For 8-bit home computing fans, Thalamus is one of the great names of the late 80s and early 90s, publishing classics such as Creatures I & II, Hunters Moon, Hawkeye and Armalyte. When the company went bankrupt in the early 1990s, everyone thought the story was over - but the rights to the games were bought by former Commodore Format games writer Andy Roberts, and the company was reborn. This interview with Andy Roberts tells the full story of Thalamus's heyday, decline and return, including insights into the 80s/90s games industry, writing for Zzap64! and Commodore Format, publishing games in the early noughties and two of the latest games, Ceccanoid and Roguecraft. 

About Jason Reminick:Jason Reminick, MD, MBA, MS, is the CEO and Founder of Thalamus, a premier cloud-based interview management platform revolutionizing graduate medical education. A Stanford-trained physician with a distinguished academic record, Jason excels in both medicine and entrepreneurship. His innovative approach, highlighted by notable research and awards, bridges clinical practice with transformative technology. Rooted in humanistic values and fueled by relentless curiosity, he inspires future leaders in medicine and beyond, embodying a balanced blend of expertise and compassionate innovation today.Things You'll Learn:There are 8000 residency and fellowship programs in over 800 institutions that are utilizing Thalamus technology.Physician recruitment is expensive, with hospitals spending an average of $250,000 in direct costs per physician hired. It can take six months to fill a role. Because of those 6 months to fill a role, they can lose $2 million in clinical revenue.Hospitals are recruiting for their major league teams without knowing who they even have in their minor league systems.Medicare spends $16 billion a year to incentivize hospitals to train residents. Thus, retaining those doctors is more cost-effective than recruiting from the open market.Thalamus uses AI to standardize and normalize medical school grades, providing a more consistent basis for evaluation.Resources:Connect with and follow Jason Reminick on LinkedIn.Learn more about Thalamus on their LinkedIn and website.

In dieser Der Schmerzcode-Podcast-Folge tauchen Jan-Peer und Marco tief in die komplexe Welt des Schmerzes ein. Sie reflektieren über vergangene Informationen, betonen die Fortsetzung der Reise durch den Schmerz. Heute planen sie, die Signalumschaltung vom ersten zum zweiten Neuron im Rückenmark zu untersuchen und die Bahnen zu betrachten, die letztendlich zum Thalamus führen. Die Gastgeber diskutieren die komplexe Modulation des Schmerzsignals zwischen den Neuronen, heben schmerzhemmende Mechanismen hervor und tauchen tief in die Anatomie des Rückenmarks ein. Die Rolle der Interneurone, die das Schmerzsignal beeinflussen, wird erläutert, ebenso wie die Projektionsbahn im Rückenmark zum Thalamus. Jan-Peer und Marco diskutieren die sensorisch-diskriminativen Komponenten und affektiven Aspekte des Schmerzes sowie die Weiterleitung vegetativer Komponenten wie Schwitzen und Erbrechen über separate Bahnen im Rückenmark. Die komplexe Mechanik der Schmerzweiterleitung im Rückenmark wird betont und die Verarbeitung von Schmerzinformationen im Gehirn beleuchtet. Im weiteren Verlauf des Podcasts wird detailliert über die Verschaltungsebenen vom Rückenmark zum Mittelhirn gesprochen. Die schnelle Reaktion des Wegziehreflexes bei Schmerzreizen wird erklärt und Mechanismen der schmerzhemmenden Effekte sowie segmentale Schmerzhemmung auf spinaler Ebene werden diskutiert. Die Verarbeitung von Signalen im Gehirn zur Schmerzregulierung und -modulation wird erörtert, einschließlich der Bedeutung von Opiatrezeptoren und Neurotransmittern wie Serotonin und Noradrenalin. Therapeutische Ansätze wie Akupunktur, Kryotherapie und Taping, die auf der Stimulierung von Interneuronen basieren, werden beleuchtet. Die Interaktion verschiedener Neurotransmittertypen zur Regulierung von Schmerzsignalen wird beschrieben und potenzielle weitere Untersuchungen zu Mechanismen der Schmerzmodulation in zukünftigen Folgen angedeutet. Der Podcast schließt mit einem Ausblick auf kommende Folgen, in denen das dritte Neuron und die zentrale Schmerzmatrix behandelt werden sollen, sowie einer Betonung der Bedeutung von fundiertem Wissen bei der Schmerzdiagnose und -behandlung.

