As far as we know, brains are the most highly organized matter in the universe. How they make their magic is just astonishing. How can 100 billion or so neurons, each with 1000 or more connections, work together in an ‘enchanted loom’ of electrical circuits and chemical baths that produce sensations, thoughts and feelings? It is not a miracle.

A true enthusiast. You can see it in his smile and his eyes.
Your talks with Mr. Sheibel are always interesting, clear and thought provoking. He's an individual I feel privileged to hear.
Arnold Scheibel sums it up perfectly: The brain is the most remarkable three-pound object unlike anything in the biosphere, unlike anything in the solar system and so far as we know unique in the galaxy.
Yes indeed. The kidney is a pretty complicated and amazing organ too.
As is the pineal gland
@@thecaretaker407 That's sad. Now you make me feel depressed.
So the brain is the most important thing in the universe… according to the brain?
@Soran999 You coul ask the kidney or the pineal gland and they would probably think they were the most remarkable...if they could talk 😁
Damn man I would have loved to have him as a teacher, he's so well spoken and obviously a world class expert
Wonderful guest. Wish I had him as a professor.
This is mindblowing. Not literally but quite mindblowing.
This was an awesome conversation. Love you guys ❤ It’s great to see you interviewing one of your professors. Beautiful 🤩
OMG first comment! I never did that before 😊 😂
This is the ultimate of all inspiring talks, not theoretical but practical
Great guest.
This guy really knows his stuff. Very interesting video
One of the great interview of this wonderful channel. And what a good teacher! Thanks
Fabulous teacher... if a learner from non- neuroscience background sit to listen he/she would become a fan of neuroscience..
Awareness is known by awareness alone.
Excellent description of the brain. 🙏🏽
There is a high-pitched sound in the video. Must have been certain radio interference or smth. Still a very interesting conversation! Thanks a lot!
Reducing the brain to genetic makeup and what the world imposes upon us in a way reduces what we can even call truth and beleive it, so I wonder if it would be a good idea to have different fields of knowledge respond to this? Like philsophy, theology, physicist etc. Love this this show has so many great minds to utilise.
Very interesting! Thanks.
Thank you for sharing this information
Lovely video, he's a great educator.
Genes, Dreams and Love ... very cool.
If Dr. Scheibel told me he was Vincent Prices' little brother, I'd believe him.
😂😂😂
A decent discussion and understanding done by the professor Scheibel.
Basic and not very exact, but not too far from the real processes taking place in the biological brain.
The first experience with the close medium from "outside" of a proto-organic cell on Earth was the chemical interaction.
In those first primordial organic interactions of the back eons the chemical that damages anything from the functional "integrity" of the proto-organic cell it plugged the channel of interaction, therefore naturally blocking it. This simple fundamental and very important chemical effect has been "employed" naturally ever since to today in one form or another.
Etc.
The second was the sensorial tactile interaction, the third the sensorial smell, the fourth the proto-vision function, and after these first ones the rest of them.
Etc.
I know what Robert is looking for; so, again, I repeat, and I repeat it especially for the participants here ( I have written about it many times in the past ): in order to create full Artificial Consciousness ( AC ) you don't have to follow the "complicated" and convoluted way the nature has done it in billions of years on Earth by natural evolution ( so, you don't have to understand exactly in the finest detail how the real biological brain works, because many steps of it's natural functional dynamic are just redundant ).
You can do it very quickly in one day ( or a few hours, or even less if you have EVERYTHING at hand and you KNOW EXACTLY what you have to do 😏 ) by creating the main fundamental little web of limited few functions with which the REQUIRED information is circled and re-circled in a very specific way in a relatively closed system as, for example, an ordinary everyday computer ( it is fast enough, don't worry! ). 😉
I don't talk here about Artificial Intelligence ( AI ), but about full Artificial Consciousness ( AC )!
Good luck!✌️🙂
Excellent discussion : )
I call it Super Monkey Brain (SMB). The score is still out on whether it has any value for long term species survival or it's a short-circuit to extinction.
I want to wrestle with the totality of information
What I find most interesting is that our brain is how we interpret the world so I wonder how other species experience the world. Our brains are also relatively early in the evolutionary process so I wonder how much more advanced alien brains might be or how different they might be if they took a different evolutionary path.
@@saigopala He literally says that in the video.
@@saigopalaonly in the sense that technically all knowledge is conjecture. The theory that brains interpret information is rational, tested and predictive and has had useful medical consequences. That makes it the best theory we have and the only one that has produced any useful results.
@@saigopala that’s where we disagree, the evidence from those people is absolutely terrible by scientific standards. It doesn’t come anywhere close to the expected criteria. No self respecting scientific journal would accept it, not because they have any bias, but because they have consistent standards they apply to all evidence.
Those guys get away with it when publishing to a general audience because most people don’t understand what the criteria for scientific evidence are or how evidence is tested and evaluated.
@@saigopala Just because a journal says it’s peer reviewed doesn’t make it credible. Radin does work for “the journal of science and healing” that specialises in “alternative medicine”. It’s been criticised in legitimate medical publications as being a “fake journal” and as a “sham masquerading as a real scientific journal”. Some of its papers include studies of how “distant intention” affects water crystal formation. I’m sorry, but if you think this is a serious science journal, you’re being deceived. This is how pseudoscience operates. It mimics the forms of real scientific research without implementing its substance.
Isaac and Rebecca. Subconscious and conscious.
whole...another whole...meaningful whole...
Hmmm??? Can brains be a mini universe? Isn’t there a massively amount of extra dimensions we can think up in the mind ?
