Thx. for bringing neuroscience to YouTube. Excellent.

Wow, that Parkinson’s segment was mind blowing! And so was the trans - cis segment! Ya explain everything so clearly 👍

What Professor Sapolsky explained about the identification of sexes in humans should be taught in schools. Not only for biology and medicine students.

The best professor out there... Great memory and lucidity

I doubt THERES anyone more brilliant than this person .

Anyone interested in neuro science should be watching this channel. Sapolsky is way to slept on.

Great! We are trembling 12 oscillations per second!!

3 minutes in and already learning, what a monster person to have that deep of a reservoir of knowledge. If Mr Levin and Mr Sapolsky each release new book this year, it would be a great month. Godspeed

Another fascinating episode.  Thank you.

Amazing. The third topic needs to be made common knowledge by any means necessary for the sake of humanity.

Great episode. The alarming effects of industrial chemicals 😢

Neuromelanin is a new to me concept I just googled it. Apparently it is protective, and helps your brain flush toxins. I love these talks.

I hadn't seen him talk about Parkinson's before, at least not like this, and it's astounding he can launch into almost a full lecture at the drop of a hat.

Brilliant as always thank you

I am a 69 year old trans woman with PIGD Parkinson's. This is a video I really wanted to see.

Re: the trans/cis brains etc. Absolutely fascinating! I truly appreciate the way you make this information available to the lay person. Thank you

Thank you for this episode. I really appreciate it. Please keep making them.

There is SO MUCH of this episode that applies to my now- this professor is by far my favourite even though it is no where near my low-grade field of employment, nor my generalised field of study?
He is absolutely, bar-none, my #1 hero after hearing all of this!
I have a tremor. Several neuro-issues.
My nephew is “meh” about gender identity after him telling me at 14 he would like to try hair & dresses so he could figure out his true feelings. Being a pre-teen can be confusing. I think it may be more exploratory that college~ because of our developmental highly hormonal stage of confusion.
I simply let him know I was supportive of his challenges, but he was perhaps not in the best place to make a final decision. I had everything for him to try comfortably in privacy to discover himself as he saw fit. Today? He is an adult. His partner is a partially transitioned male- his mother JUMPED at 13 to start hormone therapy.  Because apparently in Utah, a change is better than simply admitting to be gay. Being poor “Z” for privacy’s sake was not talked to or given options, I am grateful they have had time together as adults to figure out their path. Also, to note, they are both autistic on different levels of the spectrum.
My question? Can Autism lead to confusions of sexuality with so many neurologic possibilities. How is brain chemistry affected with so many levels of autism? And are either issue associated with the other? Between 13 & 21 they are more comfortable as themselves and have decided together to identify as “any and all.” Not any other pronoun. They honestly do not want to classify. I think it is beautiful they are happy as themselves~ but a 13 yr old put on hormone therapy because of mis-information, mom always wanted a girl, etc etc. How should a parent address this with someone at such a fragile turning point in life? Genetic testing? Etc??

Brilliant - thank you

I've always wondered what happened to the dopamine after being "used". Thanks for that explanation in question one!
