I'm a postdoc biophysicist working on detection of blood biomarkers for stroke and heart disease. Videos like this one are super helpful for expanding my general knowledge about neuro biology and associated processes. Thank you
How did I not know about this channel?!...WAIT! Your adviser is Nicola Allen?! Sooo cool...I interviewed for a job at your guys' lab over at the Salk Institute about a year ago. Keep up the great work.
Hey! Great videos, keep it up! Could you do one about stutters? Haven't come across much info about the neuroscience behind them and it would be interesting to know more.
Great idea! We'll have to do some research and see if there's any research on it so far. The only thing I can recall reading about the "science" of stutters is from a terrible study done in the 1930's, where a psychologist tried to find out if negative reinforcement could induce stutters in children who didn't have them. It turns out that it can't - but it does make kids super self-conscious and seriously damages their self-esteem. The "study" was so unethical that it's since been dubbed the "Monster Study" because of how awful it was!
Haha, thanks for that! We figured out the issue as well. We shouldn't have any more green flashes going forward. :)

@@neurotransmissions just found your channel the other day and already susbcribed! i was worried about those green flashes (glad you figured it out) good content, keep going u are great
Just found you today and subscribed too. My current thesis project has a huge role played by astrocytes and I would love to reach out to the team and learn more on the ways by which these curious cells interact and alter the fates of other brain cells. DO let me know how/where I can contact you guys. Cheers!
Is there any place we could find your research papers? I would be glad to read your work. I would appreciate getting some of your publications. Thanks.
Have you heard of STDP? AFAIK it doesn't model astrocytes yet. Maybe computation of neural networks could be made more efficient if it included the biophysical action of astrocytes.
Yeah, that's definitely something that researchers are starting to think about! It's a lot easier to design models that don't account for astrocytes...but now that we've found out about how much they do, it's becoming clear that they should be accounted for!
Very informative and well presented man, i dono if this is my computer or in the vid but, i keep getting like a werid screen flash? anyways cheers for the vid
Great video. I am however continously amazed at the jargon, semantics, and overall stubbornness of science that makes it difficult and confusing to students or novel scientists, especially in biological science. I'm guessing scientists once made a claim that astrocytes do no not communicate with electrical signals, as was stated in this video. But, the fact remains that they do! Even this video acknowledges that they do through calcium waves. Calcium waves are every bit as much an electrical signal as any other traveling down the axons of neurons, because it is the traveling of signal via a propagation of charged particles, initiated and continued as a result of fluctuating polarization. In otherwords, a calcium wave is still the traveling of charge, that is electric current. Therefore, It's still 100% an electrical signal.
Hi,i love your videos! i have been strugglin to find resources on calcium signalling; do you happen to know where i can find more details on the machism of calcium waves? thanks very much!
Research shows Mold Toxicity called 'Aflatoxins' has a great impact on brain cells such as 'Astrocytes' and brain chemicals. Do you have any research on the effects of Mold Toxicity on the brain?
Great video only problem is my question in relation to a quick search before using Google went unfounded. What are astrocytes comprised aka "made" up of in terms of their atomic cellular structure. Are they more carbon, or hydrogen, or nitrogen structures etc?
@@neurotransmissions wow! Master of all trades! Look like I need to improve my creative skills before I start teaching science! Do you have a team? Or do you solo everything?
Anybody else noticed the green blinks in the video , don't worry you have been channeled directly into the brain neuron connections with these , but don't worry XD
Hey there! It sort of depends on what you are most interested in knowing more about. I'm (Alie) biased, but anything coming out of the Barres lab is pretty solid. I also just wrote a review with a colleague that highlights the roles of astrocytes at the synapse and how astrocyte dysfunction has been implicated in a lot of different diseases and disorders. It's behind a paywall, but you can shoot us an email at alie.astrocyte(at)gmail(dot)com if you'd like to check it out!
I’m taking a cellular neurobiology class right now and we’re talked about astrocytes in depth! Maybe if you take upper level classes they’ll go over it!
Iam actually India b pharm 1 year student I see ur video I understand ur videos but I don't tak English how can write exam please any advice for me 🥺🥺🥺🥺🥺🥺🥺🥺🥺🥺🥺🥺🥺🥺🥺🥺🥺🥺🥺🥺🥺🥺🔝

That's so awesome! We're glad that you like it - happy to help out, and pumped to hear that you find it helpful. Good luck with your research!
It's been 5 years. How has your work gone?
I had 1 question and the video literally explained everything i needed to know 🙏🙏❤❤
Congratulations on making such excellent, informative, easy to understand videos on a topic that's normally not so!
Thank you! And thanks for watching!
Such a thorough explanation and helpful video! Agree with other commenters, you deserve more views
That's so nice of you to say! Thank you!