Settle in and grab your notebooks, you're in for a good one. We're joined by Maria Ruberto, director and founder of Salutegenics Psychology, who just happens to be Ryan and Josh's (ex) psychologist. Maria is the co-designer of Resilience First Aid, an internationally recognised two-day certification program, which teaches the neuroscience of resilience (Ryan took sooooo many notes). We discuss with Maria the relationship between biology and behaviour, and the six domains of resilience. Getting technical, we delve into the negatives of screen time (hello darkness our old friend) and the ridiculously positive benefits of doing stuff with other people. So join us as we get started on building our resilience toolbox, practice breathing like a baby AND co-regulate like it's no one's business.

Ob visuelle, akustische oder olfaktorische Reize - sie bombardieren uns rund um die Uhr. Diese Reizüberflutung hat nicht nur negative Auswirkungen auf unsere Gesundheit, sondern auch auf unsere Psyche. Die Auswirkungen der Reizüberflutung Die Reizüberflutung kann zu einer Reihe von gesundheitlichen Problemen führen.  Dazu gehören: Konzentrationsstörungen Schlafstörungen Kopfschmerzen Müdigkeit Bluthochdruck Herz-Kreislauf-Erkrankungen Depressionen Auch unsere Psyche wird von der Reizüberflutung belastet. Wir fühlen uns gestresst, überfordert und ängstlich. Wir können uns nicht mehr richtig konzentrieren und wir sind anfälliger für negative Emotionen. Die Ursachen der Reizüberflutung Die Reizüberflutung ist eine Folge unserer modernen Lebensweise. Wir sind ständig mit elektronischen Gerätenverbunden und wir sind ständiger Werbung ausgesetzt. Außerdem leben wir in einer immer komplexeren und schnelllebigen Welt. Die Rolle des Thalamus Unser Gehirn ist in der Lage, Reize auszuwählen, um sich nicht zu überlasten. Diese Selektionsfunktion wird vom Thalamus übernommen. Der Thalamus ist eine Struktur im Gehirn, die als "Tor zum Bewusstsein" bezeichnet wird. Er entscheidet, welche Reize in das Bewusstsein gelangen und welche nicht. Der Zusammenhang mit dem Buddhismus Der Buddhismus lehrt, dass wir die Ursache für unsere eigenen Erfahrungen sind. Unsere Gedanken, Worte und Taten bestimmen, was wir erleben. In Bezug auf die Reizüberflutung bedeutet dies, dass wir selbst dafür verantwortlich sind, wie viel Reizen wir uns aussetzen. Wenn wir uns bewusst sind, welche negativen Auswirkungen die Reizüberflutung haben kann, können wir Gegenmaßnahmen ergreifen. Praktische Tipps zur Bewältigung der Reizüberflutung Hier sind einige praktische Tipps, wie du die Reizüberflutung in deinem Leben reduzieren kannst: Reduziere deine Zeit vor Bildschirmen. Setze dir feste Zeiten für das Fernsehen, das Smartphone und den Computer. Lerne, zu meditieren. Meditation kann dir helfen, dich zu konzentrieren und deine Gedanken zu beobachten. Verbringe Zeit in der Natur. Die Natur kann dir helfen, dich zu entspannen und zu regenerieren. Sei achtsam. Achtsamkeit ist die Fähigkeit, im gegenwärtigen Moment zu sein und deine Gedanken und Gefühle zu beobachten, ohne sie zu bewerten. Wenn du diese Tipps befolgst, kannst du die Reizüberflutung in deinem Leben reduzieren und ein gesünderes und glücklicheres Leben führen. Die Bedeutung der Achtsamkeit Achtsamkeit ist eine wichtige Fähigkeit, um die Reizüberflutung in unserem Leben zu bewältigen. Achtsamkeit hilft uns, uns auf das Hier und Jetzt zu konzentrieren und unsere Gedanken und Gefühle zu beobachten, ohne sie zu bewerten. Wenn wir achtsam sind, sind wir weniger anfällig für negative Emotionen wie Stress, Angst und Wut. Wir sind auch besser in der Lage, Entscheidungen zu  treffen, die uns guttun. Fazit Die Reizüberflutung ist ein ernstzunehmendes Problem, das unsere Gesundheit und Psyche beeinträchtigen kann. Wir können die Reizüberflutung in unserem Leben reduzieren, indem wir unsere Zeit vor Bildschirmen reduzieren, meditieren, Zeit in der Natur verbringen und achtsam sind. Buddha sagte sinngemäß einmal: “Die Sinne sind wie Tore, durch die die Welt in uns eindringt. Wenn wir diese Tore öffnen und alles hereinlassen, was kommt, werden wir überwältigt und gestresst. Wenn wir die Tore jedoch schließen und nur das hereinlassen, was uns guttut, werden wir Frieden und Ruhe finden