The Brain is the Black Hole we exist in -- the Universe.
LIGHT enters through the eyes -- the photons are sucked into the Black Hole.
Outside is the Event Horizon.
This interesting clip was recorded 16 years ago. But why the deception?
2:53 ... originally the brain stem itself was teh total nervous system and this grew out of what call the invertebrate schema ... edible or dangerous or sexually interesting. 4:02
It is beautiful. (E_alg = algorithm with emergent properties) - (structure & information & E_alg) create (2nd_structure) within which new information is gathered and processed based on the E_alg, in order to adapt, and grow the structure to gather more/new information. A system is created (A system of networks that work on the base of that complex E_alg). At the base of that structure/system is the (Main system with the Main information and the E_alg that *works it all). And then the systems grow every time new information is added (in order to be able to process said new information [new tools being needed] ) and create new system and so on............(This shouldt be a short format, easy to digest. It is not possible. Think of it like being the first Atom in the creation of letter "A").
Awesome guy and educator.
Typical of how though they befuddle themselves with the numbers. Large numbers like dendrite connections can be deceptive because it makes us overlook certain basic principles. BTW many connections also suppress neuronal acitvity as well as activate. The neuronal networks are performing a function bigger than each individual unit much the same as muscle cells combine or synchronize to form muscles and complex muscle networks. The movement of the outside of our body reflects the neuronal activity inside our body. Just look at how the motor cortex and somatasensory cortex are right in the center of our brain and mirror one another. A front to back symmetry which mimics lateral bicameral motor symmetry.
i'm sickened but curious
Graduate school at 19?
Lol! This man's description of the rat's brain compared to human brain is rude yet very sweet to hear.
This guy reminds me of Miracle Max
Brain is structured with the dual brain potential + brain realized.
I love when scientists and doctors dehumanize people.
Here there are more question than answers. For instance he principle show billions cell in brains. But how billions cell he shows in neuroscience proceedings? If he shows it in neuros prooceeding he is right. If not he brains hipotesy need more true prooceeding. Impossible control billions cells in brain?
He looks like Sid Caesar.
Plants are alive where are their brains? I think we have a quaint notion, that may be preventing us from studying the actual brain.
Well, animals have brains, so maybe they are more unique than we are.
Someone got thousands of views on TH-cam.
Lol, is there a need to be holding that brain?
Imagine if after setting it down he immediately grabbed a sandwich n took a bite
@@0ptimal 🤣. If I was Robert sitting right in front of him I'd pray he didn't touch me 😂
The human brain is structured in a way to accomodate a free immortal lost soul for a chance to hopefully make a choice to believe in our loving Creator for salvation.
How did you come to that conclusion?
@@stickmanmasters It is my understanding of the light that I received that I believe was shared to me because of my strong faith.
RIGHT Side of the Brain ~=~ GOD
LEFT Side of the Brain ~=~ The SELF
X-Files
Metaphysical Hierarchy
Mystic (vision)
Magical (harmony)
Musical (language of music)
Artistic (pictures/metaphors)
Poetic (words)
Numerical (we are here)
Mystics create the most joy (smart).
Accountants create the least joy (ignorant).
Ever notice that beings who speak in the language of music can create joy that energizes thousands of beings to celebrate and dance?
Ever notice that corpses who speak with brain numbing, soul sucking numbers do the exact opposite?
Sanction, starve, torture, murder and bomb (wheeeeee)! Ignorance (hate) is bliss for vampires (greed). But not much fun for the humans who they are sucking the joy out of.
The hostile evangelcal vampires (greed) are inhumane because they are not human. The counting corpses commit crimes against humanity because they are not human.
The hostile evangelical vampires (greed) are blind and cannit see the ignorance of transformong heaven (peace) into hell (war). The counting corpses are also blind and cannot see the ignorance of destroying the planet.
The anti-love, anti-christ called Counting Dracula (Trump) and his crew of evangelical vampires (greed) are extremely "desperate" to control a darkship called the Whitehouse.
Because working in the dark to suck the joy out of life and destroy the planet is the only way that the loveless, lifeless parasites can survive and thrive.
It's also how the hostile alien invaders keep their human capital (cattle) coralled.
Unlke earthling poets, artists, musicians, mystics, human beings and creators of joy...the counting corpses that rule US can't create harmony (real intelligence) because vampires (greed) are far worse than stupid.
The liveless, lifeless parasites are ignorant (dead).
Vampires (greed) who suck the joy out of life have joined the zombies who eat the futures of their children.
Zombie Apocalypse is here and happening now.
Question. Why are the evangelical counting corpses using the bible as a springboard to perform sonersaults to do the exact opposite of "treat others like they want to be treated"?
Answer. This is sick. Because this simple concept is too far out there to grasp for vampires and zombies.
Lead into gold
Tears into roses
Weapons into ploughshares
Or at least weapons into pianos, paint brushes and joy creating stuff like that.
Darkness (business) exists so that stars (light and warmth) have a place to shine in heaven (joy, beauty and harmony).
Stars like US don't exist to be sucked out of heaven by a giant black hole in space called "greed" and its ignorance (hate).
Also, Love spent billions of years creating this paradise planet lifeboat so that her miraculous works of fine art called "life"have a beautiful place to "be".
Good (god) didn"t spend so much time creating this paradise planet lifeboat to be depreciated, polluted and destroyed in a brief moment by hostile alien monsters and their ignorance (hate).
Sense of smell started in the brain. Did I hear right?
