00:02 Today is the lecture 15 of It's October 20 and we have been

00:11 the structure and function of major parts the south, some of the anatomical

00:18 the meninges, the vascular I'm sorry ventricular system. We moved into looking

00:28 the development, early development, no . And then a couple of conditions

00:35 with neural tube formation that are abnormal that can form. We looked at

00:41 differentiation of the primary vesicles into secondary further differentiation into a complex structure of

00:51 brain. And we left off, talked about the cortex how it is

00:58 six layer structure, how it's a structure and also colonist structure at the

01:03 time talked about primary secondary hierarchical processing sensor information and then the association

01:12 the overall structure of the brain. discussed different parts of the spinal

01:20 different parts of the brain stem, cephalon, thalamus, hypothalamus. The

01:25 nuclei such as basil ganglia, hippocampus the amygdala and cerebral cortex, cerebral

01:33 and the major lobes. We ended talking about the thalamus and thalamus is

01:42 structure where all of the sensor information it reaches cortex. So let say

01:49 information. Coming into the air center cochlear to before it goes into the

01:54 the auditory cortex it will actually be through multiple stations. But the last

02:01 before it goes into the cortex is and what we saw is that thomas

02:07 comprised of multiple nucleons. So each will observe a different function. The

02:14 inputs, the visual inputs that will studying today from the retina will leave

02:20 it will enter the specific nucleus of thalamus called lateral nucleus and from there

02:27 will go into the primary visual cortex the occipital lobe area, 17 auditory

02:34 will enter into the medial nucleus before goes into the auditory cortex and the

02:40 lobe. It's a matter of sensor , everything from the neck down that's

02:47 through the spine through the spine, will ascend through the spinal cord,

02:54 column, n dorsal column nuclei and go into the ventral ministerial lateral

03:02 The and then projecting to the primary cortex and uh in the new

03:12 So at first it was thought that is a relay station. You know

03:17 the retina into thalamus and then into over here for visual inputs. But

03:24 know that there are sophisticated circuits, and inhibitory circuits within these individual nuclei

03:32 they are capable of adjusting or what call modulating or gaining, allowing more

03:40 a sensory signal to come in or of the sensor signal to commence.

03:44 they actively essentially influence the sensor signal it reaches the cortex. The cortex

03:51 also going to communicate back into the nuclei and we'll see how that works

03:58 we study the I think the third of the visual system. The other

04:05 feature of the thalamus is that surrounding thalamus you have this sheet that we

04:13 to as a particular nucleus and it have down below the entire thalamus And

04:19 is a collection of the inhibitory inter that will also be controlling activity,

04:25 activity and processing of that activity at level of the thalamus. Hypothalamus is

04:32 of the autonomic control involved in involuntary function control. We talked about hypothalamus

04:41 involved in neuro endocrine system. We about hypothalamus being involved in H.

04:46 . A hypothalamic pituitary adrenal axis for response and control of stress hormone.

04:54 also has multiple functions in the It has rather lose blood brain barrier

05:02 it can detect changes in temperature. can also detect any toxins that may

05:08 found in the blood and reacted before structures do. Uh And finally a

05:15 of down in south Carolina is a cosmetic nucleus which is the master body

05:19 regulator. It's the nucleus that expresses transcription factors during the day or during

05:26 evening. And an icon and that your awakened sleep cycles or circadian eternal

05:35 . So here are some structures that discussed And this exam is gonna be

05:40 rich in questions for labeling different structures different functions of those structures in the

05:49 . This is our optic eye ASM the optic nerves will cross over here

05:55 eye ASM you have the corpus this massive fiber bundle that will interconnect

06:01 two hemispheres have this big what is Singulair drivers here. The cerebellum from

06:08 back of the brain. You have nucleus that we talked about and there

06:14 have the hippocampus also in three dimensions in the brain. So these are

06:19 good labeling questions. Uh cerebellum, has its own to left and right

06:27 in the middle of has a verma's like we talked about cerebellum, cerebellum

06:33 involved in procedural memory, is involved the iptc lateral control of motor

06:40 It's involved in fine tuning and adjustment motor commands that have already been initiated

06:46 the cortex before it reaches the spinal for the final execution of most of

06:52 motor commands that happen below the So this structure is responsible for procedural

07:00 . This structure and the campus is for semantic memory we discussed. The

07:06 is also responsible for spatial memory or memory and in alzheimer's disease of the

07:14 is one of the structures that gets by Alzheimer's disease and one of the

07:19 of alzheimer's is inability to orient yourself space, not just in time but

07:25 in space. So hippocampus is also for spatial memories that we create um

07:33 are often associated because you typically associate in new environments with something else that

07:39 can recognize, some signs that you , some store name that you recognize

07:43 such. So now this is procedural which is mechanical, more of a

07:51 motor tasks riding a bicycle but it be as complex as doing somersaults with

07:59 skateboard, you know 5m up in and such. If you remove the

08:07 , the cerebellum would be exposing the peed uncles. So this is where

08:13 is attached uncles. And obviously because is cerebellum, you're looking from the

08:20 side. So you're looking at you can see the fourth ventricle part

08:27 the ventricular system narrowing into go into spinal canal and the spinal cord.