I det är avsnittet ger neuropsykologen och universitetsläraren Åke Pålshammar en grundläggande beskrivning av hur hjärnan ser ut och vad de olika delarna i hjärnan har för uppgifter. Han inleder med att tala om storhjärnan, lillhjärnan och hjärnstammen för att sen fokusera på storhjärnans delar. De delar som nämns är de olika loberna (frontalloben, tinningloben, hjässloben och nackloben) samt Thalamus, amygdala , hippocampus och hypotalamus. Hosted on Acast.

What relationship fears lurk in the shadows of our minds, sending chills down our spines? Can the art of storytelling serve as both an outlet for our deepest relationship anxieties and a means of processing them? Might the eerie embrace of Halloween be the unlikely balm to soothe these fears?In this special Halloween episode, Effy and Jacqueline delve into the anatomy of fear and go for a chilling foray into the Haunted House of relationship horrors once again. This time crafted with the brave contributions of our listeners, each chamber of this frightful abode captures a distinct relationship dread, reimagined. As we traverse this auditory maze, we're plunged into visceral scenarios that resonate all too deeply, creating a tapestry of fear, fascination, and shared human experience. An immersive treat that's equal parts spine-tingling and soul-touching—just in time for Halloween.Here's a framework to come up with your own room:   What are you afraid of? being abandonedlosing myselfbeing trapped, etc.This will give you the theme of the room  What is a scenario that illustrates that fear? my partner will meet someone better than me and leavemy partner and children will need so much of me that I will lose myselfnon-monogamy is not an option and my partner is not interested in sex then I will never have sex again, etc.This will give you context for the room  What is a physical experience that can describe the feeling of fear? Think of it as a verb.FallingSinkingwalking on a tightropejumping from rock to rock over lavabeing pulled in all directionsShrinkinghanging off the side of a cliff, etc.That will give you the movement in the room that also will help your lister to empathize with your feelings. What helps you feel better? concentrating on all the unique things you bring to a relationshipasking your partner for validation when you feel insecurecreating guilt-free space to be on your own doing something you enjoy, etc.This will help you formulate your way out of the room.Support the showConnect with us on IG and more:Curious Fox @wearecuriousfoxesEffy Blue @coacheffyblueJacqueline Misla @jacquelinemisla Email us or send a voice memo: listening@wearecuriousfoxes.comJoin the conversation: fb.com/WeAreCuriousFoxes

