00:00:00 - 01:00:00

This video lectures on the basics of neuroscience, focusing on the perception of the world. Karl Gegenfurtner discusses how specific proteins are synthesized, and how this information is encoded within the genetic code. He then goes on to discuss how environmental factors can influence the activity of certain genes, and how this can lead to complex diseases.

  • 00:00:00 Karl Gegenfurtner discusses the neuronal foundations of perception in this video, which covers topics such as the biological origins of the brain, the function of the brain, and the anatomy of the nervous system. He later describes the physiology and anatomy of neurons, explaining how they are responsible for our thoughts and emotions.
  • 00:05:00 This video covers the basic principles of neuroscience, focusing on the role of the nervous system. Karl Gegenfurtner discusses the peripheral nervous system, which includes special nerve cells located outside of the brain. The lecture also covers the sympathetic and parasympathetic nervous systems, which have different roles in the body. The last section of the talk discusses the role of the brain and spinal cord in movement.
  • 00:10:00 This video is about the structures of the brain and their functions. It covers the basic neuroscience principles of perception, including the role of the brain's nerve cells (neurons) and their connections. It also covers the importance of the cerebellum and the corpus callosum, which are important for movement and communication. Finally, the video discusses the function of the hippocampus, which is important for memory and navigation.
  • 00:15:00 This lecture discusses the foundations of neuroscience, focusing on the perception of stimuli. Karl Gegenfurtner discusses the important role of individual thirteens in the activation and focus of attention, and how these areas are essential for the control of attention. Other Kerngebiete discussed include the peri aqueductal system, which plays a role in the perception of pain, and the substantia nigra, which is important for the control of movement and emotion. Finally, the lecture discusses the role of the brain's "zwischenhirn" in the coordination of multiple systems.
  • 00:20:00 This video discusses the neurological foundations of perception, focusing on Karl Gegenfurtner's theory that the human brain has six "jurys" (or "suppen") that help process and interpret sensory information. These jurors are located in different areas of the brain and play a role in various cognitive processes, including emotion, thought, and movement.
  • 00:25:00 The video discusses the origins of human intelligence, focusing on the development of the brain in the third month after conception and the importance of the frontal lobe. It also discusses the development of specific brain regions in the teenage years and adulthood, and the importance of comparing human brains to those of other species.
  • 00:30:00 Karl Gegenfurtner discusses the evolution of the human brain, highlighting the role of the cortex in cognition and its relative size compared to other mammalian brains. He also discusses the development of the nervous system and its various stages, culminating in the emergence of Homo sapiens some 500 million years ago. The advantages of a protective brain environment for early Homo sapiens led to the evolution of säugetiers with improved mobility and feeding abilities, culminating in the emergence of Homo sapiens as the dominant species on Earth.
  • 00:35:00 In this video, Karl Gegenfurtner discusses the origins of the human brain and its evolution. He points out that humans and chimpanzees share a lot of similarities in their evolutionary history, and that the first humans probably originated around six million years ago. He also mentions the Australopithecus genus of early humans, which were physically similar to modern chimpanzees. Over the course of the next few million years, the evolution of our brains and other bodily features diverged significantly. Gegenfurtner says that the most recent phase of human evolution, Homo sapiens, began around 200,000 years ago. He discusses the development of culture and art, and notes that the size and shape of our brains has remained relatively stable throughout our evolution.
  • 00:40:00 This lecture discusses the origins and development of the brain, how different species have evolved over time, and how culture has played a role in human evolution. The professor discusses how human brains are different from those of other animals, and how the size and complexity of the human brain is determined by the amount of food energy a species can obtain. The professor also suggests that human brains have evolved to be better at processing and utilizing information, and that this ability is partly due to the fact that human ancestors had a different digestive system.
  • 00:45:00 This video discusses the origins of the brain and its functions. It covers the topic of brain anatomy and physiology, and how these mechanisms are present in all animals. The conclusion is that these mechanisms have been present in humans for a long time, and are an evolutionary old phenomenon.
  • 00:50:00 In this video, Karl Gegenfurtner discusses the basics of neuroscience, focusing on the formation of input and output signals. This information is necessary for understanding the neural mechanisms behind perception and movement. He also discusses the brain's ability to calculate and generate movement based on simple building blocks, and how this process is facilitated by nerve cells with specific functions. Finally, Karl explains how synapses, which are the connections between neurons, are able to be dynamically flexible, allowing for a great deal of information and action to be processed without loss of speed or efficiency.
  • 00:55:00 This video lectures on the basics of neuroscience, focusing on the perception of the world. Karl Gegenfurtner discusses how specific proteins are synthesized, and how this information is encoded within the genetic code. He then goes on to discuss how environmental factors can influence the activity of certain genes, and how this can lead to complex diseases. If not for scientists working in the fields of marine biology and fisheries, understanding how genes impact disease might not have been possible at all.

01:00:00 - 01:20:00

In this YouTube video, Karl Gegenfurtner gives a lecture on the basics of neuroscience, focusing on perception. He discusses the role of neurons and their communication, noting that there are a certain number of neurons in the brain, but they are not all activated at the same time. He also discusses the role of synapses in information processing, and how they are relatively simple structures. Finally, he discusses the importance of synapse formation in the transmission of information.

  • 01:00:00 In this lecture, Karl Gegenfurtner discusses the effects of potassium and sodium ions on regions of the body and how a particular type of ion, the diffusion-limited ion, seeks to spread itself out evenly within and outside of cells. The equation for determining when equilibrium is reached for these ions is also discussed.
  • 01:05:00 Karl Gegenfurtner discusses the aktionspotenzial, which is a measure of the amount of tension that a neuron can generate. This tension is caused by a combination of the negative and positive ions that are present in the neuron's cells. When the aktionspotenzial is high, the neuron's cells are more likely to open up and allow more ions in. This can lead to a sense of action or excitement.
  • 01:10:00 Karl Gegenfurtner discusses the importance of synapse formation and how it leads to the transmission of information. He also discusses how this process can be sped up through the use of chemical "transmitters."
  • 01:15:00 In this video, Karl Gegenfurtner discusses the basics of neuroscience, focusing on the role of neurons and their communication. He points out that, while there are a certain number of neurons in the brain, they are not allactivated at the same time, and that the neurons in a particular region of the brain are specialized for handling certain types of visual input. Finally, he discusses the role of synapses in information processing, noting that they are relatively simple structures and that a neuron only binds to around three percent of its surrounding cells.
  • 01:20:00 This YouTube video is a lecture by Karl Gegenfurtner on the foundations of neuroscience, focusing on the subject of perception. The lecture is a summary of the subject matter, and is not a full-length course.
