electricity, and "1" represents electricity being allowed to flow. In this way, numbers are represented physically inside the computing device, permitting calculations.
Atoms are built from quarks, two up quarks and one down quark produce a proton. Two down quarks and one up quark produce a neutron, they are interchangeable. A neutron is unstable outside of the nucleus of the atom and will decay into a proton. Protons are stable outside of the nucleus.
Neutron "0" represents no flow of electricity.
Proton "1" represents electricity being able to flow.
The carbon atom for example represents 6 protons, 6 neutrons, 6 electrons. That makes up the nucleus of the carbon atom, so it represents a 12 bit byte. Each proton and neutron represent a single binary digit.
A single carbon atom representing 666, is a 12 bit byte. If you account for particle spin you realize that these 12 bit bytes of carbon can be arranged in various nuclei alignments, to represent any combination possible within that 12 bit byte. This is just a single carbon atom.
12 binary digits, or 3 nibbles (a 'tribble'), have 4096 (10000 octal, 1000 hexadecimal) distinct combinations. Hence, a microprocessor with 12-bit memory addresses can directly access 4096 words (4 Kw) of word-addressable memory.
The average human cell contains roughly 100 trillion atoms and each atomic nucleus contains 1 or more simple switches. Each neuron of our brain is a sophisticated standalone processor connected to 85-90 billion other stand alone processors. Producing a very powerful processing architecture.
If you can physically experience and perceive it.. consciously, you are connected to it neurologically. Our brain is a neural network of quantum entangled nodes (neurons).
We only control our own individual node and the nervous system it represents. If the neurological network didn't exist, we wouldn't consciously be able to share an experience. There are only 7.9 billion other humans on earth, our neurological network consists of 85 to 90 billion neurons.
For you to read what I have typed on this page right here. I must exist inside of your neurology as a node on your network, otherwise you couldn't make a neurological connection to experience what I have typed. You also have to exist as a node on my neurological network in order for me to broadcast this message to you on this binary representation of our consciously entangled manifestation. When you meet a node on the network, inside of the projected universe, your neurons connect internally through branched connections and this allows both neurons to exchange information subconsciously.
If you get a good or bad vibe from someone, trust that the subconscious didn't like what it saw upon forging a neurological connection. Mine and your neurons exist inside of both of our brains but require us to interact inside the projected universe before these neurons will forge a branch connection to one another.
We are all connected subconsciously, neurologically. When we meet in this projected universe, the neuron that represents me and the neuron that represents you in both of our brains will create branch connections to each other where it can project our individual but shared experience to us.
We are all a projection of self. Self is not unique to the individual, the individual is unique to self. SELF is the operating system driving our individual consciousness. We are all just a duality of self.
Beautiful poetic representation of meta-solipsism
@@redswap Thanks for reading and taking time to drop a reply.
Scientific facts mixed with pseudoscientific concepts. You reference up and down quarks, but not strange, charm, top or bottom. You reference protons and neutrons as 0s and 1s, but don't account for electrons or photons or other particles. Also, when you speak about getting someone energy, , that is a result of social evolutionary pattern matching that allows us to predict someone's demeanor based on subtle actions, body language, tonality, and a multitude of other information we subconsciously absorb. I understand your words because I contain the experiential knowledge of language, because my eyes are taking in light from reflected photons and delivering that information to my brain and turning it into meaningful information, not because of the esoteric bs you just said.

I truly appreciate the work done by Brian Greene to broaden his own view of the world and the willingness of these experts to put their opinions on the line.
I recently found this channel, kind of by accident, and I have to say that the videos I've watched in the topics that interest me have been FANTASTIC. Amazing work coordinated and skillfully organized and orchestrated by Mr. Brian Greene and his awesome and incredible panelists, who are so wonderful about sharing and discussing the topics, not only educate us but also entertain by holding our interest throughout. Fantastic and Amazing are not good enough to fully express my feelings nor adequate words of gratitude, but *Thank you!* Keep up the great work!
Exactly. You rendered my disordered thought awell ordered verbal form.
I thank Mr.Brian Green for organizing such seminars in Science from which students and teachers of Science can get a lot of valuable information and knowledge.