In this conversation with Dr. Vanessa Milanese, we cover the importance of anatomy in neurosurgery and explore her intriguing work in both fields – and how they cross-informed one another. Vanessa is a functional neurosurgeon at A Beneficencia Portuguesa Hospital in São Paulo, Brazil and holds an adjunct assistant professorship of neurosurgery at Mayo Clinic in Jacksonville, Florida. We talk about her stellar work in combining her neurosurgical activity with anatomical work – which involves dissections of the white matter of postmortem brains using the Klingler's method. We will talk about the rare community of neurosurgeons involved in similar activities, world-wide and the big influence Dr. Al Rhoton had on the field and on Vanessa's career. We thoroughly enjoyed this conversation and learned a lot – and we hope you will enjoy it as much as we did! Thank you so much for tuning in!

Battlefield Acupuncture (BFA) is rapidly gaining recognition for its effectiveness in alleviating acute and chronic pain, as well as anxiety. When we heard Angel Jaap, CRNA speak about this at the AANA Spring Symposium, we wanted to bring her on to learn more about this alternative therapy. You'll understand why she wants more nurses to learn this protocol after you hear some of the applications and success stories she shares today.   For those that aren't familiar with BFA, patients undergo insertion of five auricular semi-permanent (ASP) needles to the following traditional ear acupuncture points bilaterally: Cingulate Gyrus, Thalamus, Omega 2, Point Zero and Shenmen. Angel learned about this over the past few years and has instituted a Pilot program through Whole Health within VISN 4 which allows RNs to perform BFA for veterans thereby increasing veterans access to this safe, effective pain management therapy.   You'll learn more about that and have a much better understanding of BFA after listening to our conversation during our trip to Hershey, Pennsylvania.   Here are some of the things you'll learn on this show: How therapeutic touch works and why it makes you feel the way it does. How BFA was developed and why the VA began incorporating this into patient care. What does a day at work look like for Angel? Angel shares a wonderful success story about treating a veteran and PTSD. The smaller needles used in BFA have been effective for people scared of needles.   Visit us online: http://beyondthemaskpodcast.com  Get the CE certificate here: https://beyondthemaskpodcast.com/wp-content/uploads/2020/04/Beyond-the-Mask-CE-Cert-FILLABLE.pdf

Link to bioRxiv paper: http://biorxiv.org/cgi/content/short/2023.07.22.550168v1?rss=1 Authors: Howell, A. M., Warrington, S., Fonteneau, C., Cho, Y., Sotiropoulos, S., Murray, J. D., Anticevic, A. Abstract: The thalamus is composed of functionally and structurally distinct nuclei. Previous studies have indicated that certain cortical areas may project across multiple thalamic nuclei, potentially allowing them to modulate distributed information flow. However, there is a lack of quantitative investigations into anatomical connectivity patterns within the thalamus. Consequently, it remains unknown if cortical areas exhibit differences in the spread of their thalamic connectivity patterns. To address this knowledge gap, we used diffusion magnetic resonance imaging (dMRI) to compute brain-wide probabilistic tractography using data from 828 healthy adults collected by the Human Connectome Project. Additionally, we examined post-mortem data from six macaque monkeys to assess cross-species generalizability. To measure the spatial spread of anatomical connectivity patterns within the thalamus, we developed an innovative framework that quantifies the spatial properties of each cortical area's within-thalamus connectivity patterns. We then leveraged resting-state, myelin, and human neural gene expression data to test if the spread of within-thalamus connectivity patterns varied along the cortical hierarchy. These results revealed two broad cortico-thalamic tractography motifs: 1) a sensorimotor cortical motif characterized by focal thalamic connections targeting posterolateral thalamus, which potentially supports fast, feed-forward information flow; and 2) an associative cortical motif characterized by diffuse thalamic connections targeting anteromedial thalamus, which potentially supports slower, feed-back information flow. These results were consistent among human subjects and were also observed in macaques, indicating generalizability. In summary, these findings demonstrate that sensorimotor and association cortical areas exhibit distinct spatial connectivity patterns within the thalamus, which may support functionally-distinct cortico-thalamic information transmission.

