So, I am taking a break from my college studies with Stanford class. Boy ,oh boy ,if my high school teacher saw me.. it is so much more fun to learn and study when no one is forcing you to do it. It's all for you. Rock on, my virtual classmates :')
Sometimes I stop and recognize just how much I'm retaining from these lectures and think that I could make it as a Stanford student. Then I realize that it's really how skilled he is an instructor that he can even make a person with no background in science can understand.
Thanks to youtube I can do things I would never imagine doing years ago: cleaning my room while listening to a lecture by a highly respected university professor.
Good thing im not a student in his class as i would be asking a plethora of questions..questions that would possibly leave him stumped lol. It would be a grave mistake for this teacher or any biologist to assume no new answers r out there and that theyv figured it al out. I would be asking the tough questions that they would have no answers for..furthermore theres other possibilities in what he explains that arent really expanded on...makes me wonder do they select what theory to teach based on theyr beliefs bcz im sure biology is always subject to change....its change non stop over the years constantly addopting new theories..why cant these theories also be wrong? Not saying theyr wrong just saying i dont take these theories as Scripture as no man has total understanding of everything..we make mistakes daily were far from a state of all knowing lol
@@tonyboycurtis Well, if you watch the whole video series, he takes a number of different theories from the past and present and looks at how they explain behaviour, but also what some of the critiques of those theories is. So I don't think this is about beliefs, but rather, it's about looking critically at an issue in a number of ways. This is one of the ways he teaches his students to keep an open mind and not just accept something as gospel. If you have a theory that you think fits better, by all means, test it experimentally, publish the result and show all the other theories wrong. That's how we tend to do most science. I'm curious what kind of questions you'd be asking him that would leave him "stumped". If they would be questions about biology and behaviour, it would surprise me if they did in fact leave him stumped, seeing as he is someone that has studied biology all his life and behavioural biology especially is his domain of expertise. On the other hand, they could also be questions of the moral, philosophical or religious kind. If that would be the case, I'd be quite interested to hear them, since I always find those topics interesting to talk about.
This is pure gold. Every little bit is enlightening. But also, how great would it be to see him give the same lectures in 2021, including all the new research results of the last 10 years.
As he explains how the basics function, this stuff is still relevant today and most certainly not outdated. If you get into details and more specific stuff, then yes, there would be a lot of nuance, but then you need to get into specific papers and books. He is actually building a foundation in this course for his students (or you) to do so.
Watching this series of lectures, one thing I can't help but notice is how tame the students are. No irrelevant questions, nobody trying to look smart, no drawn-out chats. They are smart, and it shows.
This series is a prime example of what the Internet should be used for. Only concern I have is whether or not the material has aged well/ is still scientifically correct or relevant
I took an animal behavior class last year while finishing my undergrad in environmental bio. A lot of the material was very similar to what was covered so far in this series, so I'd say yes
@@anmolsingh6607 UK panel shows. Mock the week, Would I Lie to You, Taskmaster, 8 out of 10 cats does countdown etc. Best way to waste your youth on RUclips.

Im a musician and im 5 episofes/lectures in and this is crazy interesting and with no background in biology , I am able to follow this . incredible stuff
"If you are a sort of a modern molecular person, at some point or other you will have to sacrifise the goat at the altar of Barbara McClintock." These statements are immortal.
I am so blown away by Sapolsky. His ability to keep the lecture flowing and intriguing really makes me eager to continue listening. I am only on 5 and I bought one of his books to support, as well as, learn even more. Thank you!
Class A driver here. I've been binging these lectures and absorbing so much. This man is such a master teacher that he's teaching a trucker. Much love.
I have had the joy of hearing Dr. Sapolsky give a talk in person: he's as erudite, funny, and personable as anyone can possibly be! Including in a half hour of Q&A, during which his answers were as fluent and detailed as if they had been prepared ahead of time. This man is amazing!
This is a message to my future self. You are a Uni graduate and you are jobless, but you still try to learn new stuff and skills, it is your own way of dealing with your major depression. I am proud of you and you have a great future ahead of you. Keep it up.
this message is for my future self, I see that you're binge watching these lectures again, hope that you have a great day ahead. Today is Dec. 05, 2020 (Saturday). It's fun to learn stuffs so I'm proud of you for doing so 🥺
@@philiphellzen7319 Because human attention and memory are fallible. Re-watching can potentially better imprint information to your memory and reveal new understandings that were missed before.

