This comment is for Huberman in general not necessarily this episode in particular. I just wanted to express the admiration and gratitude I have for this channel. Personally I experienced depression in my youth that was life threatening to say the least, I say that to illustrate how much of a change you’ve made to my life. Through years of therapy and changes to my health, many MANY of which were inspired by you, I am the happiest person I know. In face people come to be regularly asking for advice on mental and physical health and I recommend your work so much it’s become a bit of a joke in my circle how much I advertise for you. What’s more admirable to me is not that you have made vast improvements to my life and secondly to those around me, but how much of a change you have on the rest of the world. Mental and physical health is such a hard beast to conquer but it’s so important, probably the most important thing we will ever do. And you, Dr.Huberman, have done more to positively impact the world than any else I’ve ever seen. You share rigorously scientific information that is trust worthy, articulated in a way that makes sense, tools that are beyond useful and you do it for free and on such a vast scale. I cannot imagine a more fulfilling life than that and I hope to one day be just like you.

01:50 🤔 Chichilnisky describes his unconventional career path, emphasizing the importance of exploring diverse interests and experiences. 09:11 🎯 Chichilnisky discusses the significance of focusing on the retina for understanding vision, highlighting the potential for engineering solutions to restore sight. 15:40 📸 Explanation of how the retina processes visual information, likening it to Photoshop filters or different movies, showcasing the complexity of human vision. 17:44 🦌 Comparison of human vision with other species, illustrating the unique features of the human neuro retina and its limitations in perceiving certain aspects of the visual world. 20:29 🌈 Humans perceive color based on three primary colors, while other animals can capture more wavelength information. 21:51 🦉 Rodents possess retinal cells sensitive to looming shadows, helping them avoid bird attacks, showcasing how different species have unique visual needs. 23:11 🧪 Research on retinal cells involves intensive experiments, especially when studying human retinas obtained from deceased donors, requiring swift action to preserve tissue viability. 26:15 🏥 Human retinas are obtained from organ donors shortly after death, allowing for crucial research into vision and retinal function. 27:26 🧠 Sophisticated electrophysiology equipment is used to study retinal ganglion cells, enabling simultaneous recording and stimulation to understand their electrical activity. 29:44 ⚡ Electrical stimulation of retinal cells is explored for potential vision restoration methods, demonstrating the intersection of research and practical applications. 31:22 🧬 Understanding retinal ganglion cell types is crucial, as they encode various features of the visual world, aiding in detecting motion, color, and other visual stimuli. 32:17 🧠 Cell types are fundamental in neuroscience, influencing our understanding of brain function, consciousness, and neural circuitry. 34:34 📊 Cell types in the retina are identified based on their function, morphology, gene expression, and electrical properties, essential for interpreting retinal signals accurately. 37:36 🎨 Visual stimuli used in experiments range from controlled patterns to random flickering images, allowing researchers to uncover responses from different retinal cell types. 40:47 🧠 The retina responds to transitions in the visual scene rather than static imagery, and studying naturalistic visual stimuli is crucial for understanding its function. 42:53 🤔 There are about 20 different cell types in the retina, but only seven are well-characterized, with another 15 still largely unknown, highlighting the ongoing mysteries in retinal research. 46:07 🧬 Recent breakthroughs have identified around 15 new cell types in the retina, each with unique properties and responses to visual stimuli, expanding our understanding of retinal circuitry. 51:41 🔬 Neuroengineering aims to restore vision by bypassing damaged photoreceptor cells and directly stimulating retinal ganglion cells, potentially offering solutions for vision restoration in conditions like macular degeneration and retinitis pigmentosa. 53:57 💡 Existing retinal implants lack sophistication and fail to replicate naturalistic vision due to their crude stimulation methods, highlighting the need for more advanced devices that consider the complex circuitry of the retina. 57:49 🛠 Incorporating scientific knowledge into neuroengineering efforts for vision restoration is crucial, as current retinal implants do not reflect decades of research on retinal function and cell types, highlighting the gap between research findings and practical applications. 01:00:21 🧠 Building a robotic retina or artificial retina could fundamentally change vision, enhancing sight or enabling new visual abilities. 01:04:46 🧬 Researching parallel visual pathways in the retina could lead to the development of devices for streaming diverse visual information simultaneously to enhance human vision. 01:05:39 🤖 The artificial retina implant, designed to restore vision, can also serve as a research tool to explore how the brain receives and processes visual information, potentially leading to new visual sensations and abilities. 01:09:55 🔬 Neuroengineering aims to augment neural function through precise stimulation of brain regions, starting with the retina due to its well-understood structure and cell types. 01:17:15 💡 Developing adaptive electronics that can understand and interact with neural circuits, possibly utilizing AI and machine