Link to bioRxiv paper: http://biorxiv.org/cgi/content/short/2023.07.13.547220v1?rss=1 Authors: Arias-Hervert, E. R., Birdsong, W. T. Abstract: Activation of opioid receptors in the anterior cingulate cortex (ACC) mediates aspects of analgesia induced by both exogenous and endogenous opioids. We have previously shown that opioids signaling disrupts both afferent excitatory and indirect inhibitory synaptic transmission from the medial thalamus (MThal) to the ACC, but the effects of endogenous opioids within this circuit remain poorly understood. The goal of the current study was to understand how the endogenous opioid, [Met]5-enkephalin (ME), modulates thalamic-driven excitatory and inhibitory synaptic transmission onto layer V pyramidal neurons in the ACC. We used pharmacology, brain slice electrophysiology and optogenetic stimulation to study opioid-mediated modulation of optically evoked glutamatergic and GABAergic transmission. The results revealed that ME inhibited both AMPA-mediated excitatory and GABA-mediated inhibitory synaptic transmission in the ACC. However, inhibitory transmission was more potently inhibited than excitatory transmission by ME. This preferential reduction in GABAA-mediated synaptic transmission was primarily due to the activation of delta opioid receptors by ME and resulted in a net disinhibition of MThal-ACC excitatory pathway. These results suggest that moderate concentrations of ME can lead to net excitation of ACC circuitry and that analgesia may be associated with disinhibition rather than inhibition of ACC subcircuits.

F., Skelly, M. J., Pleil, K. E. Abstract: The anterior and posterior subregions of the paraventricular thalamus (aPVT and pPVT, respectively) play unique roles in learned behaviors, from fear conditioning to alcohol/drug intake, potentially through differentially organized projections to limbic brain regions including the nucleus accumbens medial shell (mNAcSh). Here, we found that the aPVT projects broadly to the mNAcSh and that the aPVT-mNAcSh circuit encodes positive valence, such that in vivo manipulations of the circuit modulated both innately programmed and learned behavioral responses to positively and negatively valenced stimuli, particularly in females. Further, the endogenous activity of aPVT presynaptic terminals in the mNAcSh was greater in response to positively than negatively valenced stimuli, and the probability of synaptic glutamate release from aPVT neurons in the mNAcSh was higher in females than males. In contrast, we found that the pPVT-mNAcSh circuit encodes stimulus salience regardless of valence. While pPVT-mNAcSh circuit inhibition suppressed behavioral responses in both sexes, circuit activation increased behavioral responses to stimuli only in males. Our results point to circuit-specific stimulus feature encoding by parallel PVT-mNAcSh circuits that have sex-dependent biases in organization and function. Copy rights belong to original authors.

Abstract: Background The posterior intralaminar (PIL) complex of the thalamus is a multimodal nucleus that has been implicated in maternal behaviors and conspecific social behaviors in male and female rodents. Glutamatergic neurons are a major component of the PIL; however, their specific activity and role during social interactions has not yet been assessed. Methods We used immunohistochemistry for the immediate early gene c-fos as a proxy for neuronal activity in the PIL of mice exposed to a novel social stimulus, a novel object stimulus, or no stimulus. We then used fiber photometry to record neural activity of glutamatergic neurons in the PIL in real-time during social and non-social interactions. Finally, we used inhibitory DREADDs in glutamatergic PIL neurons and tested social preference and social habituation-dishabituation. Results We observed significantly more c-fos-positive cells in the PIL of mice exposed to social versus object or no stimuli. Neural activity of PIL glutamatergic neurons was increased when male and female mice were engaged in social interaction with a same-sex juvenile or opposite-sex adult, but not a toy mouse. Neural activity positively correlated with social investigation bout length and negatively correlated with chronological order of bouts. Social preference was unaffected by inhibition; however, inhibiting activity of glutamatergic neurons in the PIL delayed the time it took female mice to form social habituation. Conclusions Together these findings suggest that glutamatergic PIL neurons respond to social stimuli in both male and female mice and may regulate perceptual encoding of social information to facilitate recognition of social stimuli.

