For today's episode we learn about the cerebellum with Dr. Reza Shadmehr. Dr. Shadmehr is a trailblazing neuroscientist whose groundbreaking work has reshaped our understanding of how the brain controls movement. With a rich academic journey—from a bachelor's in electrical engineering to a PhD in robotics and computer science, followed by a postdoctoral fellowship at MIT—Dr. Shadmehr now leads the Shadmehr Lab at Johns Hopkins University. We dive into his pioneering theories, including motor memory consolidation, state space theory, and the neural encoding of action by the cerebellum's Purkinje cells. The conversation explores the physics of motor movement, prediction, error correction, and the often-overlooked power of the cerebellum—a brain region Dr. Shadmehr calls an “underrated yet powerful” player in our daily lives.Dr. Shadmehr shares his personal path into neuroscience, sparked by a childhood fascination with the brain. This curiosity led him to blend engineering principles with biology, culminating in a lifelong mission to decode how the brain builds internal models for movement. We unpack the cerebellum's critical role in fine-tuning actions—like stopping the tongue precisely or ensuring eye movements hit their mark, to cutting-edge research with marmosets. The episode also touches on the interplay between reward, effort, and cerebellar function, revealing surprising discoveries about how this brain region cancels noise to keep our movements smooth and purposeful.

For today's episode, we expand on Autism and Sensory Processing. We return to the mesencephalon—a brainstem region with superior and inferior colliculi—as a critical hub for sensory integration and attention bias. We cover four scientific articles, starting with Marco et al. (2011), which uses EEGs, MEGs, and fMRIs to reveal autism's auditory processing inconsistencies (e.g., delayed N100/M100 cortical responses), tactile hypersensitivity from overactive receptors, and visual processing quirks like reduced fusiform gyrus activation for faces. Russo et al. then explore brainstem-level deficits, showing autistic children's auditory brainstem responses (ABR) to speech syllables like "DA" exhibit poor neural synchrony and phase locking, especially in noise, due to disrupted wave V, A, D, F timing—linking these to language impairments. These findings point to biological roots, including denser neocortical mini-columns (30-40 vs. 50-60 microns in controls) and cerebellar Purkinje cell loss, impairing local processing and long-range connectivity.The episode continues with Leekam et al. (2007), confirming over 90% of autistic individuals have multi-modal sensory abnormalities—hypo- and hypersensitivity tied to serotonin and GABA dysregulation—persisting across life, while Tomchek and Dunn (2007) note 95% prevalence via caregiver reports, hinting at neural pathway disruptions. At some point, we need to acknowledge the mesencephalon's embryological stasis as one of four neural cell types, suggesting its evolutionary role in sensory modulation is key to Autism's biology. These articles collectively highlight altered neural circuitry, from brainstem to cortex, and biases us to remaining within ourselves. Remember, the biology that gives us Autism allows us to be comfortable within ourselves.

In this episode, my guest is Dr. David Linden, Ph.D., professor of neuroscience at Johns Hopkins University School of Medicine and the author of many popular books about the brain. We discuss individual differences between people — focusing on differences in how people sense the world around them and the roles that chance, heredity, and life experiences (even in utero) play in determining our physical and cognitive traits. We discuss the bidirectional connection between the mind and body and how our thoughts and mental practices (e.g., meditation and breathwork) impact our health. We also discuss the link between inflammation and depression. We also discuss Dr. Linden's terminal illness diagnosis, his mindset during chemotherapy and what his diagnosis has taught him about the mind, gratitude, time perception and life. This episode also covers sensual touch, cerebellar function, and epigenetic inheritance and ought to be of interest to all interested in neuroscience, genetics, psychology and human development.  For the full show notes, including articles, books, and other resources, visit hubermanlab.com.