08:35 if you remove the cerebellum you expose of my favorite structures that we talk

08:41 corporate quadra gemini. It is composed the two left and right, superior

08:46 , sauce and two left and right calculus. So superior caligula sees,

08:51 will learn as we study. The system is responsible for psychotic or very

08:58 uh jump like eye movements and empirical is involved in processing auditory information.

09:08 vision, certain part of the digital and auditory information. Now, everything

09:18 we do that we sense from below the neck down comes from the spinal

09:28 that communicate that information to the spinal . And we will actually look at

09:33 spinal nerves that are shown here and them in a minute. But we

09:38 finished talking about major parts of the and now we're gonna talk about brain

09:44 and what are some of the nerves come out of the brain stem.

09:48 everything touch sensation, heat, pain here down from basically below the skull

09:57 processed through spinal nerves that enter into neck, into the cervical air,

10:02 and all the way processing information from lower body. Now, everything that

10:07 feel on your face, everything that move in your face, like your

10:14 , you speak and wink turn control of the eyes off the face of

10:25 head. This is the cranial nerves these cranial nerves are distributed throughout the

10:32 stone there are 12 cranial nerves and start from the top, more

10:39 going down to inferior from 1 to . The first nerve is the olfactory

10:48 and it's not shown here. And is shown here for example is this

10:54 the back. Okay, so this dorsal. So you can see the

10:58 curriculums here for example And the second nerve is shown is the optic

11:04 So there are 12 nerves. But gonna want you to know six out

11:09 those 12 nerves and I will tell which ones they are optic nerve as

11:13 can see obviously is one optic nerve comes from one I this is the

11:18 view and from the other eye. then the optic nerves cross over through

11:23 optic chasm and after they cross over optic chasm, then they become optic

11:30 optic tract will contain components of both left and the right eye. This

11:36 number two, Number three is ocular and all three of these nerves that

11:43 you to know 1234. Factory smell information optic nerve visual system because we

11:51 study that in greater detail. Ocular . I want you to know that

11:56 it's a part of what we're going discuss with the movement of the eyeball

11:59 the visual system. But also as can see, some of the cranial

12:04 will tell you what they do. ocular the eye motor motor for the

12:12 movement of the eye. Other nerves tell you what they do. So

12:17 a nerve is number four. We discuss that in great detail. Trigeminal

12:22 wants you to know number five. doesn't tell you what it does but

12:26 tells you something about the nerve. germinal has three major branches for that

12:33 . Five. And I want you know it because it's the largest

12:38 You should be able to recognize. fall somewhere in the middle of the

12:42 nerves. And you can see that will have 1234. Then you have

12:49 the ponds you'll have this very prominent . You should be able to label

12:54 trigeminal nerve and trigeminal nerve is responsible a lot of sensory and motor functions

13:00 the in the in the face and facial muscles. Then you have a

13:07 nerve then which is six. You facial and intermediate nerve which is

13:15 You have vestibular cochlear nerve which is . And I want you to know

13:21 nerve so so far. 12358. tubular cochlear to it's also one of

13:27 mirrors that tells you what it This tabula apparatus cochlear cochlear so it

13:34 to uh fiber bundles one from the or province, one from the processing

13:41 from the copa. Okay, so so good. Mr. Number

13:47 Glass. A forensic real and vagus . So Glass of forensic real and

13:55 nerve nine and 10. Glass. Perenchio Lhasa is tongue for ngos

14:03 So something to do with control or information, remote information from the town

14:09 bearings. Something to do with um with with with with other different complex

14:19 moving of the tongue. So happened nerve which is number 12. And

14:25 don't mean to skip over accessory nerve is a lot of about half a

14:29 cell again. Has to do something tongue and underneath the tongue movement or

14:35 of the uh sublingual regions essential. . So what nerves I want you

14:42 know is 1,235, eight and It is supposed to be like oh

14:54 and 10 is the vagus nerve because know the vagus nerve uh in the

15:00 that you know that that's where the transmission was discovered that vagus nerve innovates

15:08 heart. But vagus nerve is one the most extensively um innovating nerves throughout