A neuroanatomical review of the thalamus. What is it, where is it, what does it do, what happens when it gets damaged, that sort of thing.    

The Thalamus is located just above the midbrain, and has a unique role in sensory processing. It plays a role in controlling motor signals, and regulating in our alertness. Its position in the very center of the brain also allows it to have nerve connections across the cerebral cortex, with its close proximity to the hippocampus, mammillary bodies, and fornix allowing the thalamus to play a role in our learning and memory. In this fast-facts episode, Edward reviews the Thalamus' form and function, as well as the key features that make us who we are.To create this episode, I used information provided by Torrico and Munakomi, 2021 in StatPearls through the NCBI Bookshelf, which can be found here:  https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/books/NBK542184/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.

In den Tiefen des Thalamus im Zwischenhirn befindet sich ein spezieller Ort: der Knotenpunkt eines neuronalen Netzwerkes, das die Motorik steuert. Hirnchirurgen stimulieren diesen Knotenpunkt mit Strom, um Bewegungsstörungen zu lindern. Das Verfahren heisst Tiefe Hirnstimulation. Francis Jacquaz aus Delémont lässt sich am Inselspital Bern operieren. In einem fünfstündigen Eingriff implantieren ihm die Chirurgen zwei Elektroden, zehn Zentimeter unterhalb der Schädeldecke in beide Hirnhälften. Die Elektroden erhalten später über eine Batterie in seiner Brust regelmässige Stromimpulse.

The whole process, which would shape the coming years of his life, was a huge mess. Interviews were canceled. Anxiety ran high. He remembers a fellow applicant whose car was lost in the storm. Desperate, the applicant took a cab to one interview, at a cost of $600. Reminick sought a better way, and the result was Thalamus. The platform organizes applicant information for residency programs, while facilitating the scheduling so applicants can arrange their interviews in as straightforward a matter as possible, mitigating stress and travel expenses alike. This, he tells host Dr. Rishi Desai, is just the beginning of Thalamus's vision for making the residency application process better for applicants, programs, and the medical profession as a whole. Tune in to hear about common misconceptions about a fast-changing residency recruitment process, how programs adapted to Covid, and why doctors should not be afraid to become entrepreneurs.  Mentioned in this episode: https://thalamusgme.com

In this episode we are joined by consultant neurologist Dr Thomas Chemmanam to discuss his approach to disorders of the thalamus. During the episode we discuss the clinical importance of the thalamus and the myriad ways thalamic disorders may present in clinical practice.

Mac Shine and I talk about Mac's recent intriguing opinion paper that may have radical implications for systems and clinical neuroscience. In it, the thalamus mediates between feed-forward type input from cerebellum, sensori nuclei and cortex one one hand and input from the basal ganglia that introduces an element of randomness. By projecting to the cortex in a specific manner, the thalamus can recruit these inputs to shape the attractor landscape of cortical activations. Mac develops this a theory from the cell- to the systems neuroscience level and hints at how Kahneman's system I and II levels of thinking fast and slow could be implemented in the brain. The theory radically extends and partly opposes existing concepts such as the thalamus as a mere relay station and the model of the basal ganglia for action selection proposed by Alexander, DeLong and Strick in 1989 – so there is vast potential of this becoming transformative for deep brain stimulation, as well.

Jason Reminick, MD, MBA, MS is the CEO & Founder of Thalamus, the premier cloud-based interview management platform designed for application to graduate medical education (GME) training programs.