Absolutely the best most fascinating discussion panel I have seen, partly because of the subject itself and mostly thanks to all participants’ contribution of their great and inputs of deep thinking! It has made me speechless.
Love these talks. Would love to see Robert Sapolsky in World Science Festival on such topics of the brain/mind.
Love that guy ❤
I too love that guy
Me too!
He's THE GOAT
Hopefully Mr Brian or whoever programs the panelists takes note!
Wow every time I listen to such debates. It blows my mind, if the human and the nature is so complex, how complex and incredible is the creator who built such mechanisms in the first place 😮😮😮
Exactly, that's why there's a lot of questions to answer and dive deeper into it to find the Truth as we are getting deeper the more complexity it is to find the Truth.
Thank you so very much. Too few have been blessed with higher education.
The presentations are wonderfully accessible , even easy to understand, for all levels.
This World Science Festival channel is a huge gift to humanity.

Thanks for this video! It is facinating to see all these highly qualified professionals to share their thougths and studies about our brain!!
The human brain is far more sophisticated and complex than any brain can imagine. 😀
says the brain
Except perhaps for Sperm Whales, who's brains are 6x larger, more developed, and with an advanced reasoning center (neocortex) 6x larger as well. If we really want to know how brains work, we should learn their language and ask them.
@@onebylandtwoifbysearunifby5475 they probably don't know how their brain works. Just like how humans don't fully know how brain works
Yeah.. you think all this was created by a big bang? A random explosion ?
What if I told you you were right?! Hope to bring more enlightenment to you
at 27:57 one of the best questions humans ever asked. The answer however was vague and distant.. my answer for you mr. Green is time. that lack of perception, that lack of seeing the now.. that time is when our brain removes the chaos! our subconscious handles the heavy matter, and allow us to see clearly.
I believe time is when our brain accumulates sometimes chaos yet always calculated towards order.
Is it true that when information is lost that order is created in the brain? Now that I think about it, what makes a brain chaotic vs stable?
I say the only way that we can honestly come together is not to hinder the capabilities of your mind being able to transform into something that it was called to transform into. Allow yourself to. Not always thinking that somebody has to have a opinion or give you advice in order for you to think, but to know that your mind is strong enough to move an operator, that's all. If you are willing to be a person that's to sit back and learn, you have to be able to learn something that you already don't know. You can't keep teaching the same thing over and over expecting someone to get brainwashed into your right to your wrongs because brain watching somebody it hurts that brain because it's not yours. It's all type of strategies to learn something to do, but if you don't use the proper strategies for the proper braid, then the brain care have a major setback because it's setting itself all over again. It can be shocked. It's a believing it's something that somebody else believe in. so your brain waves does goes off of your surroundings. If your surroundings is not based upon the atmosphere that you set yourself into or an atmosphere that you see yourself in, then it hinders your movement because you so worried to be so. It's like your old society. Absolutely no comments. Your old society don't respond, especially if they not give you no response to something that's positive of your life. Everybody want to be successful. Everybody want to do something in their life, don't nobody want their life at a standstill, especially nowadays. It's 2024 who wants to sit back and keep on loser jobs being laid off, losing money, losing houses, not the butt distractions because everybody is so about themselves. So when you start putting the bad days on all of those type of areas and bad days of your life and you start healing from those type of days, you start separate yourself and isolate your thoughts from what caused those accidents. What caused that tire be your in in your life? It's like a tire that never stopped rolling in your mind. You keep reminding yourself for the bad behaviors and the bad people because you isolate yourself. So will you remove yourself from those type of people? You did consider them bad because they kept you company. You ain't considerable good either but don't let them have a strong hold over your mind where that they held. Are you captive and they're not there? You can't hold them captive and they're not there cuz that could only block your own intuition to breathe and bring oxygen to the brain. You need oxygen to the brain. Everybody needs to breed when you breed something positive. That means that you were doing good. Your move it forward. If your brain can't breed what you wanted to breed then it's going to be out of standstill cuz it's like you thinking about the ideas but you don't see them.
so excited for a new one!!
Ditto! My first thought: “This was posted only 17 hours ago! NEW!”
The fact that they post the day before the video is watchable brings back the anticipation of waiting for next week's show on cable.
this by far is the best narrated show on the most up to date "MAINSTREAM" scientific minds theorizing and explaining there knowledge in there own fields on youtube. the open arena is amazing, yet i disagree on most medical stuff the string theory black holes etc is amazing
This was one very enjoyable conversation. To find answers to how thought works is going to be answers to the oldest questions.
Which old questions? These are all considerations, points of view, epistemic deontic and not ontologicallly true. Me no see muchum sensum sans divine intervention. Which planet are you on?
It's surprising how little views these videos get. They're amazing.
It is very sad.
To be honest I had no idea this kind of stuff was on TH-cam until a few months ago! Previously, I thought it was personal videos, clips from TV shows, musical artists. What a surprise: documentaries, history, quantum physics, Egyptology, brain science and when I happened upon World Science Fedtival, I knew I hit the jackpot! There is little to no advertising about this any where. Same for TED talks. No one knows because it is not talked about on any other platforms - to my knowldege.