What an amazing teacher.. 10 years later I am able to watch this and educate myself with no related background whatsoever. Thank you Stanford and Professor Sapolsky! I really appreciate this.
I'm enjoying these lectures, I'm learning a great deal, and kudos to Stanford for making them free. But....geeze....it's been 30 years since college...my brain HURTS. Never let your brain get flabby, folks!
@@05afnanabdullah87 And you are correct, surreal it is. And it's a bit hard for me to wrap my head around the idea that my 'introduction' to Sapolsky was 7 years ago!
I am far away from from molecular genetics as one only can be. Nevertheless, this guy is delivering his lectures in so damned interesting way, that I can't stop watching it. Thanks a lot to Stanford!!!
Maybe i don't see what i don't understand but they don't seem much difficult. But I'm at the 5mins break so maybe it gets more intense in the last 30 minutes. The guy explains it so well that I get everything on the first take (I'm French).
Yeah I'm rewatching them right now, but I realise that the second one of these two is actually really easy. I don't actually think those lectures are hard to understand, but I have roughly no background in stuff like protides and others, so I struggled when he spoke about that sort of thing. I'll go learn on the subject because it's very interesting
I really like how you summarise stuff- about the previous lecture or before moving to the next topic, about the prev topic if it had many sub-parts. Really helps in getting the big picture view and not to get lost in details.
I finally lost my old religious way of thinking after this. I see so differently now, my "tolerance for ambiguity" shot up. I don't see the world so black and white anymore. Not enlighhtened but humble.
@@NoName-lm1do - Shut up, we should welcome people like David into the world of science with open arms. You're not going to convince many other people to take a more rational view on the world by insulting or belittling them. Glad to have you in our camp David. :)
This information is brilliant, makes me want to go back to school for that same level of discovery I'm getting from these videos, but heck, here it is! Thanks Stanford for letting knowledge be free.
The Sleeper Must Awaken Jordan Peterson does not have even a tenth of the insight this guy has. Peterson is glued into his own bucket, and seems to think he has understood everything about human psychology... nothing more to know.
I've listened to the man for 9 hours today and he tells it all so well and keeps it interesting. He's the Bob Ross of biology. I've definitly leared a few new things today.
The moment, when you start seeing lectures as a kind of entertainment-> Change the way you see "the World even more different". I love his lectures thx for giving us access, i am very gratefull
The only reason I hated school and college is that my parents forced me to do it, and pressured me into a medical program that was in a country I didn’t want to be in. I dropped out and later got an MBA and I deliberately went into business to avoid the high pressure of the sciences. That was over 15 years ago and life takes many twists and turns and I’m glad to have healed from that experience along the way. Today I’m rediscovering my nerdy love for biology and the natural sciences here on RUclips. Thank you professor and thank you Stanford. Please keep making these available.
Him: *mentions vasopressin Me: oh yeah, the antidiuretic hormone, I know all about that stuff... Him: ...it has to do with social behavior... Me: ... .... What the...?
lol i was bamboozled in the just same way until I recognized that both ADH and oxytocin are synthesized from the posterior pituitary, most probably with a very similar biochemical/molecular structure which to some extent may explain their interchangable effects on receptors? I dont know
@@hilalarslan5888 you are right that the chemical structure of oxytocin and vosopressins are very similar. They differ only by a few amino acids. Both are located on the same chromosome. But they are made in the paraventricular and supraoptic nuclei of the hypothalamus, and secreted and stored in the posterior pituitary
For all the worst shitty things the Internet does now, I'm so glad there still is this sort of things too. I didn't finished my biology university years, went strait down to depression and shitty jobs to more depression and slightly better shitty jobs to complete burnout. Eh, life... About 10 years later, today, after all those struggles. I find myself still competent enough to understand everything. Be captivated by this awesome course. Gives me just a bit of hope. Just a bit of hope and confidence that I still can. That I'll find my way. This sort of gift has no price.
It’s seriously affecting my concentration. I actually stopped the video to go look at the comments to see if I was the only one being triggered by the coughing.
They'll be calling the generation that's 21 or about to be 21 Generation Covid, and Millenials will wind up writing snarky articles about how Gen Vidders are so traumatized by growing up during a global pandemic that they don't know how to stay focused at work and should stop eating TikTok on toast if they want to afford a house in the soon-to-come housing economic crisis, mark my fucking words.
Ten years after this classes were recorded, I only want to know where I may find the readings of it. Please if someone have it, or knows the names, let me know!
Wow these lectures are awesome. I got to learn so many things from this. He cleared so many confusing things. His teaching style is so good that I have become addicted to these lectures.
I just want to express my heartfelt appreciation for providing these amazing lectures for free! As someone who comes from a business background and currently works as a data analyst, I never expected to fall in love with this topic. These lectures have been an absolute delight to watch, and they have sparked a newfound passion in me. I can't thank you enough for making these valuable resources accessible online.

