Building a Circuit-Diagram for the Brain (Jennifer Raymond, Stanford University)
August 15, 2010 by Memory Improving
Filed under brain memory
Jennifer Raymond (Stanford University) is building a “wiring diagram” for the brain. By bridging the gap between individual synapses and whole-brain learning & memory, Raymond’s research offers new insights and strategies for medical rehabilitation and K-12 education.

SEE YA RELIGION. HELLOOOOOOO MAGIC!!! and im special magic for realising this
If you like these talks, go check out Ted (dot com)
Supposing we were to build a system mimicking biological cognition. What is it with a collection of neurons that allows it to create that “thing” in the back of your eyes? That “thing” that decides whether to scratch and itch, or not. Jellyfish don’t possess this “thing.” Canines, felines and hominids do. Are there videos or academic disciplines attempting to investigate and unravel the secrets of biological cognition? To put all the information to work and actually create a new species of life
theres more red tape, but this keeps us relatively on-track and focused to generalize and collaborate, to be applications-driven while maintaining a theoretical basis for what we’re doing… its a management thing I think
yeah, checking his page out verifies this lol
yes!!! as well as the micro movements of the eye – maybe these variables are feedback sensors which would help make sense of the deep levels of abstract processing? (in the back of the brain)
I wonder if she takes into account the processing that occurs before the optic ganglia? I believe this is a learning system to some extent as well..
So what I’m saying is that American scientists may come up with a lot of cool out-of-the-box stuff, they just run more risk of not getting it published due conflicts of interest.
This is true to some extent, though the cause is different from what you state. I believe the American scientific community is more limited in it’s productivity due to the structure of influence from outside of the scientific community (business, politics). I believe this structure is more limiting than elsewhere..
shes funny, very informative
hypo-campus
merci stanford
xxxmavashixxx: Maybe some Russians are smart, but I doubt you fall into that category.
good lecture
ur a dum fuck
Good lecture, but I always loved and I will love Russian scientists… If to compare the American education and our you are simple ants in comparison with us. Russian always depart from norm and do amazing opening, Americans in this turn do all exclusively under books
sorry for my English, i can write in Russian but you would not understand anything what i say
Can’t do that in Tampa where I live because they recently added traffic cameras that have resulted in thousands of tickets being issued to people for running red lights.
At 06:29, i liked Raymond’s example of how the brain functions when driver encounters yellow light (accelerate!) and how behavior might change if police issue ticket. I just want everyone reading here to know: I go through red lights early in morning when there is no traffic, no pedestrians, and no police. I do have a brain! I will use my brain to access safety and not blindly follow a senseless directing light. I will continue to proceed through red when safe so as not to waste gas!
True health involves using your mind in a positive way to achieve balance, and eating a health diet. Learn how to do this and more. Breakthroughthebarriers
Excellent presentation.
Wow, thanks Stanford for putting these lectures up. I’m enjoying the heck out of these.
THIS REALLY WORKS!!!!
FIRST put both hands on your chest. (boy or girl)
SECOND think of someone you like.
THIRD tomorrow that person will ask you out or say they love you.
FOURTH Heres the catch, write this to five videos
wow
…but who decides to place the brain or body in the position to be modified? It is true that we are at the mercy of forces in the world and in that way are shaped by it, but I must refer to the old adage of being in the right place at the right time to effectively demonstrate the degree to which choice is ours. We have the capacity to place ourselves in different environments and so the capacity to control the input of information. We even have control over the brain’s plasticity in learning.