But ur a coward tho
this is already over??? and it was an hour??? we need part 2.... and followups on all of these people's work :D
about the depressed part,,, i had to restart over and over again of what i used to do just to get back what i liked to do and it took two days but had a small headache but the headache dissapered after i changed my food intake and drink intake after reading about what human body needs to work properly or what food helps and water during the day help alot, repeat and keep the mind busy while walking trying to revoke feelings while thinking about what i have learned so far about the brain and the body, started to train my body again at the same time thinking alot about what i have learned so far that works best for me to understand my own mind and process it to apply it or try to replace/convert/change my thoughts of patterns that have been traumatizing and i have been thru alot and i mean ALOT
Truly fascinating, coming from scientists who are leading the discoveries.
The work that Edward Chang is doing is extremely interesting.
That was a good chat. I hate to say it, but I prefer this style to the live panel discussions in a theater with an audience. The editing here is tight, useful, and focused.

Ok second watch - sending to the back of my “watch later” lost again
Super cool. I love learning from big brains. 🧠 🦋🌈✨👣☝️
I just want to tune in and listen to Professor Brian Greene.
How great it probably feels to be a scientist... there are so many mysteries about our existence, and science finds reasonable rational ways to explain and understand it
It's great though there are also so many flaws in science/academia, e.g. the publish and perish issue, lack of open science, exploitative work conditions such as adjunct professorships and unpaid work, etc. Scientists are crazy really but the love of science definitely blinds! :)
This one of the most important fascinating information and conversation am coming across in the begging of 2024 wow ...its such amazing experience I don't have enough words to explain or express it....
What a fascinating conversation. Thank you.
Peace be with you and thank you too
Thjs is really fascinating , the brain has always been beyond my ability to understand its underlying mechanisms .I am very grateful for being sent all this information but I feel it is probablybeyond my ability to use it at this stage of my life .
It took nature about 4.3 billion years to come up with something as complex and awesome as the human brain. 💕 ☮ 🌎 🌌
Try God. You might find something else between the millions of years
@@Tristan-om2ff no proof
I don't know about you but I don't feel like the product of 4.3 billion years of evolution 😅 shame we don't come with receipts.
Despite all our materialist scientific progress, we're only just beginning to scratch the surface in our understanding of the brain, it's purpose and how it works.
There isn't even a consensus or agreement on the definition and purpose of the brain.
Then, there's the unanswered and more complex & immaterial nature of the"Mind" and finally the holy grail, the ultimate question ... the big "C" .. "consciousness".
Thanks Brian, 🙏

