So wouldn't it be amazing if our phones could see the world in the same way that we do, as we're walking around being able to point a phone at anything, and then have it actually recognize images and objects like the human brain, and then be able to pull in information from an almost infinite library of knowledge and experiences and ideas.
And what's great about this is the technology's actually allowing the phone to start to see and understand much like how the human
brain
does.
I got the feeling that my
brain
wanted to basically see it come back to life.
It's about how our

The other comes from an interesting aspect of human memory that's related to various
brain
functions but I can sum up for the sake of brevity here in a simple line: The
brain
abhors a vacuum.
Under the best of observation conditions, the absolute best, we only detect, encode and store in our brains bits and pieces of the entire experience in front of us, and they're stored in different parts of the
brain.
Below awareness, with no requirement for any kind of motivated processing, the
brain
fills in information that was not there, not originally stored, from inference, from speculation, from sources of information that came to you, as the observer, after the observation.
You know, we're not mice, and you can't go into a living person with an illness and just pull out a few
brain
cells or cardiac cells and then start fooling around in a lab to test for, you know, a promising drug.
It has massively parallel processing capability, and it's going to change the way drugs are discovered, we hope, and I think eventually what's going to happen is that we're going to want to re-screen drugs, on arrays like this, that already exist, all of the drugs that currently exist, and in the future, you're going to be taking drugs and treatments that have been tested for side effects on all of the relevant cells, on
brain
cells and heart cells and liver cells.
Fifteen years ago, it was widely assumed that the vast majority of
brain
development takes place in the first few years of life.
Back then, 15 years ago, we didn't have the ability to look inside the living human
brain
and track development across the lifespan.
In the past decade or so, mainly due to advances in
brain
imaging technology such as magnetic resonance imaging, or MRI, neuroscientists have started to look inside the living human
brain
of all ages, and to track changes in
brain
structure and
brain
function, so we use structural MRI if you'd like to take a snapshot, a photograph, at really high resolution of the inside of the living human brain, and we can ask questions like, how much gray matter does the
brain
contain, and how does that change with age?
And we also use functional MRI, called fMRI, to take a video, a movie, of
brain
activity when participants are taking part in some kind of task like thinking or feeling or perceiving something.
So many labs around the world are involved in this kind of research, and we now have a really rich and detailed picture of how the living human
brain
develops, and this picture has radically changed the way we think about human
brain
development by revealing that it's not all over in early childhood, and instead, the
brain
continues to develop right throughout adolescence and into the '20s and '30s.
One of the
brain
regions that changes most dramatically during adolescence is called prefrontal cortex.
So this is a model of the human brain, and this is prefrontal cortex, right at the front.