Dr Huberman, last year I read an article in The Times (UK) about your work generally and this podcast in particular. As someone with serious neurological issues (MS) and severe eye problems, some resulting from MS but some as a result of chronic uveitis. (go me and my interesting ailments), your work was of particular interest. Consequently I've tuned into your podcasts ever since . My dentist thanks you by the way (he says no to mouthwash too). But this episode got me really excited. Although the loss of sight in my left eye relates to atrophy in my optic nerve, this has been a very interesting episode. Knowing that there are clever people out there, working hard to understand how we 'see' and how we might be able to restore vision to the blind is mind blowing. Of all the health issues that affect me (and there are many) losing my sight in one eye has been devastating. Each day I'm thankful for my remaining sight and pray that it remains as long as possible. Thank you Dr E J Chichilnisky and huge thanks Dr Huberman - the work you do through this podcast means more than you can imagine.

I've been listening for a couple of years now I'd say... definitely a big fan. I've never felt the need to comment; I figure you get lots and probably most bases are covered. Near the end of this episode though, the more personal conversation between the two of you caught me. Yes, the facts and research being done by E.J. is fascinating and the science riveting.. but the interpersonal discussion/connection you shared about the experiences that only come occasionally, if we are lucky, or perhaps more often if we are in a place to be able to really be open to it... where exceptional beauty takes your breath away... Or meeting a person with such amazing energy that is so captivating and can make one feel so alive... or the feeling that comes when one just *knows* within that a path is the right one and the ease that brings... I appreciated that. It's something about the human connection. The richness. And you're right; I guess science cannot explain that. I helped me to feel more connected to you both as well as myself.. Thanks.

Wow. I love so many things about this podcast episode.. and have a number of questions after listening! It ties together many aspects that have made this a powerful resource for me: the love for science, the cutting edge of science, understand ourselves as humans and also looking to what we can become/how we can grow, a strong spirit of curiosity and wonder, reminders and the pursuit to "know thy self", a deep passion for giving to the world, and coming back to simple and grounded techniques and tools... Finding this podcast is like finding the thing I always wanted to give but didn't imagine was possible. It is a huge inspiration. Questions: 1. I love how you highlight here and elsewhere that people don't always take the standard pathway to find where they thrive/have found a sense of purpose. Since discovering this podcast, I'm feeling a deep pull to question how I can get back to my love for science and research (I had this as a kid and fell in love with biology in my undergrad but went in [many] other directions). Are there ways to get involved with labs/research happening other than going back to university for post grad? Especially research involving things like brain-computer interfaces, dreams, fear, meditation, breath, states of consciousness... I know your premium channel supports a lot of research work done on humans, so are there ways to start working with those organizations? 2. It is mind blowing to think about how sight works - especially that it is all getting converted to electrical signals... I have often wondered about the science behind visual illusions and visual hallucinations. For example, I wonder why in states of meditation, if my eyes are open (gazing at a candle for instance), I start to see visual changes - there is a darkening of the room, features change that are not physically changing which stop if I break the state/focus... Hard to explain in words. 1. Could you explain how these types of experiences work especially given all the context here in this episode? 2. And more specifically for visuals that come with psychedelics, is that acting on the retina directly? Or is the drug creating a signal directly to the brain? It makes me wonder what would happen if you put the active substance of psilocybin for example directly on the retina.. I probably don't know enough about either to be suggesting that, but I'm fascinated what we would discover (and see!). 3. As to the cutting edge.. It is exciting to see the advancements in AI and neuroscience. I wonder about how incorporating machines into our brain/body might have second order effects and if/how we could get ahead of the curve to prevent negative impacts from the start. For example how could we have developed smart phones/wif/etc differently if we knew that the EMFs from phones can be detrimental to some aspects of our body? Is this something you think about? And if so, could you share some of your concerns and ideas and questions so that perhaps people in these areas of research and development can take more consideration along these line? How can we better ensure we design these types of machines/technologies with the future in mind? PS - I love how your podcast doesn't just focus on the information, but also the people. I love hearing how these scientists and successful/amazing people (yourself included) are interested in so many of the things I am interested in (yoga, meditation, exercise, love for tea/coffee, how to "know thy self", etc) and also struggle with so many of the things I do. I feel more connected to myself and others through this podcast. Thank you for creating that sense of togetherness. Thank you for your interest in humanity Dr Huberman!