Now whether he solved it conclusively is debatable, I'd say he did a decent job

"the brain is the most complex structure in the entire universe".
The brain.
So conceited
Somewhere a Sperm Whale just spit out it's squid and burst into laughter. (Their brains are 6x ours, and with more folding.)
@@TheMagnificentGman Agreed, it's something only a human would say. And just as accurate as "chewing gum takes 7 years to digest if you swallow it".
@@onebylandtwoifbysearunifby5475
Actually, the complexity lies in the number of neurons and the number of connections between those neurons in comparison to the brain size, some species have bigger brain sizes than ours and higher numbers of neurons, but in terms of neurons and neuronal connections ratio compared to brain size, we are and by far, the higher ranked of all animals.
@@bedrobnf6861 Sperm Whales would beg to differ. Their brains are 6x larger. Their neocortex is also 6x larger. That's the region of "higher reasoning" "human are special because of" stuff.
Our brain is 2% of our body mass, but takes 25% of our glucose. If Sperm Whales weren't using ALL of a brain that large and developed, evolution would have dropped it like a hot rock.
As to complexity, Sperm Whales and dolphins are both more complex. The folding of the brain cortex is associated with intelligence, not just dendritic spines and connections. Sperm Whales and dolphins are to human brains what Dogs are to Cats: more developed, more folded. Ours look like cat brains compared to theirs.
But this shouldn't be a surprise Whales have more developed brains than humans. Seafood is believed to be the reason human brains were able to develop the way they have. (All the biggest leaps in human society have been near the coast also). It's down to Omega-3 fatty acids required for cognitive development, which seafood is loaded with. And, well... Whales live in the sea. They don't eat many cows. ...Nobody should be surprised humans are 3rd on the developed brain contest. We're FIRST on arrogance though, if it makes you feel better...
We Have Our Brains And We Visualize, Memorize, Analyze, Imagine, Understand, Work Together, Read/Build Machines...About And With Our Brains About Our Brains...Any additions?
This topic really seems to be at the forefront of the next step in our understanding of what life/the universe is
Sorry, it's a magnificent topic - I'm a physician - but it has nothing to do with understanding what life is. MAYBE consciousness.
@@fabiocaetanofigueiredo1353 I'm referring more to the meaning of life the universe and everything, not life simply in the biological sense. Indeed consciousness could be in some way be connected or part of the same fabric as the universe/Multiverse/Simulation (depending on your views and ideas) Quantum mechanics does seem to hint at this with the measurement problem
I'm very interested in the concept of showing animals the double slit experiment and seeing if their observations affect the outcome. It may be possible that there is a particular creature on earth that creates a third outcome. Also I validate your opinion that this is one of humanity's most important topics.
@@V1ctoria00 interesting 🤔, but as far as I understand it, an animal observing, would still keep the measurement as a wave function, until the information of what it observed, is observed/interpretated by the human brain. At that moment the wave function collapses. The animal just serves as a node for the information to travel through, before it's truly 'observed'
@@Onestringpuppet this would imply a significant difference between human and animal brains. I posit that the results would be the same no matter the brain type observing the interaction. Otherwise If humans are the only creatures that can affect reality in this way it would be defining sentience with a real test and a true measurable outcome. And what does this mean for the cameras we made? Do they possess our sentience? I suggest that anything with a brain can observe the collapsed form and see two bands of electrons but does a camera have a brain? I suggest the actual answer lies in the connection between our mind and the electric and chemical signals that arise in the brain and the way those actual particles of matter affect the quantum level of matter and entangle themselves with the cameras particles, leaving an impression that is then directed at the particles afterwards, or directly entangling with their presence while they observe first hand. But also there's the chance that some humans don't observe the function to have collapsed. We don't know what the true cause is. It could be a bacteria found in humans and on our stuff, or something about brain cells and their ability to organize electric signals is able to extend beyond the body it is in. We need more testing.
Ooooh,. so nice to see a Hungarian scientist on the panel 😊 greetings from Hungary 🇭🇺