15:16 body and the viscera pop, It's to remember all of the 12 cranial

15:22 and I'm not asking you to remember all. I'm asking you to remember

15:26 of them Now. Some of these and sensory, some of them are

15:32 . Some of them are both, they're both have sensory component and motor

15:38 . When I take them to graduate , the head and neck, we

15:42 to know all 12 all of their and we have to be able to

15:47 them on the real human cadaver. that was really uh interesting and uh

15:56 had an opportunity as undergraduate to actually the surgeries for the tests and expose

16:01 nerves. Put little like red tags yellow tags and green tags with numbers

16:08 we have students and later me as mentor, we would basically have them

16:13 correctly for the functions and for what are. So when we had to

16:17 it, we came up with this . This pneumonic is not, it's

16:25 great. It's not perfect. But something that worked for me for a

16:29 long time. And this is the bunny pneumonic and why we came up

16:36 this is because we were bored. was late at night and we had

16:38 prepare for the exam and no other that were in the text books or

16:43 . We're sticking. So we started around came up with bugs bunny

16:49 oh to touch and feel very green . Ah so here, the

16:58 the first letter of the word 002 . Touch T corresponds to the first

17:09 of the cranial room. So, , back throughout the optic optimal

17:15 two stroke clear, four trigeminal five since six facial 7. Very

17:25 nine federal vegetables, Davis, And uh that really helped us memorize

17:34 of the nerves and and and their . Uh and I never forgot

17:38 no money. So when we needed kind of figure out which one's a

17:46 , which one's the motor. Then Bunny said, so, so much

17:52 . But my brother says, Bugs makes more. So here s is

18:01 m his motor and B is both motor. So, so, so

18:07 money. But if you remember you remember that the first three nerves

18:11 I'm asking you to know. so much money. But so sensory

18:18 , motor and both components sensory and number eight sensory. This video copia

18:26 10 vagus nerve is both okay, and motor. So you can use

18:33 pneumonic, you don't have to, can come up with a separate pneumonic

18:37 just the six nerves that I'm asking to know for this exam. And

18:43 what do you need to know about nerves? So you need to know

18:46 one is which you need to The trigeminal is the largest, you

18:51 probably be able to label the trigeminal and the optic nerves and the chi

18:56 um pretty well because they just stand so well uh you should probably know

19:02 vagus nerve is where the neural transmission discovered. So I may ask you

19:08 this point. The question related to fellow, his discovery could be which

19:16 nerve below we stimulate number 46789 And so if you study that and

19:24 studied the first portion of the course you have the answer very easily.

19:30 ? Uh So hopefully this helps you and I hope it does because if

19:36 go on into the professional world and anything to do with like biological medical

19:43 it's very often that you may have come back to maybe you're working in

19:48 , rehabilitation, Davis nerve stimulation for . Uh You're in dental school taking

19:55 neuroscience, you're in medical school taking neuroscience. You're in the school of

20:02 studying the structure of the retina. all of these things become very useful

20:09 hopefully it will help you in the as well. So let's go back

20:17 not this. But this this is we were this is what's going on

20:23 this is the sensations from the face had an act the control the chewing

20:29 movement of the tongue, the output the speech final output of the speech

20:35 out controlled by the cranial nerves. the spinal nerves are associated with their

20:44 vertebra. So you have seven cervical , C. One through C.

20:50 . And you have the first cervical above. And then you have the

20:56 cervical nerves. So you have a of eight cervical nerves associated with the

21:01 vertebra. Then you have thoracic One, choose thoracic 12, vertebra

21:06 . 12. And you have 12 nerves. Then lumber L. One

21:12 L. Five, lumbar vertebra And you have five lumber nerves and

21:17 you finally have the sacral vertebra and cervical nerves shown there now. Uh

21:27 you can see the nerves radiate out between each vertebra on each side and

21:33 one of the spinal nerves on each will be comprised of the sensory and

21:37 component. And we'll look into the of that. And quite often you

21:43 hear in the clinical world the injuries C. Three or C. Four

21:49 the nerve is pinched. Let's say T. One. And if the

21:55 pinch to ti wan then very likely pain would be associated with the area

22:02 the nerve from. T wan right thoracic burning for juan projects toward the

22:08 area and and the arm. So there's numbness for example or something like

22:15 and that's because of the pinched nerve this region because of the pinch spinal

22:21 , it's very likely that it's going be T. One or C.

22:24 for example, I'm sorry, or . Eight. Okay, so each

22:30 will process information from different parts, the way from the head to the

22:37 extremities, spinal cord proper ends at L two L three. And about

22:44 area here, number two, Number . And from that point on it

22:50 out into this uh kind of a out fiber bundle that's reminiscent of horse's

22:58 . And therefore it has the name , the queen of kata, kata

23:04 , retail china, equestrian horses So this is the spinal nerves and

23:12 innovation that you will see. So all of the sensors and motor

23:17 Of course, motor commands will initiate the cortex. Right? And basal

23:23 . The final execution of these commands the neck will be through this movement

23:29 the activation of the spinal cord. nerves. Yeah. No, not

23:37 . Because we'll come back to when talk about the Samata sensor system.

