Although their brains continue to produce those storms and code for movements, they cannot cross a barrier that was created by a lesion on the spinal cord.

So this is a beautiful image of a visual interneuron from a mouse that came from Jeff Lichtman's lab, and you can see the wonderful images of brains that he showed in his talk.

So these basic concepts of multitasking in time and multitasking in space, I think these are things that are true in our brains as well, but I think the insects are the true masters of this.

We take our children, we make them shut their brains down, and then we say, "Perform."

But in humans, we continue to grow our brains.

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.

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

We can live in a world where our brains, the things that we know, continue to be the thing that makes us special, or a world in which we've outsourced all of that to evil supercomputers from the future like Watson.

But our brains are wired for a linear world.

We didn't know what was happening in those young brains.

So you have teeth, bones with blood which look like blood, you have hair, and you have intact carcasses or heads which still have brains in them.

Now I'm interested in dolphins because of their large brains and what they might be doing with all that brainpower in the wild.

Our brains are still active even when we're not.

However, there are devices today that can read the electrical activity from our brains.

I think of us humans as "Life 2.0" because we can learn, which we in nerdy, geek speak, might think of as installing new software into our brains, like languages and job skills.

So stressed their brains hijack the stress response system, flooding the body with fight-flight-or-freeze chemicals.

Since we don't know how our brains do it, we're not in a position, so far, to build a conscious machine.

Now, the theory of mirror neurons simply says that in your brains, exactly now, as you watch me doing this, you are activating exactly the same neurons as if you do the actions.

And don't think about the brains of these robots or how carefully we program them, but rather look at their bodies.

We are so, so, so accepting of any body part breaking down other than our brains.

It's 2018, and someone, or lots of people, are using the same mechanism that, like, Facebook and Instagram are using to get you to keep checking that app, and they're using it on YouTube to hack the brains of very small children in return for advertising revenue.

And by studying hallucinations, we stand to learn a great deal about how our brains construct the world we see, hear, smell, and touch.

It has shrunk because our instruments enable us in part to measure smaller and smaller units of time, and this in turn has given us a more granular understanding of the material world, and this granular understanding has generated reams of data that our brains can no longer comprehend and for which we need more and more complicated computers.

When I became interested in these questions about 10 years ago, scientists thought they knew what different brains were made of.

Though it was based on very little evidence, many scientists thought that all mammalian brains, including the human brain, were made in the same way, with a number of neurons that was always proportional to the size of the brain.

This means that two brains of the same size, like these two, with a respectable 400 grams, should have similar numbers of neurons.

Now, if neurons are the functional information processing units of the brain, then the owners of these two brains should have similar cognitive abilities.

So this is a first indication that the "all brains are made the same way" scenario is not quite right.

If all brains were made the same way and you were to compare animals with brains of different sizes, larger brains should always have more neurons than smaller brains, and the larger the brain, the more cognitively able its owner should be.