WSF has become my favorite YT channel. Thank you for the fantastic content.
It's interesting that we know so much about how the brain works but have no idea why we are concious of the experience.
Our senses are probably guided by a genius genetic code within, sometimes I wonder if even sufferers of psychosis are us all psychic at the same time and we already have that answer?!
The self can never fully grasp itself.
So we basically have a dial up connection between a brain and a computer, the implications here are absolutely ground breaking. This is a major breakthrough in decoding the brain. The mental health industry is set for a total overhaul. Aaaaand this can possibly be used in tandem with a polygraph to really really see if someone is lying
Great job, I'll be back in a couple hundred years to check your progress on this subject😂
😂😂
DAMN, the expertise in this is mind-bending 😱😱😱😱
We just finished reading your astounding book until the end of time ... we love it all the way BUTTTT in regards to the new human form the evolved version we disagree because we believe it will be a combination of both Physics and Biology not pure physics as you mentioned
Physics explains biology and chemistry. It is the principle field that governs all the sciences so it is actually more accurate and concise. You can obviously disagree but it would be wrong. You can derive all chemistry and biology though physics. You can also derive biology through chemistry as biology is the 3rd hierarchical scientific principle. Just so I don’t sound like a facetious I see why you would of said it but couldn’t resist correcting it sorry. Peace and love ❤️
What happens with mental illness is often an eruption of the subconscious mind which happens when the ego is weak and becomes overwhelmed by the symbolic entities of the subconsciousness mind. Our minds are triune: Superconscious, Conscious, and Subconsciousness. All minds can express through the brain..
All are independent bodies of consciousness that expresses through the brain. Consciousness is fundamental and mind is triune. A person can be treated wrongly if this is not understood. The brain is an instrument that enables the expression of consciousness and mind(s) at whatever level they are expressing or are enabled to express.
One oft overlooked reality: our "brain" is actually distributed throughout the body. It's concentrated in the head and spinal cord and gut, but also has fibers connected everywhere. It's a system, not a location.
fck no
No.
Interoception and proprioception are important but as we see from locked-in and spinal cord injuries the brain really is kind of its own City first and foremost so this reality is important but kind of missing what the talk is about.
@@glormoparch5154 Is your coat still your coat if part of it gets caught in the car door? Or is that part outside the car no longer part of your coat? Is "coat" a location? Or is it a function? We're not talking about "the head", but "the brain".
I think it's fundamental. The gut has such neuronal density it is now called "the 2nd brain", and is responsible for altering blood-brain barrier permeability and function. Behavior is directly altered by gut neuron responses, including to diet. Gut brain is part of the human brain just as cranial brain is.
As to spinal cord, it is part of the brain and makes decisions on afferent nerve inputs coming from the body that never reach the cranial brain. Those inputs, resulting *decisions,* and efferent outputs to the body are spinal cord only, which is why a chicken can run around with its head cut off.
Yes, proprioception is a sense, and humans have more than 5 of these. It does inform the brain, just as the optic nerve and retina (also part of the brain). But i mean fundamentally, certainly in philosophical "consiousness": intelligence is somatically distributed. The innervation of nerve fibers in endocrine regulation glands is an example of this-- chemical and nervous control are linked. "Nervous system" includes endocrine feedback loops and neural tissue regulation, as well as neural tissue. "Brain" is the system of neural tissue proper, especially in over-densities like cranium, gut, and spinal cord. It's a system.
Developmental Neurobiology shows us clearly the "spinal cord" is the descending portion of the cranial brain. Pons and medullary pyramid, and the corticospinal pathways for motor fibres found in the medullary pyramid- of course are "brain", so brain must also include spinal cord- (unless that medullary pyramid is considered "spinal cord", which happens to be located in the cranial brain. Kinda hard to say spinal cord isn't part of the brain then, yes?).
As the argument for this, i also argue "gut brain" / "2nd brain" is duly part of the brain proper, just as the brain has 2 hemispheres in 2 different physical locations: the combined functions are dependant and inseparable in non-pathology subjects.
No no- "brain" is a function; a system- not a location. Most of it happens to reside in rostral direction- but the caudal most portions are the spinal cord and gut. It's clearly a system in my view. The fact that individual neurons can decide if an object in the visual field is moving shows the cells' individual intelligence. Collections of these cells only get more intelligent as number increases. Does it matter if those networks are in the skull? No, why would it? The skull isn't part of the brain by any reasonable definition. It's just a bony support structure, like the spine is to the spinal cord.
Ok, well that's my view on it anyhow. I still respect your opinions and dissent. (Btw, i do appreciate your rational arguments. It's an improvement on the "no" zombies who never think about thoughts.)
@@onebylandtwoifbysearunifby5475 these are all fine observations but decoding the brain was the main topic. While we don't have brains in vats medically and practically they are addressing the main system dynamics while these other interactions are important but not limiting or defining. When we interact with a person they don't charge much with artificial heart or dialysis machine etc. While the brain requires a substrate or action like buzaki points out you don't need to observe the entire body to help someone locked in communicate. You will need to keep them alive no doubt but like amputees etc there is no real evidence for needing every body part for the brain to maintain homeostasis both in terms of someone's identity or functionally. You can argue that people only exist in full form but this seems like the same platonic nonsense you are trying to avoid with your full body approach. We can go on being conscious with limited body functionality but the more you hack at the brain the evidence is that in our shared reality here now on this earth as we understand it consciousness goes away.
Hey Dr. , I belong to India, I am 19 years old now, I want to become a neuroscientist. I want to do mind reading and any data entry in mind.
The way it is done in harddisk. Because mind is the most powerful thing in the world. But we do not know in which branch of 'mind interconnect computer' engineer or neuroscience. (Which branch of medical or engineering should I take admission in?)
Maybe a Bachelor of Science in "Computational Neuroscience" to begin with? Good luck! :)
The similarity between the neural and synapse structure of the brain and universal filaments and galaxies is striking.
Our genetic code is a kind of long term memory, ontogeny recapitulates phylogeny, and our bodies are audio-video-olfactory-taste-thermal-electrical and acceleration sensing multi-signal fused sensors, and vocal, written language and gesture broadcasting transmitters of information, that work in harmony, then make calculations on subsequent response actions, with our brains acting like binary or multiple choice quantum CPUs, that try to make sense out of the environment we reside in, with both genetic and active memory aiding in this.
There seems to be a nested ellipsoidal, self-similar fractal volume pattern shared by the universe and our brain, and for a short period of time as sensing observers of our world and universe, our brains, or rather our whole physical being, acts like an antenna that for at least a short time period, 100 years if your lucky, is in tune with the universe, or at least has a modicum of focus on our surrounding reality?
Our beings become woke, or conscious for relativity short periods of time after we pop into existence and existence gets real, then at the end of that time period, say as a lucky 100 year old, that reality fades back into the unrealised dream world of quantum possibilities?
We're virtual observers that pop in and out of existence, we just linger longer than virtual particles so to speak? This provides hope that we are useful functional components of a larger much more expansive and longer lived universe, organism, consciousness or being etc., it only seems logical that we are a part of a larger entity of some kind. Does a red or white blood cell know how large a mammal for example hosts it? We are real for a while, but still limited in our grasp of both the largest and smallest mechanisms of our temporary realities, of the complete picture?
The sensing antenna analogy that can also store and transmit information perhaps provides a hint to a larger system?
Da Vinci, Dali and Van Gogh were perhaps more in tune with larger realities, Albert too, to name but a few.
You think all of this was possible by a random explosion in space ?