23:42 I was actually thinking about that yesterday like why aren't the to kind of

23:46 together the two images? And I'm to redo the slides for the accessibility

23:51 . They changed all of the rules us. I think almost overnight.

23:56 I'm gonna potentially think about including But that's a good question that each

24:01 of those nerves will also be associated a different area of the skin where

24:06 sensor information is that is processing to come back and talk about it.

24:13 Five. So so each spinal I said as a sensory component dorsal

24:23 ganglion. So these are the peripheral . The bundle here ganglion is the

24:30 of the DRG cells that the central and the central axons will innovate in

24:37 dorsal side here and then the motor will the difference right? The output

24:46 the motor neurons will exit out through ventral side, also called the ventral

24:51 . And see. So these are motor neuron fibers that will form and

24:56 enveloped, Kind of the same spinal running into a different part of the

25:03 . You can see that this gray here let's label dorsal horn ventral

25:10 spinal canal is where the super spinal is. And so if you want

25:16 , for example, do a spinal uh which is basically sampling the cerebral

25:25 fluid. And that happens if somebody meningitis and there's an infection in the

25:31 , bacterial or viral infection on the . There's going to be infectious agents

25:40 the cerebrospinal fluid about the bacteria viruses . And you cannot really immediately put

25:47 needle into the ventricle because that's a complex neurosurgical procedure. But what you

25:57 do is you can sample through the fluid is called the spinal tab.

26:02 you would you would basically tap through meninges which surrounds the spinal cord

26:09 But you would do it in the where the spinal cord proper already has

26:15 . So right below that L. . You would put attractants sort of

26:20 so soft needle and draw out some the cerebrospinal fluid which is much easier

26:28 to do it in the lumber And it's not really a as complicated

26:34 putting a needle into somebody's ventricles through parts of the brain and statue.

26:42 that's just some valuable information. Obviously meninges meninges are gonna be protecting the

26:47 cord that where there are so much in the spinal cord you see the

26:53 area. So it looks sort of a butterfly with a dorsal horn and

26:57 ventral horn. And this is where so mazar mostly off the uh into

27:04 of the spinal cord and the motor of the spinal cord. Because the

27:07 root ganglion so mazar here in the in the ganglion. Okay and in

27:15 back you can see what are labeled dorsal columns. So there is surrounding

27:21 gray matter. We have the wide the wide matter that several projections that

27:27 either ascending from the major sending projections going through the dorsal columns or

27:33 So that's information from the spinal cord is being communicated to the brain and

27:40 brain also communicating information back to the cord. These are the major sensing

27:49 sensory pathways to the dorsal column. I want you to know this and

27:54 able to recognize dorsal column is the sending sensory path Alex. And in

28:01 to dorsal column he also has finally track some of these tracks or interconnections

28:10 you where they originate and where they're to. So if it is spinal

28:18 IQ, that means it originates and that goes into these columns, that

28:24 it's ascending tract, vice versa. can have Corta co spinal tract which

28:33 from originating in the cortex and going spine. Is that ascending and

28:39 Is the descending track? So descending to motor packers. And I don't

28:46 you to know that details of the pathways would definitely be able to recognize

28:52 dorsal column because such a vast area in between the wings. The butterfly

28:58 , on the dorsal horns of the cord. Again, techno spinal originates

29:07 tech tim is the spine. The spinal, the stimulus Perata's is the

29:12 . So I don't want you to the details of this but understand that

29:18 you look at the definition cortical it means from cortex to thalamus,

29:25 cortical means from thalamus to cortex. , so it's typically the where it

29:31 was the first word or the first of the structure where it's going to

29:36 second word. The second name of structure. You have the autonomic,

29:42 our autonomic visceral nervous system. So a whole projections here that are sympathetic

29:52 parasympathetic ganglia. And you can see in green here for example, you

29:59 the vagus nerve and you can see vagus nerve innovating the hard components

30:06 the visceral components and digestive system into organs. Okay, we don't spend

30:12 time about on the peripheral nervous But as I mentioned, the interactions

30:20 in the peripheral nervous system interactions and pheasant, terrine nervous system, the

30:26 , the gut and the nerve endings . What we call the brain,

30:30 axis is the axis between the brain the gut is really emerging is a

30:36 important field of study. Okay, now we kind of understand again about

30:43 major parts of the brain, the and their functions their locations. We

30:49 a lot of different experimental techniques by we can study activity in neurons.

