What happens here is that the brain activity that generated the movements in the monkey was transmitted to Japan and made this robot walk while footage of this walking was sent back to Duke, so that the monkey could see the legs of this robot walking in front of her.

So she could be rewarded, not by what her body was doing but for every correct step of the robot on the other side of the planet controlled by her brain activity.

This is CB1 fulfilling its dream in Japan under the control of the brain activity of a primate.

The entire project cost about 1.6 billion dollars, Trinidad and Tobago dollars, and in fact, we had a lot of bid-rigging and suspicious activity, corrupt activity took place.

Moreover, once we can do that, we can actually activate specific neurons or we can destroy or inhibit the activity of those neurons.

So in this way, by doing this kind of test, we can draw cause and effect relationships between the activity of specific neurons in particular circuits and particular behaviors, something that is extremely difficult, if not impossible, to do right now in humans.

That could be a phenomenal, valuable activity.

So what you see here is a subtraction of areas in which there's more brain activity when you're playing people compared to playing the computer.

And you see activity in some regions we've seen today, medial prefrontal cortex, dorsomedial, however, up here, ventromedial prefrontal cortex, anterior cingulate, an area that's involved in lots of types of conflict resolution, like if you're playing "Simon Says," and also the right and left temporoparietal junction.

The bottom players, you see all the activity in dorsomedial PFC.

you might be able to look at brain activity and say, "This person's going to be a good poker player," or, "This person's socially naive," and we might also be able to study things like development of adolescent brains once we have an idea of where this circuitry exists.

I'm saving you some brain activity, because you don't need to use your hair detector cells.

Remember that we scanned both brains at the same time, so we can ask about time-synced activity in similar or different areas simultaneously, just like if you wanted to study a conversation and you were scanning two people talking to each other and you'd expect common activity in language regions when they're actually kind of listening and communicating.

That is, it looks as if the uninformed brain activity is happening first, and then it's followed by activity in the informed brain.

That means that the brains are synced up more closely in terms of simultaneous activity, and the arrows flow clearly from left to right.

And then later there's activity in the uninformed brain.

So in this case, we are suppressing the activity of abnormal neurons.

So we wondered, can we place electrodes in this area of sadness and see if we can turn down the thermostat, can we turn down the activity, and what will be the consequence of that?

We're going to place electrodes within the circuits that regulate your memory and cognitive function to see if we can turn up their activity.

We can graduate the activity of those circuits.

The implications of this, of course, is that we may be able to modify the symptoms of the disease, but I haven't told you but there's also some evidence that we might be able to help the repair of damaged areas of the brain using electricity, and this is something for the future, to see if, indeed, we not only change the activity but also some of the reparative functions of the brain can be harvested.

Everybody was really excited about Curiosity, and that had this big plutonium battery on board that has plutonium-238, which actually has a higher specific activity than the low-enriched uranium fuel of these molten salt reactors, which means that the effects would be negligible, because you launch it cold, and when it gets into space is where you actually activate this reactor.

This is the most important thing, when we imagine that we need water for every activity in life.

You can be engaged in the activity of something, but not really be achieving it, like dieting.

I'd like to talk to you today about a whole new way to think about sexual activity and sexuality education, by comparison.

If you talk to someone today in America about sexual activity, you'll find pretty soon you're not just talking about sexual activity.

Because baseball is the dominant cultural metaphor that Americans use to think about and talk about sexual activity, and we know that because there's all this language in English that seems to be talking about baseball but that's really talking about sexual activity.

You can strike out, which means you don't get to have any sexual activity.

Let's take baseball and pizza and compare it when talking about three aspects of sexual activity: the trigger for sexual activity, what happens during sexual activity, and the expected outcome of sexual activity.

Okay, so when you're playing baseball, so if we talk about during sexual activity, when you're playing baseball, you're just supposed to round the bases in the proper order one at a time.