So thankful for these free resources

1. Get enough sleep -- 8 hours at least.
2. A healthy Diet / No SUGAR / No MSG.
Mediterranean Diet Eat colorful foods. Take care oh your -- GUT Health
3. 30 mins 7 days a week -- (Think of it as "activity", not "exercise." )
4. Avoid stress -- Take care of yourself. (Avoid drugs and alcohol as they can add to stress).
5. Learning and doing new things.
6. Listen music -- Music affects the brain in profound ways. It eases stress by lowering cortisol. It floods the brain with pleasurable neurotransmitters like dopamine. And it serves as a conduit through which we can process emotions that otherwise might not be describable in words.
Beep bop boop, no one can decode my brain , cuz its sooooooooooooooooooooooooo advancerd ;-)
AdvanceRd?
Not as advanced as my Brian
Your brain is probably already hacked if you took the vaccine 😂🤣
Hahaha I can’t. 😂😂🥰🦋🌈✨👣
@@laurenthomas9344 yes, yes you can, I beweeve in U!
I am interested in the electromagnetic forces associated with, and/or generated by the brain. I would loe yo hear from anyone who has details in this asect.
Mind blown… grateful for these amazing humans searching for the answers to the most fundamental question, What is it like to be human and conscious.
What is a collaborative thinker ? Why is collaborative mindset important ? What is a collaborative thought process ? What is a collaborative approach ?
Thanks for exposing us to neurological discourses, my Psyche is intrigued...
Thank you, Brian, for hosting this interesting discussions on brain research, you are a smart brain, look forward to your next show.
Pardon my typing errors due to impaired eye s ight that expost I see making sense out of what is written words 'metaphor',blind etc. In the real-time, I find self organizing evolving brain system is best approach to map the mind.
What is the cause of deafness in humans?
Are a identity and personality analyses possible to do with now adays scince and tools. How a bad luck person be if he got good luck and idealic conciqenses in his childhood?
"The dream we dream together" ghosted Poe's "A dream within a dream." Fantastic program, great humans up there teaching me stuff. I want a quantum theory of mind. Maybe in that we could use our consciousnesses to understand consciousness. Maybe not, because, as Kant said long ago, we only have our brains to understand our brains. Not a fair fight. Thanks OP for this presentation. It matters so much to me, and from the comments, to others.