I love watching these videos. Around 45:00 I learned something new! And it really explains why I was diagnosed with Grave's Disease after the birth of my daughter. Although I think I had symptoms of it long before I was ever pregnant...
prof. Sapolsky may be incorrect in teaching that the second position in groupings of 3 amino acids in DNA coding sequences can often be changed (a SNP) without adverse consequence. All other courses I have encountered teach that this true of third position. What a brain! What a course! Remarkable!
This series is great! I dont even study anything close to Biology but its sutch an interesting Series of Videos, i can't stop watching! Pleas stanford, release more videos like these!
So interesting to hear about copy number variants as having almost a shadow pair that can be rebellious and experiment away, with the sibling being sensible and keeping the lights turned on. His explanations are so original and interesting.

I have watched all his videos. They are indeed genius . at late night I use his lectures to fall asleep now . It really works fellow insomniacs . Listen to the same lecture to fall asleep faster.
I've read tons of the comments, and I thought it was weird to want to be this guy's son or dad, I'd be proud either way, and It doesn't seem so unusual anymore.
I love these lectures. My mom had lupus and she was told not to have anymore children before she got preggers with me. Because of the medication she was on I have had a lot of medical issues.
@@ashbrady588 Why are you so bold as to assume that? I wouldn't want my mum to suffer, feel guilty or have to give up as much time as many invest in disabled children, if she was to decide to adopt a disabled child that too would be fortunate without risking her health or my older siblings further care. Not all Teens think about suicide but most who do come across the burden their live will have been to someone until then and some can't take comfort in assuming their remaining lives will be more independent.
Two years later from your comment, I wonder about what the questions were on the midterm, and also on the final? Would I pass it after all the lectures? I have a BA in Anthropology...though it's been years since I was in college.
You are an awesome professor!! Love your teaching style. Thanks for sharing this with us, who would never had a chance to listen to you speak. Since hearing the first few parts, I have purchased and read most of your books. Also thank you Stanford university for sharing the lectures!!
Thanks Robert. You made me love my mother (long gone) tenfold by learning about the suppression of the immune system during pregnancy and the related problems. Now I can appreciate why our ancestors took special care on pregnant ladies.
I believe this is a picture of the domesticated foxes he mentions in the latter part of the lecture (he does use the adjective "piebald" which describes this fox) - www.petpooskiddoo.com/wp-content/uploads/2017/03/wild-vs-domesticated-fox.jpg
I like the way you periodically recap progress so far in a way that helps cement in context awareness. Consciousness has a lot of zooming in and zooming out. The zoom out part is the index, the frame of reference. All should be indexed to the Gestalt ground;, zoomed out as far as possible, churning in the background of awareness, guiding Tab A into Slot A. We'd be saner for it.
It is not well established that Glucocorticoids are anti-inflammatory (the 42:40 mark in the video or so). There are some contexts in which glucocorticoids actually increase inflammation, specifically in the central nervous system. For a review of these context, read: Sorrells, S. F., Caso, J. R., Munhoz, C. D., & Sapolsky, R. M. (2009). The stressed CNS: when glucocorticoids aggravate inflammation. Neuron, 64(1), 33-39. Interestingly, Sapolsky is an author!
Crh is highly inflammatory. It becomes a problem when you're cortisol resistant as a result of chronic stress/inflammation(cytokines initiate the stress response).
So, I am taking a break from my college studies with Stanford class. Boy ,oh boy ,if my high school teacher saw me.. it is so much more fun to learn and study when no one is forcing you to do it. It's all for you. Rock on, my virtual classmates :')