No waaaayyyy! Small world! Sorry we didn't have the chance to meet! Thanks for your kind words. :)
This is AWESOME! I've just fallen in love with astrocytes too.
Thanks for this video! Simple format but with really good information. Seems like a great channel. Subscribed!
This video was awesome on all kinds of levels. Thank you!
I am an arabic girl and I watch your vidios they are completely clear although I speak arabic and a litte bit english
I'm so happy I found this channel. WoW!!!!!! Make more neuroglia videos :)
This is amazing and we still don’t know how they fully work. Cool!
Fantastic video, so epic to know your advisor was Dr.Nicola Allen

really good videos! you explain a complicated subject in a an accessible way.
Thanks for the nice feedback!
Why are there frames which flash solid green? e.g. at 04:47
It's a secret code! Just kidding. It's a dumb artifact from the rendering process. We're still not sure why it happens sometimes!
At first I thought it might be some secret subliminal conditioning making me want to thumbs up your video. Did it anyway :)
Haha, thanks for that! We figured out the issue as well. We shouldn't have any more green flashes going forward. :)

It looks like they caught onto it a while ago: journals.plos.org/plosone/article?id=10.1371/journal.pone.0019109
Oh, neat! Thank you for sharing the article!
Are you still active ? Any cross reactivity with the Gad65 or Tg6 antibodies ?
Very informative and well presented man, i dono if this is my computer or in the vid but, i keep getting like a werid screen flash? anyways cheers for the vid
Interesting.
What is the relation between
Astrocytes / Calcium and ME/CFS, please?
Skin is glowing btw 😍
Nice video allie. What is used for the animations? The video looks really professional :)
And I learnt stuff too! I'm always grateful for that. Thank you.
Nice to know.
Awesome video!

so cool !!!
Astrocytes are basically the uber eats or milkmen of the nervous system ! Alie Astrocyte for the win! - DW,05.21.2019
Very nice Video

Which camera you are using??

It’s perfect thank youuuu

Thanks .
Is it a coincidence that your surname is "Astrocyte"? Best name EVER!!!
You're doing great!
Your rubicks cube makes me laugh. Nice joke/detail ;)
Perfect!
Who does your animations? I'm wanting to start creating science videos!
We do them ourselves using After Effects!
@@neurotransmissions wow! Master of all trades! Look like I need to improve my creative skills before I start teaching science!
Do you have a team? Or do you solo everything?
Amazing neuroscientist
Wow Its amazing....... 😯😯😯
What's the deal with the single green frames?
I wonder if Calcium Channel blockers, make a difference in brain patterns.
Anybody else noticed the green blinks in the video , don't worry you have been channeled directly into the brain neuron connections with these , but don't worry XD
Wow great .please make a video on how can we gain super memory and processing power of brain. Just find you today after a long time?
Wow
Any particular research/publications you'd suggest following and/or taking a look at?

Thumps up Astrocytes *
WOW WOW WOW WOW why dont they teach us this in college ?
That's what we've been asking!
I’m taking a cellular neurobiology class right now and we’re talked about astrocytes in depth! Maybe if you take upper level classes they’ll go over it!
what's with the glitchy green screen vids?
So how can we improve the astrocytes like Einstein?
My new middle name from now on is ASTROCYTE
Alie Astrocyte. Damn it. Why don't I have such a cool name
just watching these to see if she ever finishes that rubik's cube. no spoilers!
epilecptic warning: 2.06 - 2.17 and 4.36 - 4.59
What food has these two proteins more? I want to cook for my kids, schizophrenic.
This is pretty interesting ! and im really happy to figure out that those astrocytes can be created hhh
Iam actually India b pharm 1 year student I see ur video I understand ur videos but I don't tak English how can write exam please any advice for me 🥺🥺🥺🥺🥺🥺🥺🥺🥺🥺🥺🥺🥺🥺🥺🥺🥺🥺🥺🥺🥺🥺🔝
Fantstically explained
screen started flashing green on 2:11 lol wtf
so what we get by this is that we dont know much about glia cells.
Dude if you liked them you wouldn’t need to read cards lmao
Epilepsy warning
stein didnt have no extra shit...he talk about things that was already recorded..just like columbus found land that was already discovered
O
Cut the wooshing sound effects pls :D
do you know these kind of persons with annoyingly high pitch voice?
Do not use wikipedia as your source, don't even show it in the description.
