Please join us for a morning meeting with up-to-date weekly BIONews.
That will be followed by two video presentations:
- A daily temperature rhythm in the human brain predicts survival after brain injury
by Nina M Rzechorzek, MRC Laboratory of Molecular Biology in Cambridge University
The profound sensitivity of neuronal function to temperature implies the brain should be isothermal, but observations from patients and non-human primates suggest significant spatiotemporal variation. We aimed to determine the clinical relevance of brain temperature in patients by establishing how much it varies in healthy adults. - Pain, Pleasure, and the Addictive Chase for Dopamine
by Anna Lembke, Professor of Psychiatry and Behavioral Sciences at Stanford University School of Medicine
Chief of the Stanford Addiction Medicine Dual Diagnosis ClinicAuthor of the best-selling book Dopamine Nation: Finding Balance in the Age of Indulgence, Stanford Psychiatry Professor Anna Lembke decodes complex neuroscience into applicable strategies that explain why the relentless pursuit of pleasure can lead to pain. An expert in treating addictions of all kinds, Dr. Lembke discusses the biology and psychology of why people become addicted to certain substances and behaviors and the key role that our dopamine levels play in creating addiction. Learn how conducting a dopamine fast can help curb our innate desire to overindulge, be it with drugs, alcohol, food, work, the Internet, or sex, and find contentment and connectedness by keeping dopamine in check.
