I like how they managed to split their lecture not in the normal 50-50 way, but in a more smooth and elegant way. Everyone who ever had a public talk knows how much it's difficult to make things seems soft and smooth. Both instructors are passionate and good each in their own way. Thank you Stanford!
19:39 Thymus releases several hormones especially during puberty which are important in the maturation and maintenance of our immune system. These are: Thymosin, Thymopoietin, Thymic humoral factor, Thymostimulin, Factor thymic serum.
Bill and Ted's excellent endocrinology lecture! Jokes aside this was very well done, I like the excited, engaging presentation style. It made the points resonate well and was memorable - which I can't say for many other lectures I've been to. Thanks!
LOL, I speak Bill and Ted since mid 80s... I didn't even notice. LOL. Its how I talk. People think I ain't smart because of my language sometimes, but most people who know me say I'm the smartest dude they ever met, and I've been to Carnegie Mellon.
i'm a 52 year old farmer on the canadian prairie and i'm watching these lectures out of interest and curiosity. my educational background is in engineering. absolutely thrilled to be alive in the information age
The start for cholesterol synthesis is the formation of AcetoAcetyl-CoA that will be condensed with another Acetyl-CoA to form HMG-CoA, and there will be a series of condensation reactions between 2 isoprenic chemicals untill the formation of squalene, when it gets oxidated and then there's a cascade of reactions that will finally form cholesterol.
First time I actually went through all the lecture and took lots of notes altho there's a lot of complications regarding the brain activity behind the scenes but I got a gd grasp on the general operation of hormones and how they can effect behavioral and developmental activity, both of the instructors were did a great job in covering this lecture it was fun to learn from them and thank u so much for providing these lectures online I have learned a generous amount of knowledge from it ❤️
I get the feeling they might be calling on something like coaches or comedians or theatrical instructors, where there tends to be an approach of excessive stimulation to keep people's attention. Personally, I find it confusing and distracting in almost any setting, but especially one where it feels out of place, like a highly informative setting. (That's how it feels to me, that is. Some people are bound to get more out of it than me.) That being said, yeah, there's absolutely no need to be rude, either, even if it's relatively light and jokey by RUclips comment standards. Like the TA's before, learning to teach is a process, and I know for a fact that if I were in their shoes, it would take me a good while before I could do as well as any of them did. I don't think I could ever do as well as Dr. Sapolsky, though. He seems to really understand the relationship of planning, wording, prepared and in the moment delivery, and how important they all are in getting information to something of an "end point" in the listeners' brains.
@@Skelloween The trouble is that their style works against their objective. Compare with Sapolsky's smooth and expert savoir-teaching. He is a pro, those guys are fumbling beginners. Don't forget that under age 25 their pre-frontal cortex is far from being fully formed. They have plenty of time to learn the polish.
there is nothing wrong with this guy he just excited , this is the interaction between genes and environment this is the way he talk ...Thanks a lot Stanford for this lectures im an electrical engineer but I learned a lot about my self and people
So I just want to say at the outset that I’m really enjoying this course, and the MOOCs that some of the best universities in the world are uploading at their, at thier own expense with no real gain for their institutions (well, I think you could argue it does wonders for their credibility and reputation internationally). However, as a british postgrad anatomist/human biologist, I’m stunned at the general lack of knowledge of the cohort at Stanford. Everythign decsribed in the non-Sapolsky lectures is something we had to study, compulsory, at the age of 15-16 in order to take advanced classes in any subject we want at college (which is not university). From hypothalamus, ACh, endocrine, autocrine, paracrine ... it was ALL taught in a mandatory set of science examination as part of GCSEs. To be told “don’t worry about this jargon” to undergraduates doing a biology themed course at Stanford - not a bad uni at all - is quite remarkable. Odd.
well, consider that this course from what I remember was made for non bio students, or did not have any prerequisites. I had almost no prior knowdledge of the subject before, so giving us only bare minimmum gives a way to better understand, as opposed to getting very technical. were it too complicated I would not have been able to cope with this. anyway, I feel like I understand more now, can be more cool if I approach a girl studying medicine and be more cool at parties. other than that I think i can understand behaviour better and hopefully can make more sensible choices. this rant is getting longer than expected.
These are not advanced classes. In the UK you study a subject in university. In the U.S university takes an extra year but you take subjects that are not just in your field of study. Many of these people will not have taken biology in years. Also making something accessible or telling people not to worry does not indicate a lack of knowledge, but having a problem with that does indicate a prejudice against non-specialists learning in "your" field.
McFadden is a lot easier to understand because his voice emphasizes higher frequencies. So he has a crisp vocal presence and I don't struggle for understand what he said. Maybe I just need new speakers.