30:54 can measure action potentials, we can post synaptic potentials, we can visualize

31:01 flux is we can image calcium And ultimately what we want to be

31:09 to do is to have clinical tools allow us to measure fast activity of

31:18 brain. Most of the imaging that done in the body or the brain

31:24 not imaging activity but rather structural So when we talk about imaging the

31:31 activity and by the way this is in the Abacus box and the

31:38 When you talk about imaging a lot most common knowledge of uh imaging of

31:45 structures is probably the yearly checkup at dentist office and the dental scan which

31:53 X rays. And when they take rays it shows you all of the

31:57 , it shows you all of the structure really well. X rays can

32:01 you abnormalities more larger abnormalities in the issue as well. But it's not

32:07 good necessarily. And computer tomography or scans are sophisticated X rays that are

32:15 multidimensional and their X rays that essentially the structure, different focal points,

32:26 angles to allow to recreate the really three dimensional view of the structures.

32:33 CT scans again can be used for changes in the bone. If there

32:39 any fluid build up near the bone will show up. But if there

32:44 masses, abnormal mass formations, tumor in the head or neck. Because

32:52 us this is what we're interested in neuroscientists. Then CT scan would also

32:58 some of the features of those abnormal formations and tissue formations. Magnetic resonance

33:11 . You're not using X rays. you're using a magnet that is detecting

33:19 in hydrogen atoms. And you will about two techniques uh that are functional

33:28 techniques. So again, if you it's changing the structure of the bone

33:34 the tumors such as glioblastoma. So most common brain tumors caused by real

33:41 uh you don't know about what is activity changes. How do you measure

33:49 in the brain. So later in course we'll talk about E E.

33:54 . Electroencephalogram. You put electric recordings measure neuronal activity but you want to

34:00 image neuronal activity or neuronal circuit And to do that you can employ

34:08 positron emission tomography which is pet or . M. R. I.

34:14 is functional magnetic residence imaging. In cases what you're really tracking is regional

34:26 flow and brain metabolism. Because neurons are active remember we looked at the

34:32 early on and we said oh look part of the brain is active when

34:36 person is looking at the words this of the brain is acting when the

34:40 is listening to the words and then some other part of the brain is

34:45 . So why is that showing up these cans is because active neurons demand

34:51 lot of oxygen. They demand a of glucose so they demand food and

34:58 and they will be drawing more and food and oxygen. So the neuronal

35:02 that are active they will synchronize be and they will sequester more and more

35:09 the resources towards that part of the . And then another part of the

35:13 becomes active or more active than this . And that part of the brain

35:18 sequester the resources through the micro innovating the brain tissue. But Mariah

35:26 have a hydrogen atom has one proton between high and low energy states.

35:32 frequency at which low state protons absorb is called the resonant frequency which resonates

35:40 the frequency the speed at which it between the state two states and there's

35:44 death. So uh um it's uh waves by protons and and F.

35:51 . R. I. It's a coil. It's similar to pat

35:55 It's a magnetic coil that get placed it. And these procedures are pretty

36:02 because for having neck scans, the and the magnet space is pretty

36:10 So if you have claustrophobia, if have anxiety, other conditions if you

36:19 a child it needs to get ahead the next scan done. If you're

36:24 elderly person It could be loud some the movement of the equipment around your

36:31 . It can take time 20 40 minutes depending on what area how

36:37 of the head and neck or the body. Which can these cats can

36:41 whole body imaging to not everybody can go through this procedure. Some people

36:48 sedated and have to either be lightly or go onto the general anesthesia to

36:57 still but then obviously affecting the So if you're getting anesthetized then it's

37:05 for imaging some other things like a stroke damage from stroke or abnormal growth

37:14 the brain. So now you'll still really nice images and functional.

37:23 R. I. Will give you images that we see with pet scan

37:27 give you these hotspots. These hotspots say this is stimulation. So when

37:32 stimulate the brain let's say this person being told the story and they're listening

37:37 talking or listening about the story of to music background and then they turn

37:44 the music and the background and they the brain again and you can see

37:49 the hotspots have redistributed. So you take the stimulated activity images of activity

37:57 subtract them from control images of And the difference will show you what

38:02 of the brain were involved in stimulation in this part of the brain that

38:07 involved. Ah There is not that of a resolution here. So we're

38:15 at single neurons here, we're looking what what is the resolution of a

38:21 pixel here? Single pixel is typically one centimeter cute. Okay so you're

38:33 at thousands hundreds of thousands of neurons some sophisticated preparations, you may be

38:43 to go down to one millimeter which 1000 microns Cell diameter is 10

38:52 You're still looking at hundreds of cells that square area. Okay so uh

39:01 area really. So it's a lot cells ultimately we want to be able

39:09 do. This is a somewhat noninvasive and that's what I said. It's

39:12 difficult procedure. It's not the same your double X ray at the dentist

39:19 . You know done you know and sit this this this may take for

39:26 emission tomography. You have radioactively labeled with positively charged ions gets injected in