So today we go into some science…..As some of you will be aware I have been using an amazing app Zing Performance which is an app created to train your brain and in particular our cerebellum.The cerebellum is our skill centre and it came to my awareness through my favourite ADHD book by Dr Ned Hallowell ( ADHD 2.0) that an ADHD brain has an underdeveloped cerebellum which means our thinking brain is taking all the pressure when it comes to learning new skills. This is a great explanation as to why us ADHDers struggle with our executive function. Today's wonderful guest is Wynford Dore is the founder of Zing performance and is referenced by Ned in his book he through a personal struggle with his daughter has been on a mission for 20 years to research this groundbreaking way of treating our ADHD. Wynford says Cerebellum has long lasting effects and that if we could get children to start this training from a young age they would show minimal symptoms of ADHD by the time they were adults. These guys are SO confident about what they have created they even offer a full refund if you don't get results!! A bit about Wynford…For the last 20 years I have focussed my attention on changing the world, one brain at a time. I have funded many research projects and now work with the leading academics to determine the best solutions that successfully accelerate the development of learning in the brain - which finds our hidden potential and increases mental capacity…. including creating greater stronger emotional controls.Zing Performance now has the tools, scientific research, and strategy to achieve the results that every parent and child longs to see.The success that Wynford has seen already speaks for itself and I can honestly say my life and the way I felt changed with just 30 days of Zing Performance training.FIND OUT MORE:  http://www.zingperformance.com/af/adhduntangledhttps://www.instagram.com/wynforddore/?hl=enLet's get Untangled and show the world what we are made of!! ADHD COACHING IT'S TIME TO TURN YOUR ADHD STRUGGLES INTO STRENGTHS AND SHOW UP IN THE WAY YOU WERE ALWAYS MEANT TO!

Something Shiny: ADHD!

