Classic Psychedelics: What are they, how do they work?
Professor Robin Carhart-Harris for the Mind, Technology, and Society (MTS) Talk series on April 24, 2023.
This talk takes a multi-level view of
the brain action of classic psychedelic drugs, i.e.,
drugs that share the property of activating the
serotonin 2A receptor. Beginning at the receptor
level, it moves through a developmental and
evolutionary understanding of serotonergic
functioning and brain plasticity, placing
emphasis on the context dependency of
responses to classic psychedelic compounds. It
reviews the dynamic, whole-brain action of
psychedelics and how this relates to knowledge
of the development and evolution of global brain
function and anatomy. It couches our
understanding ...

Arbitrating theories of consciousness and metacognition with adversarial collaborations… and more!
Просмотров 89Год назад
Megan Peters for the Mind, Technology, and Society (MTS) Talk series on May 1, 2023. Abstract: There are a great number of theories about how phenomenal experience arises from neural computations or representations, and a good deal more about how the brain can introspect on itself to monitor ongoing perceptual processes and their uncertainty. How might we go about arbitrating these theories, an...

David L Barack for the Mind, Technology, and Society (MTS) Talk series on April 10, 2023. Abstract: Recent research in cognitive neuroscience has uncovered so-called neural manifolds that play a central role in explanations of behavior. Revealed using a range of dimensionality reduction techniques, these manifolds are entities in low-dimensional spaces contained in high-dimensional neural space...
Consciousness in the Cradle: When does Experience First Emerge?

Tim Bayne for the Mind, Technology and Society (MTS) Talk series on Feb 6, 2023. Abstract: Although each of us was once a baby, infant consciousness remains mysterious, not least because of uncertainty regarding how best to measure consciousness. Accounts of the ontogeny of consciousness can be divided into two broad camps: ‘early-onset’ views, which locate the emergence of consciousness prior ...

Michael Levin talk for the Mind, Technology, and Society (MTS) talk series at UC Merced on January 23, 2023. Abstract: Each of us makes the remarkable journey from the physics and chemistry of a quiescent unfertilized egg to that of a complex human being. How can we understand the continuous processes that scale up minds from the tiny physiological competencies of single cells to the large-scal...

Title: Reconstructing the Study of Human Cognition by Abandoning Cognitive Universalism Abstract: The study of human cognition is a prominent part of psychology and related disciplines. While the modern approach begun during the Cognitive Revolution has been seemingly successful, it is not without its problems . I address five concerns with how human cognition is studied: (1) reliance on homoge...

Talk by Dr. Leilani Battle Title: Behavior-Driven Optimizations for Big Data Exploration Abstract: Before an analyst or organization can leverage their data for effective decision making, they first need to understand it; for example, how the data is structured, what the most relevant data attributes are, and what relationships may exist between these attributes. Systems designed for explorator...

Lecture by Dr. Steven Franconeri Title: Thinking with Data Visualizations, Fast and Slow Abstract: Your visual system evolved and developed to process the scenes, faces, and objects of the natural world. Using that system to process the artificial world of data visualizations is an adaptation that can lead to fast and powerful-or slow and inefficient-visual processing, as we will experience thr...

Dr. Stephan Lewandowsky Title: Resisting the Knowledge Dementors Abstract: We are said to live in a “post-truth” era in which “fake news” has replaced real information, denial has compromised science, and the ontology of knowledge and truth has taken on a relativist element. I argue that to defend evidence-based reasoning and knowledge against those attacks, we must understand the strategies b...

Talk Title: A novel approach to brain and mind - Search for their "common currency" Abstract: Neuroscience and Cognitive sciences made enormous progress over the last 20-30 years in understanding the brain. However, despite all insights, the relation of neuronal and mental activity, i.e., brain-mind relation, remains yet mysterious. Following recent empirical data on consciousness, self, and ps...

Talk Title: Individual differences in syntactic processing: A psycholinguist's "two-disciplines" problem Abstract: There remains little consensus about whether there exist meaningful individual differences in syntactic processing and, if so, what explains them. In this talk, we will describe a study that we completed with our colleagues in which we replicated three major syntactic phenomena in ...

Dr. Lace Padilla Talk Title: Visualizing Our Uncertain World Abstract: We live in an uncertain world. From weather events to financial markets, every day we are confronted with uncertainty. However, even experts have difficulty reasoning with uncertainty. Visualizations allow our visual systems to identify patterns in data that would otherwise go unnoticed. Visualizations can also help us focus...

Great video, it seems like Turning started the wave for a new development of humanity.

Nice research but wrong direction. Single neurons act. Single (pyramidal) neurons have sometimes 10K inputs. They get reduce to a continuous response at the soma. Hence for every space reduction you do, there must be a neuron who does it with its dendrites. You are basically looking at how single neurons compute, by managing a manifold for themselves. Hence this doesn't contradict with the single cell research, this is a differential analysis tool for the single neuron research. The output mapping is how single neurons fire (frequency type etc).all via the soma and proteins on the membrane.
It seems potentially interesting, but I have not understood it.
awesome talk and the topic is so enlightening. Thank youi
Am I the only person who thinks Carolyn Parkinson looks like Lisa Loeb???
Member dogcat??? And the hulk???
Kinematic replication of frog skin cells… I’m a bit surprised that you don’t know why this happens. Did you try it on other tissues? Gut, liver, marrow, vascular? What happens with those cells?
It's not wise to fool with Mother Nature. While I think your work is well intended, it may be impossible at our current understanding of DNA to figure out how to make novel organisms. Plus, evolution is a big lie.
I'll absorb anything Michael says, thank you!
This is the best summation of Michael Levin's absolutely brilliant ideas that I have seen, thank you.
501 views and this showed in my recommended
Cool
Interesting! Would be cool to look at this from a cross-cultural perspective.
Only 705 views in 3 years? Now i know why i'm different from orher people - i really give a s**t about dual n back By the way, i'm at 5-back after 11 days and i must say, I REALLY see many results in every day tasks
I'm glad to hear these two though. Thank you.
Ughhhh. I can't see what she's presenting! Attach a pdf link guys, come on.
Thank you so much for this!
actually we can hear at the sub-angstrom microsecond wavelength - as phase coherence
The question IGNORES the fact that PHASE is the difference that creates the MODES as emotional meaning!! The question IGNORES the fact that the Harmonic series is NOT the same as the chromatic scale due to the what's called the "PHantom Tonic" of the Perfect Fourth that is noncommutative with the Perfect Fifth. that's what creates the emotional change.
The objection based on the harmonic series ignores the fact that the Harmonic series is not the same as equal-tempered tuning based on logarithms since the Perfect Fourth is not from the root tonic of 1 in the harmonic series.
Thanks for posting! Being honest Andy's book is a little tough to walk it through, but this lecture is a kind of a cheat/secret key for it. Finally Prediction processing became much more clear. Thanks!
This presentation by Cailin clearly lays out how industry confuses the public regarding the truth of what is healthy and what isn't. She alludes to but does not touch on psychological impacts on our impressions like confirmation bias. When you add this to the equation it's no wonder how few of us are actually influenced primarily by the body of evidence presented by the academic community on the topic of "health." Great presentation Cailin!
super interesting, thank you.
Awesome job from a different Benjamin Jantzen! I love mathematics but most of this was news to me!
The discussion is beautiful...
wow..this is the first time i'm seeing a profession give a seminar when people are eating
Is there a transcript of this talk available?
