Mapping the Brain | Dr. Sergiu Pasca

The three-pound organ that is the human brain is the command center for our thoughts, feelings, memories, behaviors and motor skills. Yet so much about it is still a mystery. Dr. Sergiu Pasca has made it his life's work to understand how the brain builds itself. He's doing it by growing neural circuits in his lab at Stanford University. "The problem is that the human brain is, to a large extent, inaccessible...That's probably one of the main reasons why we have such a poor understanding of psychiatric disorders today," Pasca said in an interview with Full Frame host Mike Walter. Pasca's lab is trying to understand the underlying mechanisms that lead to neuropsychiatric diseases, including autism and schizophrenia. "By ultimately manipulating the cells and leveraging human genetics ... we'll be able to understand the biology of these conditions," he said. #neuroscience #features Watch CGTN LIVE on your computer, tablet or mobile https://cgtnamerica.vhx.tv/videos/hd-...