David and Isabelle explore the myriad injuries and ponder the links between clumsiness and ADHD--is it because we're clumsy (which there are some fascinating links) or do we try and do too much? And speaking of doing things we don't want to do, but we care about doing, how does chunking help? All this, plus how we try to win by getting all the groceries in the house in one trip. -----Isabelle recounts a series of minor injuries, a bum knee, menstruating, and funny bone elbow stuff, and as she was sitting down she hit bone on bone throughout the day and sit down and had no self-regulation and was crying and then taking a ice pack that she is rotating to every injury. Is this clumsiness/injury-prone-ness ADHD? Or is this just her life? David names that there is a real thing about ADHD and clumsiness, and also some times you just have a bad night. Way more common to injure yourself with ADHD. Both clumsy and not clumsy exist in ADHD; there is some data around balance and your cerebellum and ADHD.  David taking in all his groceries in one trip is maybe the dumbest thing in the world. He has a bag of cat litter on his head, bags up and down his arm and they're both in front of him and then facing the obstacle of the door, he is trying to get the key in the door, but then the door explodes open, and he lands on cat litter—and that's just taking in the groceries. You have to elbow pinch, and using your whole body to align the key with the keyhole, it's a whole thing. But this whole thing is not clumsy—he's doing way too much in a moment.  But is it really clumsiness, or going for the win, or the lack of response cost—it would've been shorter to take two trips, but it was about winning and he had to do it in one.  Isabelle witnesses this in her kids—neurotypical, neurodivergent, all kids—the way you do the task is the way you decided it needed to be done to get the win, rather than what would actually be simplest. And sometimes you step in, and sometimes you just let it fly. While she was just in the doctor's office where she was getting her knee checked out, and she brings her foot up to tie her shoe, the time it takes it takes for you to do this, just take two trips—and that's what her kid does, too, and of course, because she does it, too. Six years ago, David said, fuck laces. No more laces, too much time, can't do velcro professionally, but professional shoes you can't just step in because you'll ruin the heels, so now he's doing this sequence of kicking up his heel to try to jack the shoe in while standing without ruining the heel...and now he is resisting the urge to jump up and show that he does this. Makes David think of chunking, taking two unlike or like items and smashing them together. So every time David takes out the garbage, he cleans the litter box—pairing two things together, he won't forget to take out the garbage. When you can put multiple things together, it makes you feel more effective with your time, why not take care of future you a little bit and make a transition more effective?  Isabelle tries to take an object from one room to another, like anything that you need to rehouse to that room you take with. David names we all do this in our morning routine and going to bed routine — we have "hitting alarm, stretching, brushing teeth, getting dressed, get coffee" and it becomes “wake up routine;” we have "take shower, brush teeth, put on pj's, read a book" and becomes "going to bed routine," all those steps into one chunk.  Isabelle tried this with a client during packing, and actually physically chunking to make a bunch of things just one category of thing, so you don't have to remember all of it, you just have to remember the category (like here is your bag of toiletries). David would chunk together his sequence of actions upon arriving home after travel—initially it was hard, but now it's a reflex—he immediately takes all his clothes and puts it in the laundry, and puts his suitcase away (all right away). Isabelle thinks of the game “my name is Joe and I like to Jump” (she was Isabelle who ice skates and she hates ice skating for the record)—it's like a memorization technique. You're trying to outsource the working memory, so you're building a habit so you don't have to think about it so much any more. Takes six weeks of consistency to build a neurological habit. It's a long long time, but not a long time. But once you've built the connection, any time you justify not doing the thing, everything is broken. When you've been on vacation, and then you return, and then everything's awful for two weeks. Working memory is hard for all of us, but anytime you can outsource it you can. Isabelle hates changing the sheets on beds, especially her kids' low loft bed. The feeling of a clean sheet, maybe top five sensations, after you've freshly showered or bathed, and you have clean sheets—and she takes the thing where she cleans already every week, she adds in changing the sheets. Is it also giving a bigger norepinephrine something, or momentum, or a sense of productivity (and David is furiously thumbs upping it). David affirms: we have to find a way to do the things we care about. When we're able to do the things that make us feel better, even when we don't want to do them, that's norepinephrine— “look at you, you made the bed, stripped the bed, changed the sheets, etc." check mark for the day!Here is just one of many articles on clumsiness and ADHD - essentially, the cerebellum, which is the part of the brain we understand is responsible for learning to move your body in a sequence, etc. is also structurally different and may be connected to the executive functioning and motor sequencing differences in neurodivergent folx (Source: NIH article)You can continue down a whole long rabbit hole ADHD/cerebellum rabbit hole: Cerebellum hypothetically tied to impulsivity and compulsivity (Frontiers in Behavioral Neuroscience, 2019)Also, (from 2011 article) children with ADHD are more likely to have dyspraxia, or differences in performing motor skills like writing, playing sports and games, tying shoelaces, and eating with a knife and fork. DAVID'S DEFINITIONSChunking: taking two unlike or like items and smashing them together. We all do it a ton in wake up and go to bed routines—all those things get chunked together into one thing “night time routine” (eg. Brushing teeth, putting on pjs, getting into bed, etc.)Proprioception (from ScienceDirect's Encyclopedia of Neuroscience): “Proprioception, or kinesthesia, is the sense that lets us perceive the location, movement, and action of parts of the body. It encompasses a complex of sensations, including perception of joint position and movement, muscle force, and effort.”Response Cost: a neurological skill that helps you know the consequences of your actions later on down the road. This is a forebrain skill that is often harder for folx with ADHD.-----Cover Art by: Sol VázquezTechnical Support by: Bobby Richards—————