It’s probably the recording environment and the acoustics of the room. Lower frequencies have more hearable resonant overtones and so when you have multiple low voices playing at once or a big low voice echoing against itself you get sound wave interference - it sounds muddy and can lose precision. That’s why the melody in most music is in the higher register and why when bass singers have the melody they tend to sing softly or close to the microphone.
I appreciate the energy, but they're making philic/phobic seem necessarily difficult. These terms were introduced to us in 10th grade high school organic chem... not sure why TAs think this will "make people's brains hurt" at Stanford....?!
These are people from a decade ago, knowledge percolates. We know much more distilled knowledge from our schooling than (most likely) the undergrad first years here. And they might also be liberal arts people with 0 advanced STEM schooling - this is free first year course after all.
Exactly. I mean, every public speaker has their period of desensitization to the audience. He’s clearly in the middle of his. He’s *in the process* of becoming more comfortable speaking publicly. I do hope that this information was provided in a book for the students though.
i've done taught for about a decade and a half in Japan. you can get used to it's actually much harder to quit teaching. Desensitization is a very good way to put getting used to public speaking in front of strangers. it's the most rewarding job to be under paid for. You can take the teacher out of the classroom. but you can't take the teacher out of person. Imagine giving a public speech to a classroom of pumpkins, not a classroom of the great pumpkins…that would be terribly nerve wracking. just plain old non-roudy pumpkins though i believe teacher's in Japan Imagine their students as ebi kaocha/small green shrimp pumpkins living life in peace. woo-hoo-oo-oo. i think i owe Mr. Lennon an apology. Aqua sea foam shame. Sorry about that one, Kurt. Sorry. The lecture was good. i learned a lot in a short time. Good job.
Very true. They both show their total lack of experience in communicating to an audience about subjects that are addressed to their frontal cortex and not just their limbic system, as Tom-the-rapper does, who thinks this should be a show for a youth concert.
Tom was the one, who did the synaptic-cleft rap shown two episodes earlier. He later started a science-rap channel on youtube: ruclips.net/video/sPK6NENnJ6M/видео.html
I don't understand the hate. Yes, tom was a bit overdoing it, but the metaphors they used really further the understanding of the topic, at least for me.
Only foolish man modifies. God created everything perfect. You don't build a foundation, strike it with lightening, and wait a few billion years. Well, unless you're an idiot.
ONE thing this lecture overlooks and that is how the communication is restricted or increased. SALT in the system which creates the environment for electrical conductivity necessary to communicate even the most subtle messages. Pure trace minerals are a critical part of endocrinology and the metabolic function. PURE UNPROCESSED SALT is key for metabolic communication. Salt is also the mule which carries trace minerals and drugs throughout your body and if empty or in the pure form may also be used to remove bio accumulative toxins and drugs from the body and brain. No one reads the ingredient list on the salt box. Well you should; you may discover salt that is processed is poison and toxic to your brain and entire metabolic cycle. A small subject but critical.
Sodium chloride is not toxic. It's your body's main source of both sodium and chlorine- two elements your body MUST have. Besides "unprocessed" salt would not be anything close to pure sodium...
I think they're referring to "Why zebras don't get ulcers" written by Robert Sapolsky himself. There's a website for the course with links to all the relevant readings and textbooks. www.robertsapolskyrocks.com/reading-materials.html
About 10 minutes in, Peterson mentions that all peptide hormones deriving from tyrosine. But when I looked it up on the wikipedia, the only amino acid with an indole group is tryptophan. What am I not getting? Awesome series, even in spite of (possible) slipups like this. Thank you so much, Stanford!
@@karandeepsingh1656I believe he may have been referring to that the very important Catecholamines (such as Epinepherin, Norepinephrine and Dopamine) are Tyrosine derivatives. Of these 3, Epinephrin is the only substance acting as a hormone - while the two others act within the nervous system.
At around 28.00 minutes there was a question from a student. I have an ancillary question, which will be hopefully answered. It was explained that Vasopressin and Oxytocin were stored in the vesicles near axon terminal. Is this mechanism the same across the hormones, that they are produced on an ongoing basis and are stored, to be released at an appropriate signal? If the production is on an ongoing basis, just as in sperms and semen, then the overflow of those hormones would they not need to be discharged?
When I was 14, my bio teacher taught "hypotonic" and "hypertonic" backwards. US education is pretty inconsistent among states, where math and science are concerned.
Indian kids' education is more advanced than that of average Americans of the same age. That is why they end up managing many of the advanced-technology companies in the US.
impressive, you almost managed to understand what happened that minute. He drilled away on the chemistry concepts of electron negativity/positivity and how there are overlapping concepts that are used based on which angle you use; ie hydrophobic/lipophyllic etc. It was about the jargon, not the idea of oil and water.