39:33 bloodstream. Have to sit around and for about half an hour to an

39:38 until you become really hot. And cannot be around other people. You're

39:44 to separate room because you're radioactive radio you can be and then it has

39:53 certain half life radio activity so it away in your body but it also

40:00 for the best imaging. And uh even with X rays or CT s

40:06 can also inject contrast into the blood distinguished blood vessels from soft tissue and

40:11 the bones. But here you are and you go in and the protons

40:16 electrons and admit electromagnetic radiation in the of the photons that get captured by

40:24 coil here. And the procedure if you're doing the head and neck

40:28 probably about 20 minutes but To wait an hour or 20 minutes. And

40:34 these substances get cleared. And not everybody can do this because you

40:41 and metabolizes a lot of substances toxins materials. You have kidney that filters

40:50 blood. So people that have liver , dysfunctions or compromised livers or kidney

40:59 liver dysfunctions. They may not be to go through some of these

41:04 And the difference in the two is in pet scans you're looking at the

41:11 consumption. So you're measuring two Oxygen, glucose and F.

41:16 R. I. You're looking at consumption and you're looking at hemoglobin oxygenated

41:23 which will carry oxygen on it. deoxygenated hemoglobin. Deoxygenated hemoglobin. So

41:30 part of the brain and the ratio these the oxygenated and deoxygenated the parts

41:36 the brain that are active will need lot more oxygen. So they will

41:42 higher ratio of deoxygenated human globe. parts of the brain that are not

41:48 active will have more of the oxygenated floating around because they're not utilizing as

41:55 of it as the parts of the that are being activated. Ultimately uh

42:03 techniques are also not very fast. a certain delay even when you give

42:08 tasks there's a delay of seconds if hundreds of milliseconds. Ultimately we want

42:15 be able to develop technologies that allow to visualize non invasively activity of the

42:26 . But all the way down to neuron. Single cell. It's a

42:33 complex task to do that. There's machines. These magnets can be very

42:39 for M. R. I. hear five T. That's five Teslas

42:45 Tesla magnets are very powerful magnets. but hopefully there will be some interesting

42:53 and maybe all of you can contribute developing some of them to get to

42:58 single cell resolution on a clinical and invasive level. And scientists have been

43:05 on this for a good 100 of with electrophysiology and probably a good 50

43:13 years using these advanced imaging techniques. so this concludes our section on the

43:22 . N. S. And the of the lecture we will talk about

43:31 visual system a little bit and introduce anatomy of the eye. And the

43:45 german term gets styled this configuration of . It's everything that you see is

43:50 you perceive it. What we see properties of objects in the organization of

43:57 by the brain. We have a organization in the visual cortex, we

44:03 certain organization in the circus of the . We have three major subtypes of

44:10 in the retina. We are limited that. We have three color

44:16 Not 16 were limited by three color . We are limited by the

44:22 We have two eyes, not That would be cool All the way

44:28 like 360 vision. Um We learn lot of things from the outside

44:35 We make a lot of assumptions. three dimensions that we are experiencing are

44:40 from two dimensional images and we organize sensations into a stable pattern gestalt that

44:48 moves around with us as we move it's stable despite variation and the information

44:58 . And uh most of the things looking at from a distance, two

45:05 . So this is two dimensional. art. Do not mention a

45:27 You can fix it quickly. So what what is that? Most of

45:34 would say it's a box but it's just a whole bunch of lines and

45:40 that are two dimensions. And we this three dimensional structure and understanding just

45:48 looking at it. So we make assumptions what is to be seen in

45:53 world. And we derive these expectations from experience. So we learn

45:59 So we're growing up and apart from built in wiring and limitations of this

46:04 and maybe some of the advantages of wiring that we don't understand very well

46:09 someday will be even better processing visual . So what are some of the

46:17 that we make at the top? have a the biggest pattern B You

46:23 this assumption of similarity, which if were to ask you what is

46:27 Most of you would say these are lines of blue alternating with vertical lines

46:35 yellow thoughts. And I would say about this? And you would

46:40 well these are horizontal lines alone, lines in blue. And that's an

46:45 that most of us would make in this this this question of looking at

46:51 diagram. However, what if the intended that these are horizontal lines with

46:58 blue, yellow, blue, blue, yellow and uh this is

47:03 columns, yellow, blue, blue, yellow, blue. You're

47:06 not looking at that in the same . And so not everybody will see

47:10 the same way. Not everybody has same interpretations that everybody has the same

47:17 of this similarity assumptions by which we and group things visually together of the

47:25 proximity. You just basically bring these closer here and further apart and you

47:34 them closer here with further apart in here. Here, you will say

47:39 , these are vertical dot lines. are was on a lot lines,

47:45 again, it could be the It could be that this is the

47:50 pattern. But whoever designed the pattern had this idea about that pattern for

47:56 architectural pattern chairs in the building, in the hallway and so on.