Northwestern Medicine Central DuPage Hospital Chief Medical Officer Dr. Kevin Most joins the Steve Cochran Show to discuss the discovery of Alzheimer's disease, how to tell the difference between old age forgetfulness & dementia, and treatments to slow the progression of this disease.  Read all of Dr. Most's notes below and listen every Tuesday morning for more medical news. June is Alzheimer's Awareness month Alzheimer's is named after Dr. Alzheimer, who in 1906 had a patient who died with what was then unusual mental illness- after she died he examined her brain and found abnormal clumps, now known to be amyloid and tangled fibers Alzheimer's is the most common cause of Dementia, accounting for 60-80% of all dementia cases- Close to 7 million Americans are living with dementia, 230,000 in Illinois alone Alzheimer's is the 6th leading cause of death The number of cases is felt to be much higher as many cases will go undiagnosed and untreated There is no blood test or screening test to predict Alzheimer's , the diagnosis is made after symptoms are noted, by this time the disease has caused significant damage The age group of over 65 is growing dramatically so the number of cases of dementia is expected to rise. 1 in 9 adults over the age of 65 is in some stage of Alzheimer's We do not have enough long term care facilities or care givers for the expected increase in cases. It is thought that Alzheimer's begins 20 years before memory loss or other symptoms begin, stressing how important it is for research to work on early detection Alzheimer's moves thru stages- Mild- some memory loss- cognitive function decreases- wandering- getting lost- paying bills a problem- personality and behavior changes Moderate- loss of language control, sensory processing- memory loss is worse- difficulty learning new things- difficulty carrying out multitask steps- getting dressed- Severe-  loss of ability to communicate- completely dependent on others for their care- mobility is limited The greatest risk factor is age, but Alzheimer's is not a part of normal aging Rosalynn Carter shared diagnosis of Dementia this past week 10 Early Signs of Alzheimer's Memory that disrupts daily life- forgetting recently learned information- asking the same question over and over. With age related change- we will forget names or events but remember them later Challenges in planning or problem solving- signs include things as common as following a recipe, or keeping track of monthly bills Difficulty completing familiar tasks- like driving to a familiar location, organizing a grocery list Confusion with time and place- lose track of dates and seasons, forgetting where they are or how they got there Vision problems that may lead to difficulty with balance or reading, difficulty judging distances Trouble following or joining a conversation. Stop in middle of a conversation and have no idea how to continue, Difficulty naming a familiar object Misplacing things or placing objects in unusual places and then be unable to retrace steps Poor judgement or decision making- may notice this with money decisions or even grooming Withdrawal from work or social activities- unable to converse in a group, or keeping up with a team activity Changes in mood/personality-  confusion- suspicious- depressed- fearful Basics of the brain Made up of 3 main parts- Cerebrum-memory- problem solving- thinking- feeling- movement- vision.  Cerebellum- coordination and balance Brainstem- connects the brain to the spinal cord- controls breathing- heart rate- blood pressure The brain uses a lot of energy and oxygen- it uses about 25 % of oxygen and fuel, yet doesn't weigh much as a percentage The brain works with chemicals and electrical activity- amazing- think about it, you see something or read something and an electrical and chemical activity stores that in your brain for future use. Your brain tells your arm to move whether you are doing surgery, playing an instrument or taking out the garbage. It tells you what to do and how to do it. In Alzheimer's  we see brain cell death and plaques and tangles making the communication between cells impossible When these healthy connections are stopped those brain cells then die In Alzheimer patients proteins called beta amyloid clump together and build plaques- these block the areas where the signals in the brain occur. The progression of this illness follows a pattern of spread in the brain. Cause of Alzheimer's There is not a single cause of Alzheimer's that has been identified. There are risk factors- age- family history-head injury- heart/head connection Treatment options for Alzheimer's Recently there have been medications that have shown to slow  the pace of Alzheimer's by a third There are 2 that are close to approval- ADUHELM and LEQEMBI – these are placed on an accelerated approval The  most recent medication is an  antibody  that is designed to attack beta amyloid- DONANEMAB- they also are looking for accelerated approval. Medicare announced Thursday that it will cover drugs that are granted full approval. For a drug to go from accelerated approval to full approval more clinical trials are required. RUSH and U of C, are all participating in current trials, awaiting now to see what trials will open for more patients Each of these medications is expected to cost over $25,000 a year, placing them out of reach for most patients. Will Medicare be able to push for a lower cost? These medications appear to slow the build up of the amyloid, thus slowing the progression of the disease The latest drug from Lilly--- Donanemab, was given to 1700 individuals, it was given as a monthly infusion- pace of disease was slowed by 30-35%, it also improved daily functions The medication is given once a month by infusion. The medication worked so well that over half of the individuals were able to stop the medication within one year. The patients who stopped taking the medication are continued to be monitored to see if the amyloid returns and at what rate Plaque buildup of amyloid is the hallmark of Alzheimer's, it was unclear what role amyloid played. There are individuals with no signs of dementia yet still have significant amyloid Many drugs are in development focused on slowing amyloid, or breaking down amyloid, even though the link is not clear, it is part of the of the development it appears This study shows that removing the amyloid, slows the cognitive decline in patients with early Alzheimer's Lilly plans on filing for approval within the next 2 months and will be asking for accelerated approval This is exciting as other drugs are in the pipeline also looking at the slowing of amyloid plaque as well as removing plaque. Now that we have 2 drugs that attack beta amyloid with some success it has convinced scientists they are on the right track These drugs work in the early stages of Alzheimer's, so now we know the key to success here will also be in early diagnosis. Studies are now going on using Artificial Intelligence looking at MRI scans and other medical data points and identifying Alzheimer's before symptoms or at an early stage, Studies are  being done at Mass General, Emory and University of Florida Once the algorithm is set and tested this could be expanded across the country.