i didnt imagine to stay this long for a series of lectures in RUclips. Lecture. is captivating. So much to learn
The part with the jumping genes and the random splicing made my hearth work excessively from scientific excitement.
I envy you.

I just want to express my heartfelt appreciation for providing these amazing lectures for free! As someone who comes from a business background and currently works as a data analyst, I never expected to fall in love with this topic. These lectures have been an absolute delight to watch, and they have sparked a newfound passion in me. I can't thank you enough for making these valuable resources accessible online. By any chance, would it be possible to also access the course booklet and session notes? It would be fantastic to have those additional materials to dive even deeper into this fascinating subject. Once again, a huge thank you for sharing these educational gems with us!"
Thanks to Professor Sapolsky and Stanford University
Binch watching all the lectures
Really. You couldn't pan the camera up. Really?

necessary to obtain signed permission of ALL the students

Marcia J. Bossy Nobody wants to see the students. Dafuq's wrong with you? Pan up so we could the video...see below, and thanks to Taniwha_NZ
He's asking about the fox pictures referenced at 1:07:00
How ridiculous! You don't need signed permission form students to pan up to a screen on the wall showing a photo of foxes!
It looks like the camera could be on some kind of motion tracker
I started watching these lecutres because I'm dating a biologist but now I'm actually really interested!
I love watching these videos. Around 45:00 I learned something new! And it really explains why I was diagnosed with Grave's Disease after the birth of my daughter. Although I think I had symptoms of it long before I was ever pregnant...
Imagine you could answer your kids questions about the world and nature on this basis instead of giving some fake answer. What a time to be alive
What a 'Lovely' man Robert seems to be! I really like intelligent people but I think being kind is better! In this good fair man we have both!
bro I just wanted to listen to something while playing minecraft
Legendary set of lectures by a wizard level professor...
How can one guy be so smart...? He doesn't even sip water...
Water is key
How is such amazing information on youtube??? Im in heaven right now! Thii is an amazing [blessing?] At any rate, im endlessly grateful 😃
REALLY appreciate the mini-review of the previous lecture at the start of the class.
This series got me so hooked. Fantastic,
He works very hard to keep his audience aware, and awake.
This is far away the best thing on the web.
His lectures are Gold. I am amazed how he delivers so complex topics in a manner that I don't want to lose my attention even for a minute
I would totally watch a Barbara McClintock musical.
kokijavier kintero
Or movie! I can’t believe we don’t have a movie about her life.
Ok I’ll bite, let’s crowd source the title, “Amaizing Barbara”?
@@ashbrady588 call it Cornfields :)
I totally agree with you. :)
I'm Swedish and love his pace and style including his Blah Blahs.
Is there a way we can see the tattoo, that the professor mentioned at the beginning of the class?
"Trypanosomes also worship at the altar of Barbarra Mcclintok".
Wow this video is incredible.
This guy is born to educate.
prof. Sapolsky may be incorrect in teaching that the second position in groupings of 3 amino acids in DNA coding sequences can often be changed (a SNP) without adverse consequence. All other courses I have encountered teach that this true of third position. What a brain! What a course! Remarkable!
Watching this in 2021 during COVID pandemic and having a mini freak out every time someone coughs.
Biology professors are the rock stars of the Universities
I feel like watching a gazillion of these lectures a gazillion times... totally cool!
I have read the chaos book it’s ok. The lectures are like a waterfall of knowledge
This series is great! I dont even study anything close to Biology but its sutch an interesting Series of Videos, i can't stop watching!
Pleas stanford, release more videos like these!
So interesting to hear about copy number variants as having almost a shadow pair that can be rebellious and experiment away, with the sibling being sensible and keeping the lights turned on. His explanations are so original and interesting.
If I had professors like this, I would be a rocket scientist now.
I'm an MD. IMHO this is an incredible lecture
voici l'image du renard que nous n'avons pu voir lors de son exposé.

