Nature, nurture & neuroplasticity | Anthony Hannan | TEDxNorthernSydneyInstitute

In his talk, Professor Hannan will let us in on why doing neuroscience in the 21st century is like physics was at the start of the 20th century. There are three revolutions going on right now in biology and medicine that make neuroscience one of the last great frontiers:
 Neuroplasticity
 Genomics
 Epigenetics
Understanding the role of these three factors in brain development and function will open the door to new and more effective treatments of diseases such as Alzheimer’s, mental illness and addiction.
Professor Anthony Hannan is head of the Neural Plasticity Laboratory, Florey Institute of Neuroscience and Mental Health at the University of Melbourne. He is also currently an NHMRC Senior Research Fellow, and has received awards for his research, including the British Council Eureka Prize (fitting) and the Federation of European Biochemical Societies Anniversary Prize.
This talk was given at a TEDx event using the TED conference format but independently organized by a local community. Learn more at ted.com/tedx

I had a brain hemorrhage two years ago and I have been able to exceed medical expectations. I attribute my progress to my deep understanding of how to effectively connect new neural networks and train neural plasticity

[@montanaproductions5559]

Congratulations that is an amazing achievement and discipline. What are some exercises that you use?

Excellent talk - so glad we are understanding the power of our minds/brain and that we can do something within ourselves.. today we still need to start all of this more in our schools when repetition is familiar at a young learning age. Learning more on this subject can only benefit us more and push us to allowing change and realising what changes we can make especially in our thoughts and behaviours. thanks you.

Yes, had a severe stroke over 4.5 years ago and had a 99% recovery. 3 months ago I had another stroke which has left me 100% OK. I have to say that I`m extremely grateful to my own body! Maybe somehow our bodies are curing themselves . Don`t try this at home...the chances of surviving two hemorrhagic strokes are vanishingly small.

Use somatic therapy. You need to train your nervous system.