This is the most important point about, not just this lecture, but all of them, the 25 of them. For some perverse reason, this "whoever recorded these" never got it. And in this case, it's not just the face, but the arms, like a drummer in a band. Yes, rapping may be a better outlet for their energy. Or doing an early 10-mile run before coming to the lecture.
Can Robert please narrate this endocrine session. The TA keeps interrupting the lesson to add tiny puns and passive aggression. It really messes with my ADD. So I completely lose focus on the lesson. I am very interested in the endocrine system. I really value these lessons and NEED a different narrator to pass endocrine knowledge
Why's that guy so loud? Reminds me of my days in the army. Like, chill dude, no need for so much aggression. He's really lost me there. Poor delivery imo.
"There is Male or Female and I have no idea why they drew one person with both ovaries and testes" ~paraphrased, but bless his heart. Biology at that level and he still doesn't know intersex bodies exist and are useful for diagrams?XD
Cholesterol can be manufactured from stress. From the arc of this series, it seems to be an important piece of information. When educators state "think like this don't think about that" is a setup for misunderstanding.
Stating, ask questions, and then stating don't worry about the information the questioner asks about, and stating don't worry about vocabulary is counterproductive. People ask questions for clarification, they do need to be conscientious, and people do need to know the meaning of words as they help facilitate understanding.
@@katherenewedic8076 "and people do need to know the meaning of words as they help facilitate understanding." One of the most vital truths of the age. Aristotle would have approved. Should stand as a frontispiece at the start of each lecture.
@ToonLiger He drew an indole group, and afaik (I am a biologist who works as a teacher) only tryptophan has that. Knowledge about the structure of the approx. 20 amino acids that go into making proteins has been around for at least 20 years (which is when I learned about it)! Since my knowledge disagreed with the stuff presented, I was hoping someone would explain it to me. Without appealing to authority ("it is so coz someone from Stanford said so!").. :)
I like how they managed to split their lecture not in the normal 50-50 way, but in a more smooth and elegant way. Everyone who ever had a public talk knows how much it's difficult to make things seems soft and smooth. Both instructors are passionate and good each in their own way. Thank you Stanford!

How cool is Paul Revere niggas...he must have felt this huge rush...hormones charges have never been the same~
...Mr. Duracell bunny scares me a bit... I feel like he's gonna look into the camera and address me directly by calling my name...
why on this video did they integrate the slides with the video and not on any of the others?
Probably an after thought
A mystifying neglect - when the goal is to teach - not of the in-class lectures, but of nearly all the videos in this series.
One of the TAs forgot to turn on his mic
Can Robert please narrate this endocrine session.
The TA keeps interrupting the lesson to add tiny puns and passive aggression. It really messes with my ADD. So I completely lose focus on the lesson.
I am very interested in the endocrine system. I really value these lessons and NEED a different narrator to pass endocrine knowledge
The Paul Revere Quote was “The Regulars are coming out!”
How is this free?
is this part of a course for non--"natural" science majors?
Psych
Why's that guy so loud? Reminds me of my days in the army. Like, chill dude, no need for so much aggression. He's really lost me there. Poor delivery imo.
The classroom is quite big and there are a lot of people. He was actually being kind to the people sitting at the back.
Shouty Shouterson is a bit much. Hope he's improved his delivery style since then.
Russel Sapolsky?
21:15 this entire next minute is absurd 🤣🤣🤣
Why?
even grotesque. Imagine Sapolsky delivering this rant passing as education? Unthinkable.
"There is Male or Female and I have no idea why they drew one person with both ovaries and testes" ~paraphrased, but bless his heart. Biology at that level and he still doesn't know intersex bodies exist and are useful for diagrams?XD
I don't think he's sharing his coke supply with nobody!
Delivery of information is difficult to follow
Cholesterol can be manufactured from stress. From the arc of this series, it seems to be an important piece of information. When educators state "think like this don't think about that" is a setup for misunderstanding.
Stating, ask questions, and then stating don't worry about the information the questioner asks about, and stating don't worry about vocabulary is counterproductive. People ask questions for clarification, they do need to be conscientious, and people do need to know the meaning of words as they help facilitate understanding.
@@katherenewedic8076 "and people do need to know the meaning of words as they help facilitate understanding." One of the most vital truths of the age. Aristotle would have approved. Should stand as a frontispiece at the start of each lecture.
@ToonLiger He drew an indole group, and afaik (I am a biologist who works as a teacher) only tryptophan has that. Knowledge about the structure of the approx. 20 amino acids that go into making proteins has been around for at least 20 years (which is when I learned about it)!
Since my knowledge disagreed with the stuff presented, I was hoping someone would explain it to me. Without appealing to authority ("it is so coz someone from Stanford said so!").. :)