That's exatly what I was looking for, thanks! ^^
Merci! Ça, c'est l'image du renard sauvage. Le renard apprivoisé peut être vu ici: enacademic.com/dic.nsf/enwiki/981789
Thanks! That was a photo of the wild fox. The tame one can be seen here: enacademic.com/dic.nsf/enwiki/981789
I have watched all his videos. They are indeed genius . at late night I use his lectures to fall asleep now . It really works fellow insomniacs . Listen to the same lecture to fall asleep faster.
I've read tons of the comments, and I thought it was weird to want to be this guy's son or dad, I'd be proud either way, and It doesn't seem so unusual anymore.
I love these lectures. My mom had lupus and she was told not to have anymore children before she got preggers with me. Because of the medication she was on I have had a lot of medical issues.
But, on balance, I suspect you’re pretty glad she had you :)

Why are you so bold as to assume that? I wouldn't want my mum to suffer, feel guilty or have to give up as much time as many invest in disabled children, if she was to decide to adopt a disabled child that too would be fortunate without risking her health or my older siblings further care.
Not all Teens think about suicide but most who do come across the burden their live will have been to someone until then and some can't take comfort in assuming their remaining lives will be more independent.
one word. LIFE CHANGING.
"What day is it?" This guy is a real scientist
This hits different since covid
watching this in 2017 on youtube, i'm still wondering about the midterm
Two years later from your comment, I wonder about what the questions were on the midterm, and also on the final? Would I pass it after all the lectures? I have a BA in Anthropology...though it's been years since I was in college.
2020, same here...
You are an awesome professor!! Love your teaching style. Thanks for sharing this with us, who would never had a chance to listen to you speak. Since hearing the first few parts, I have purchased and read most of your books. Also thank you Stanford university for sharing the lectures!!
Thanks Robert. You made me love my mother (long gone) tenfold by learning about the suppression of the immune system during pregnancy and the related problems. Now I can appreciate why our ancestors took special care on pregnant ladies.
"tameable siberian silver fox" on google images ;)
thank you, this was really helpful comment...
not falling for that again!
How cool can this guy be?
thanks Stanford and RUclips
I believe this is a picture of the domesticated foxes he mentions in the latter part of the lecture (he does use the adjective "piebald" which describes this fox) - www.petpooskiddoo.com/wp-content/uploads/2017/03/wild-vs-domesticated-fox.jpg
here in 2022 and how this series is so enlightening and entertaining!
I learned that my mother never knew her biological father. THIS IS WHAT SPARKED MY INTEREST IN HERITABLE BIOOGY.
I like the way you periodically recap progress so far in a way that helps cement in context awareness. Consciousness has a lot of zooming in and zooming out. The zoom out part is the index, the frame of reference. All should be indexed to the Gestalt ground;, zoomed out as far as possible, churning in the background of awareness, guiding Tab A into Slot A. We'd be saner for it.
I absolutely love how he uses the word 'there'
Sapolsky please don’t die until we get a copy of your genes
thank you so much for this lectures Professor Sapolsky
This lecture is so tasty that I'd like to eat it!
Why would you do that to your baby?
;-;
It is not well established that Glucocorticoids are anti-inflammatory (the 42:40 mark in the video or so). There are some contexts in which glucocorticoids actually increase inflammation, specifically in the central nervous system. For a review of these context, read:
Sorrells, S. F., Caso, J. R., Munhoz, C. D., & Sapolsky, R. M. (2009). The stressed CNS: when glucocorticoids aggravate inflammation. Neuron, 64(1), 33-39.
Interestingly, Sapolsky is an author!
Nick Nichiporuk Ok, but what he sez it that they suppress immunity.
Crh is highly inflammatory. It becomes a problem when you're cortisol resistant as a result of chronic stress/inflammation(cytokines initiate the stress response).