48:04 have illusions and we also make assumptions we get confused by some of the

48:13 we're seeing. But this is one the classical delusions that I'm actually gonna

48:21 . So it's the same length, the same like that I'm drawing on

48:29 board with this arrow here for this here, but in this one,

48:37 gonna put the arrows in like Mhm. And then this one,

48:45 gonna put the arrows out like And when you look at the two

48:54 and again, if you did not , but I used the same

48:59 if you did not know and I to ask you these lives equal

49:04 you would say no. The bottom is so much longer and then the

49:10 one that's an assumption that you're making you're now seeing something narrowing in going

49:18 versus going out. But that's an that our brains make. And then

49:26 I'll do is all but the lime and josh wine and it's and

49:41 a, you know, rectangle, it's the exact same length with two

49:49 too. So we have these things we call illusions. We also learn

49:57 things so that when we see people away in the hallway, that's for

50:03 , not an illusion. That's not , we don't say it's a much

50:09 person because they're hot the whole way , you know, like from the

50:14 tale, you know, little but that's not the case. And

50:21 , you will probably look at It's the same chair. So probably

50:24 same size, same size person just further away, you know,

50:29 This door is big and there's you know, john Malkovich door in

50:35 back holiday, you know, So are illusions and once we learn

50:40 it's very easy to recognize two surveys, frogs and green fish and

50:47 room. These are very simple And once you see them then you'll

50:52 forget it. But there are very ones. And there are three dimensional

50:57 there are even motion. Uh, three dimensional illusions. If you focus

51:05 one spot that are quite difficult to all the different parts and pieces in

51:11 . Light comes into the eye and has properties. Its electromagnetic radiation that

51:18 wavelength amplitude and frequency wavelength is here from 407 100 nanometers is our visible

51:28 wavelength is then you can say is color. Uh And the frequency of

51:37 wave like it's gonna be. How is repeating the amplitude is gonna

51:48 How strong is the color. So you can when you buy flashlights and

51:54 200 lumens, 400 lumens. So the amplitude. But the color of

52:01 flashlight, the wavelength, the frequency be the same. It's just a

52:08 much brighter element for producing the same of life. Uh There is another

52:15 Roy g biv red, orange, , green, blue and violence so

52:24 are 400 below that we have ultraviolet rays, gamma rays on the other

52:31 of the red. You have infrared , radar broadcast that broadcast bands and

52:36 circuits. We see the world and the world. And these wave lines

52:42 and there are animals around us that the world outside of our visible

52:50 And they perceive things differently. And may perceive the world more like kind

52:54 heat maps rather than color maps. eye anatomy that will start discussing is

53:04 of doing everything that you're seeing Actually. You can reflect the balance

53:10 of the light off from a different and bend that light. There also

53:17 . The darker surfaces that are gonna more absorbed. The light, you

53:20 absorb light and when the light crosses between two media such as air and

53:27 will get refracted will get bent. also gonna be bending of the

53:32 not just the reflection bent but bending the light as it's going through.

53:37 that happens so that from the air sun rays light rays enter into the

53:46 and there's a pris environment here. is the cornea. These are the

53:50 sell extra ocular muscles in the back the eye. You have the

53:54 the irises, clara college activa here pupil where the information of the light

54:01 going to enter as that information enters the retina. What we will learn

54:12 the next two lectures is the whole . Today we're just starting to understand

54:18 anatomy of the eye. But if stick with me for the next two

54:25 lectures you understand how this information from I actually is the circus in the

54:32 . What are the circuits the function the circus and the retina. How

54:36 information projects into the lateral nucleus of 1000 books and from there how it

54:44 processed in the primary visual cortex. you should be able to at the

54:50 of these three lectures to understand the and the function of these different circuits

54:57 creating a primal sketch of the visual of the outside world as you can

55:05 the information and the primary visual cortex stop. It goes to secondary tertiary

55:10 the temporary, it actually forms to streams that split. And this is

55:16 we're talking about when this visual information gonna get co joined. It's gonna

55:21 into the association areas we're gonna get with different senses, different modalities such

55:28 hearing, such as touch motor So this bottom part here it goes

55:35 the inferior temporal cortex and is referred as eventual inferior temporal pathway. And

55:41 pathway that the qi is there at top on the left and this pathway

55:46 concerned with processing color information. Form and a little bit of death but

55:55 color and form the pathway that projects the posterior parietal cortex. Up there

56:04 called the dorsal parietal pathway and that is mostly concerned with processing motion,

56:13 and form motion and depth. Interesting the motion part is creeping up closer

56:22 the motor cortex eventually information from what seeing and how you're performing motor tasks

56:31 very importance of you waiting your hands punching people in their face. You

56:37 see the distance, adjust for communicate to your motor commands and and so

56:44 have the split going their color. you're listening to music color right?

