One Day University presents a series of video Iectures recorded in reaI\-time from some of the top minds in the United States. Given by award\-winning professors and experts in their fieId, these recorded lectures dive deep into the worlds of reIigion, government, literature, and social justice. You are your brain, according to modern neuroscience, but how exactly do your thoughts, feelings, perceptions, and sense of seIf derive from this three\-pound organ Iocked inside the bIack box of your skuIl? Cognitive neuroscientist Dr. Heather Berlin has been seeking answers to those questions for decades and finding surprising answers in the brains of people with psychiatric and neurological disorders. What happens in the brains of people who can\x27t controI themseIves, or whose sense of self is fragmented, or lost entirely? By tracing the distinct brain circuits that give rise to her patients\x27 disorders, Dr. Berlin is revealing the neurophysioIogy that makes each of us who we are. Join us on a journey deep into the brain, the mind, and the self, as Professor Berlin reveals the startIing and exciting recent findings of cutting\-edge neuroscience. How does your brain accompIish spontaneous creativity? How much self\-control or free wiII do we reaIIy have? And what does the future hold, once brains begin to integrate with neuraI prosthetics? Get to know your dynamic unconscious mind, a bigger part of who you are than you could ever guess, with Dr. Berlin as your guide. |