The Brain is the simplest instrument in the human body. All great things are simple. Remember? And THAT is why it appears so complicated. If a guy without any knowledge of music is made to look at the hands of a pianist while she's playing the piano with the audio output muted, the guy will neither be able to replicate the scale on his voice, nor will he be able to play that back on another instrument. But someone with the knowledge of music notation, will do it with ease. It's the same with the brain. Most neuroscientists are wasting time trying to find a generalized solution to the structure, being extraordinarily lazy. But Brian brings in quality people i must say. And yes, there's this man, called Jack Gallant, who's perhaps among the only neuroscientists in the world who are getting the human brain right.
1 hour is nowhere near long enough for 5 panel members imho. Love the work, appreciate the longer long form of yore, though
Hello my dear friend! thank you for the cool video! keep filming! I'll wait for new videos
Great content... And free! I love this group people working to educate humanity on things that matter 🙏🏾🙋🏼♀️

What is the cause of epilepsy?
So, with Dr. Mayberg 's sharing about what I call the sound current. That's pretty exciting. The physical body's natural state is regulated or can be regulated by the sound current. Its why meditation works. It's an inner process. However, I can see when individuals lose a certain number of amps if you will during the lifestyle they're living which can take place. An example might be drugs, alcohol, or other activities that are done over and over to the point of exhausting the supply and lack of self-care.
I would have not watched this if the background had not stopped!!
Even the first few minutes drove me crazy!
Fascinating! Thanks for sharing your knowledge about this amazing organ in our body.
Anything about what we know about the human brain is so fascinating I so enjoy the input of such intelligent doctors and Scientists.
Over the last 10 years, I have made multiple attempts to complete a 40 day/night vow of silence (NO VOLUNTARY NOISE emitted, not just no speaking). The longest I made it was 9 whole days, but something that I experienced is that I have had to record myself because there were instances in which I couldn't figure out if I had made a noise. Literally, I couldn't discern whether or not my vocal chords has vibrated. When listening to the recording of myself, in some of the instances I had indeed made a noise while others I just thought I had spoken out loud. Why would that be?
Amazing talk, was very much appreciated.
mr. G i can see it on your face bored stiff after every person talks....interested in little after reciting it so many times in practice i imagine...but i respect your brain sir. thank you for the content.
My daughter has a nuerological disorder. I wish I was clever enough to understand how to help/heal her.
I have memories that is important to everyone , a 20 year journey for trust that must ne shared. Truth can ne difficult to accept because of social pressures and funding.I have the right to belive. I hope no one os stuck on fear to believe .will not work witk anyone that tortured animals.Blind Alley is the ones who believe if you look at the sun you will go blind and has no need to observe.( Stuck)
Go within is the answer !! the mind is the secondary to the heart.

Dear respected and honourable Sir, at first namesker. Very good video about Decoding the Brain. ** The Human Brain is the most powerful in our daily life** I once again Thank You Sir!
If u don't think one person can make a huge difference...you haven't heard of Brian Greene.
Thank you Mr. Greene for bringing physics to us, the Great Unwashed.
We have more need for individuals in the medical field more than ever. Again, social media, some types of films affect certain people, and the constant media input 24/7 as well as the constant noise level that affects the neurological system. Pounding, booming, and grinding stereos for the most part from automobiles day and night.
Brain. As said before, you are brilliant. Thank you for these excellent listen and learn opportunities
Memory is like a waterfall that once it's changed flow on a elevated study simile, i can proceed in speaking of few regions in the world where water naturally flows upwards, so try to envision this convoluted example then we would proceed to understanding your question....
PLEASE PLEASE… may I be a test patient??? I have debilitating brain issues. I need help! Among issues, trauma. Both my parents passed away 3 days apart a few months ago. I’ve been searching for someone to look at my brain. Help please
Michael halassa was getting to it speaking on schizophrenia .....he felt strong about the subject that he had to speak on it ...even if it was in spurts
I guess he feels strongly on his views on the topic
This one saying if u understand how to apply it can be life changing neurons that fire together wire together