Dr Huberman, first and foremost I wanted to thank you for the awesome content you share and the respect and professionalism you bring to your audience. I had a unique and bizarre (for me) moment in military basic training: We were always told to hold military bearing, one of those aspects is to stand at parade rest when speaking to a drill sergeant. In parade rest you are not allowed to do any kind of movement that isn't your mouth when you speak. There was an instance where I ran into a drill sergeant and they were asking me about my whereabouts and why, I'm standing at parade rest (feet shoulder width apart, hands behind my back), but I'm bobbing my head in the direction I'm going and the drill sergeant immediately yells at me and tells me to stop moving my head, and like magic my brain went completely blank. I froze. Eventually I recovered my thoughts and was able to explain myself. Would love to hear the mechanisms behind this phenomena.

I went 3 years with half of my retina detached. I went to my regular eye doctor 15 times or more and a neurologist because of the loss of my eyesight and hearing my loss was suddenly. They didn’t catch it so I had no choice but to find a new I eye doctor and he knew right away something was wrong. My eyesight is now ok but my left eye doesn’t work without my right eye now. I had to have two cataract surgeries my photoreceptors are damaged and I have scar tissue where my retina was reattached. It was a horrible experience. I had no idea what the retina’s function was.

Interesting interview. Suggestion: would you do a deep dive into hearing research? Just as important as vision is hearing. Hearing makes social connection possible. There is isolation and loneliness due to age related deafness. Loss of hearing is related to dementia. I think it also plays a role in early emotional development since there seems to be more behavioral disturbances in deaf children compared to blind children. Finally, keep up the good work! I now look forward to Mondays to listen to your KZitem channel.

Hello Andrew, I've been listening to your podcast through spotify for the recent days at work and I really appreciate your work. You asked for suggestions for future episodes and since I've been diagnosed with essential tremor and you have alot of knowledge in that area, could you cover tremors and if it's possible to treat them to make the effect lighter, in one of your future episodes?

You talk about a 'behold moment'----i think Awe is the word you are looking for here. A beauty and almost miraculous nature when looking at the retina. Amazing, i feel that too when i look at retinas as a vision science researcher.

I have been desperately trying to recover my left visual field for the past 18 years after having surgery for an AVM. Much of my right occipital lobe was removed. I have learned to function at a high level and most people have no clue that I see nothing on my left side.

Dr. Huberman, Would love an episode on pregnancy and breastfeeding. More specifically, the changes that occur in the body when pregnant and nursing in regards to the brain and hormones and how this might affect quality of life and behaviors. In addition to this, if/how hormones in men change when their partners are going through pregnancy, childbirth, and breastfeeding.

Hi Dr Andrew! Your podcast is always a treat to hear. This interview was amazing. Do you know any experts on hearing and that connection to the brain? Certain sounds elicit immense sensations (like voices, as yours makes me feel calm or certain sounds cause a happy tickling feeling in my brain…) I have always been curious about this! Also regarding ECT, we use muscle paralytics (after giving the sedative anesthetic) and only allow a foot to convulse (to confirm the correct amount of energy and timing of seizure), so no straps necessary!The level of energy is equivalent to 1/100 of a triple A battery, so very mild! What you perceive would be a potential system to regulate supplements/vitamins would be an interesting episode! Good night, and Thank you for all the work you do and friends you’ve made.