Huberman Lab Key Takeaways Mental training and visualization is best used to enhance speed and accuracy of a skill you already have some proficiency at, not necessarily for learning new things“Mental training and visualization cannot replace execution of real world cognitive or motor tasks you want to learn…but is effective in enhancing the speed at which you learn and the stability of that learning over time.” – Dr. Andrew HubermanPrinciples of mental visualization:(1) mental visualization needs to be brief (15-20 sec) and repeated;(2) mental visualization needs to be combined with real world experience;(3) mental training needs to be similar to real world experience;(4) naming and giving identity to real world skill and applying the same name to visualization enhances learning;(5) it takes longer to perform complex motor sequences in mental training and visualization just like it would in the real worldChoosing between real world training and mental training: real world training is better than mental training; mental training is better than no training; but ideally – you'll use mental training to augment real world training and improve speed, accuracy, and consistencyMental training can also be used to get you to stop or ‘no go' components of motor learning, like restricting inappropriate movements or thoughts (e.g., withholding inappropriate action or action sequence) For this training, it's especially important to perform mental training and real world training in combinationRead the full notes @ podcastnotes.orgIn this episode, I explore the science of mental visualization and its application for learning motor and cognitive skills. I discuss neuroplasticity-based skill development and the roles of focus, sleep, movement restriction, and agitation. I then present five key principles of mental visualization to enhance learning speed, accuracy, and consistency. I also provide examples of specific protocols, including repetitions, rest periods, and session frequency, and how to adapt these methods for injuries or breaks from traditional training. Throughout, I reference the scientific studies supporting these concepts. This episode should allow anyone to learn or teach more effectively through the use of mental visualization and training.

The Mystery of Your Mind

The Cerebellum is a small structure located at the lower bottom of the brain, just behind the Spinal Cord and below the Occipital Lobe. While the Cerebellum only contributes to about a tenth of the brain's weight, it contains more than 50% of the neurons of the brain. In this fast-facts episode, Edward reviews the Cerebellum's form and function, as well as the key features that make us who we are.To create this episode, I used information provided by the McGovern Medical School of the University of Texas which can be found here: https://nba.uth.tmc.edu/neuroscience/m/s3/chapter05.html#:~:text=The%20cerebellum%20(%E2%80%9Clittle%20brain%E2%80%9D,of%20neurons%20in%20the%20brain.No statement, phrase, or episode of this series—or any episode in this podcast—are intended to treat, diagnose, cure, prevent, or otherwise change your mind or body in any form or manner.

Listen in to hear Caleb and Bridger dig back in to the short series of articles of Koziol and colleagues detailing a new way to understand the function of the various systems that make up our interconnected brain and give way to an emerging and complex mind. The title of the article discussed in this episode is Large-Scale Brain Systems and Subcortical Relationships: The Vertically Organized Brain.Here's the abstract from the article:This article reviews the vertical organization of the brain. The cortico-basal ganglia and the cerebro-cerebellar circuitry systems are described as fundamental to cognitive and behavioral control. The basal ganglia anticipate and guide implicitly learned behaviors on the basis of experienced reward outcomes. The cerebellar-cortical network antici- pates sensorimotor outcomes, allowing behaviors to be adapted across changing settings and across contexts. These vertically organized systems, operating together, represent the underpinning of cognitive control. The medial temporal lobe system, and its development, is also reviewed in order to better understand how brain systems interact fo both implicit and explicit cognitive controlTo read along, download the article here!See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.