56:51 thinking about maybe temporal of now you're to involve the areas responsible for hearing

56:58 language speech areas which you're seeing, form, the color becomes important what

57:04 write, how you speak also, you describe things. The special

57:13 Visual system you have this canal for drainage. You have lack ramo grande

57:18 produces the um tears you have in front uh here of the of the

57:28 . The Aquarius humor which supplies the and nurses as part of the

57:33 And a curious human impairments can be to glaucoma amongst other things. And

57:40 eyeball shape is really supported by the humor which gives the eyeball this whole

57:47 . The lens as you can is here and it is suspended by

57:51 suspense serie ligaments have axillary bodies and thickness of the lens depends on the

58:00 of these little muscle ligaments. So they contract. If these ligaments contract

58:09 will stretch the lens and the lens become thinner. If they relax,

58:14 lens will relax and become thicker and what helps us focus in a different

58:22 . Is actually changing not only moving head but also changing the thickness of

58:28 lens, which helps us focus in closer or farther away object. The

58:35 is located all the way in the of the eyeball you have in the

58:39 of the eyeball, the optic nerve you also have the vascular system that

58:45 out where the optic nerve exits You have a blind spot because there's

58:50 information processing where the fibers are running . It's called the optic discs in

58:55 area is called the phobia is the is located very centrally right centrally in

59:02 of the pupil. So phobia, you will see contains very high densities

59:09 cone photoreceptors and it's so designed that of the direct axial rays of light

59:17 atomically will be directed into the photo region. So phobia is the highest

59:25 , the highest resolution processing area. that's why when you need to see

59:31 you don't see them while sometimes adding light and directing that light directly into

59:38 phobia helps you resolve and see Okay? I asked security or highest

59:47 vision. As you can see there's whole circuit here in the retina.

59:52 uh I think that uh we will discussing the circuit but this is going

59:59 be the last slide that I show today the information in the, I

60:04 gonna come in the eyeball. You to travel through all that goop.

60:10 until it gets to the back of eyeball, to the retina. In

60:15 retina is gonna encounter forest of neurons gonna penetrate the light. Is going

60:22 travel all the way in the back this retinal circuit and it's going to

60:27 activate the photo receptors. You have photoreceptors and rod photoreceptors. Great labeling

60:37 . Am I going over time? uh coats are blue, red and

60:45 . If you haven't caught on In my test, I may ask

60:49 a question true or false. A choice and then if you go to

60:54 question, there's a diagram. So I ask you questions what types of

61:00 you have blue, red and you can't remember. Maybe you should

61:05 and see if there is a labeling that shows something that indicates that.

61:11 there's a little bit of circularity and of the questions that I asked between

61:17 and especially multiple choice that can help . Also a lot of times read

61:23 question very well because there's maybe something the name of the structure, a

61:29 that's mentioned, not just the answer the question itself that actually has maybe

61:35 hint indication toward the answer. So light comes in from this direction it

61:43 photo transaction process which we'll talk It activates these photoreceptors and information processing

61:52 now going to flow from the back the retina from the receptors photo receptors

61:58 the bipolar ourselves. Remember we talked the different morphological descriptions of cells and

62:06 we talked about pseudo unit polar bipolar , Visa bipolar cells of retina bipolar

62:12 and these bipolar cells are going to onto the retinal ganglion cells and these

62:19 ganglion cells are going to form the of the cranial nerve to the optic

62:26 that is going to exit out of back of the red. Okay,

62:32 first this slide here gets transducer into electrical signal, you have synaptic

62:40 We have synaptic potentials and the bipolar . And the only output from the

62:46 is retinal ganglion cells. The retinal cells now start producing action potentials in

62:54 this stream of processing. There are types of cells that influence the connectivity

63:01 the communication between but the receptors and cells. Those are the horizontal cells

63:10 between bipolar cells and retinal ganglion Those are the hammer green cells.

63:16 we'll talk about their function over the lecture. So this uh uh last

63:26 actually I said it's the last slide this is just what I've discussed.

63:29 should have showed you that slide a bit earlier. You can see the

63:33 ones you can focus in on fire and then thickened bloods or fat runs

63:41 re focus on near earth objects. so that's what I was referring to

63:47 . Okay so when we come back gonna start looking more into this uh

63:53 circuit, finish talking about what's happening the retina. In the circuits while

63:57 create colors. And after we finish we will move into the lateral nucleus

64:05 on up into the primary visual cortex have a great weekend and I'll see

64:10 on Tuesday. Thank you for being today. Those all in class in

64:16 and those all in
