The Astonishing Effects of Exercise on Your Brain with Wendy Suzuki, Ph.D.

What changes take place in the brain during and after exercise? How does exercise support deep and focused learning? What are the best physical exercises for your brain? Can you bulk up and sculpt your hippocampus? What’s the connection between exercise and memory? Will there ever be personalized prescriptions for exercise to boost and protect brain health?
Wendy Suzuki is a neuroscientist, professor of neural science and psychology at the Center for Neural Science at New York University, and a member of the Dana Alliance for Brain Initiatives. Her major research interest is brain plasticity, the ability of the brain to physically change in response to the environment. She is best known for her extensive work studying areas in the brain critical for our ability to form and retain new long-term memories. More recently, her research has focused on understanding how aerobic exercise can be used to improve learning, memory, and higher cognitive abilities in humans. She is the author of the book Healthy Brain, Happy Life, which was turned into a PBS special.
This Dana Foundation Neuroscience & Society lecture is part of the Dana Education program, which includes the coordination of Brain Awareness Week in mid-March. The Dana Foundation is dedicated to advancing neuroscience and society by supporting cross-disciplinary intersections such as neuroscience and ethics, law, policy, humanities, and arts.
The Secret Science Club is a science lecture, arts, and performance series, curated by Dorian Devins and Margaret Mittelbach.

I thought it was so cool that she did intensati during a meeting. I even said while I was watching "she's so cool!"

Hello! How is going on?)

[@gustatrillo-paxosGTP]

brilliant video, your BDNF is your angiogen and your neurotransmitter "tickler" and your neurogenesis buff, how far do the levels go up? what transcription factors are involved? lifelong exercise is recommended in U-GO of rainbow system and in the neuroascension path of awakening, I have youtube videos with those tittles, unfortunately I don't have a sect for you to join and no workshops either is all about self-practise...philosophy and neurobiology...

[@sujatharamakrishnan]

U showed effects with video games and exercise...do u have effects on virtual reality games that combine exercise and games?
