Neuroanatomy made ridiculously simple

University of California Associate Professor Dr. Kia Shahlaie provides a fun and informative lecture the basics of neuroanatomy. Dr. Shahlaie is a fellowship trained neurosurgeon who specializes in skull base surgery and functional neurosurgery.

Finished medical school half a year ago and would recommend everyone studying to really focus on learning information that is clinically relevant. Talk to doctors, e.g. during your hospital stays, and ask them for what is the highest yield information. Passing your exams is one thing, but really you want to focus on what is mostly relevant for your future work as a doctor. Always try to tie the information to some patient case. Best of luck.

[@omarh8731]

Thank you kind sir, this is invaluable, but it's tough when you just wanna pass in the first place like you mentioned haha

[@imakemusique]

@@omarh8731 I can relate to that haha I would say it comes down to planning before you start a subject and ask certain questions: Why am I learning this? How can I use this information later? What is the most important information? Learning the fundamentals, breaking the information down into small pieces. Then you can connect dots to other subjects. Anyways, best of luck!

[@omarh8731]

@@imakemusique Thank you ever so much for these points. i always find them wonderful. but easy to lose track of, would you happen to know how i can remind myself of these true objectives.. hmm. i just got an idea. to write down those objectives you mentioned on a piece of paper then write down some things after i finished the lesson. perhaps that might do the trick? I know im asking alot but ive really struggled and continue to do so unfortunately. so any help is definetly appreciated . thank you ever so much yet again

I'd fail if I focused on clinical information, our exams are ultra hard.

I think "ridiculously simple" is supposed to say more about how complex the brain is than how easy it should be to understand the lecture haha, but I'm sure he meant to imply that it would be easy as a joke.

THANK YOU SOO MUCH. I discovered I have what appears to be a tuber cinereum hamartoma earlier this year. I am 37 years old and have been having a hell of a time finding any doctors that know anything about them. Not to mention all the other specialists who can not figure out why I am having the issues I'm having across multiple different systems. This was super informative and helpful! Thank you!!! ❤️

[@antnfs]

He said that 10 of the Cranial Nerves emerge from the brainstem (which I assume excludes the Olfactory and Optic nerves CN I & II), which is fine if you include the upper cervical levels of the spinal cord where CNXI emerges as part of the brainstem. Like he said he’s going for oversimplification

There is a reason why people say that brain science isn't easy.

[@SupaBlank]

i know this sounds like a ridiculous concept but in the future what if people were to volunteer to have "clear caps" and be under paid study of how to brain visually reacts to certain stimuli, as well as actively measuring beta,delta,theta,ect brainwaves. it would be indeed a scary change to have your brain exposed for all to see but having the outer shell would protect as a skull would, it would be safe and provide a greater understanding of a living human mind, sounds like something from Frankenstein, but i would volunteer. For the new crowd RGB skull ?

[@tygrunge]

I hope they are not "under paid" hahah just a joke

[@djmatster]

The brain doesn't 'visually react'. Alterations in reactions are observed as changes in sensation or function or perception, not visually appreciable alterations. Any 'clear skull cap' would be aesthetic, not medically useful as a research tool. There may be use as a tool to monitor certain conditions, but the most interesting part of the brain isn't it's structure, but what it is doing neuro-chemically and electrically. Much like a computer: pretty and complicated hardware which isn't visually changing while inside it may be doing extraordinary things.
