Иван Пигарев. Загадка сна


Основная загадка сна состоит в том, что в результате его лишения наступают множественные патологические изменения во всех внутренних органах организма за исключением головного мозга. В то же время наиболее яркие и интенсивно исследуемые изменения при переходе от бодрствования ко сну наблюдаются именно в работе коры головного мозга. Факты, открывшиеся в ходе экспериментального исследования этого вопроса, меняют устоявшиеся представления, как о назначении сна, так и о положении коры больших полушарий в иерархии структур мозга.

After anorexia: Lifes too short to weigh your cornflakes | Catherine Pawley | TEDxLeamingtonSpa


Diagnosed with anorexia nervosa in early 2012 Catherine battled the illness throughout her ‘A’ levels and the first year of her degree which resulted in her taking two gap years to get specialist treatment as an inpatient Eating Disorders Unit. Catherine reveals a deeply honest account into her road to recovery which will hopefully inspire others.

Catherine is a chemistry student at the University of Warwick, a photography enthusiast and a self-confessed perfectionist. While growing up in Leicestershire, Catherine was diagnosed with anorexia nervosa in early 2012 and battled the illness throughout her ‘A’ levels and the first year of her degree. This resulted in her taking two gap years to get specialist treatment as an inpatient at an Eating Disorders Unit.

Catherine has just completed her second year at university, and has not relapsed. She is busy enjoying student life and everything it entails, before entering the world of work when she graduates next year.

Quand un mentaliste fausse nos prises de décision | Rémi Larrousse | TEDxVaugirardRoad


Quand un mentaliste nous demande de faire un choix, il nous demande de prendre une décision. Il lève ici un coin du voile sur la manière dont il influence notre décision en utilisant les pièges de la pensée.

Diplômé de Sciences Po Paris, Rémi

Larrousse mène une double carrière de

consultant en entreprise et de mentaliste.

Reconnu comme un innovateur dans

ce domaine, il a reçu le Mandrake d’Or

récompensant les meilleurs artistes

illusionnistes. Passionné par la distorsion

de la perception et les automatismes de

pensée, il utilise l’illusionnisme et le mentalisme comme outil de communication et de formation.

Designing Your Life | Bill Burnett | TEDxStanford


Executive director of Stanford’s design program at the d.School, Bill Burnett uses design thinking, a career’s worth of starting companies and coaching students, and a childhood spent drawing cars and airplanes under his Grandmother’s sewing machine to inform his work on how to design your life. In five eyebrow-raising findings, Burnett offers simple but life-changing advice on designing the life you want, whether you are contemplating college or retirement.

After years of drawing cars and airplanes under his Grandmother’s sewing machine, Bill Burnett went to college where he discovered that there were people in the world who did this kind of thing every day (without the sewing machine), and they were called designers. Thirty years, five companies, and a couple thousand students later, Burnett is still drawing and building things, teaching others how to do the same, and quietly enjoying the fact that no one has discovered that he is having too much fun. As Executive Director of the Design Program at Stanford, he runs undergraduate and graduate programs in design, both interdepartmental programs between the mechanical engineering and art departments. Burnett worked on design of the award-winning Apple PowerBooks and the original Hasbro Star Wars action figures. He holds a number of mechanical and design patents.

Health lies in healthy circadian habits | Satchin Panda | TEDxBeaconStreet


Every organ and even every cell in our body has circadian or 24 h clock. Circadian clocks turn on and off thousands of genes at the right time of the day or night. These rhythms work together to maintain healthy balance of brain chemicals, hormones, and nutrients. When our rhythms break down we are more likely to suffer from a wide range of diseases from depression to cancer. We can tune our daily habits of eating, sleeping or getting the right amount of light to sustain our circadian rhythms. Healthy rhythms nurture healthy body and healthy mind. Dr. Satchidananda Panda, a professor at the Salk Institute for Biological Studies in La Jolla, California. Satchin’s work deals specifically with the timing of food and it’s relationship with our biological clocks governed by circadian rhythm and also the circadian rhythm in general.

Professor Panda explores the genes, molecules and cells that keep the whole body on the same circadian clock. A section of the hypothalamus called the suprachiasmatic nucleus (SCN) lies at the center of the body’s master clock and gets input directly from light sensors in the eyes, keeping the rest of the body on schedule. Panda discovered how these light sensors work, as well as how cellular timekeepers in other parts of the body function. He also uncovered a novel blue light sensor in the retina that measures ambient light level and sets the time to go to sleep and wake up every day.

In the process of exploring how the liver’s daily cycles work, Panda found that mice which eat within a set amount of time (12 hours) resulted in slimmer, healthier mice than those who ate the same number of calories in a larger window of time, showing that when one eats may be as important as what one eats. If the benefits of this “12-hour diet” hold true in humans, it could have profound impacts on treating overeating disorders, diabetes and obesity.

The circadian clock, he found, even mediates the immune system. Mice with a crucial circadian molecule missing had higher levels of inflammation in their bodies than other mice, suggesting that genes and molecules involved in the circadian clock could be drug targets for conditions linked to inflammation, such as infections or cancer.
