Video Description: Sebastian Seung is mapping a massively ambitious new model of the brain that focuses on the connections between each neuron. He calls it our “connectome,” and it’s as individual as our genome — and understanding it could open a new way to understand our brains and our minds.
Discussion Directions: In your response, discuss your thoughts on what Seung is describing. Summarize his key points. What are strengths/limitations of his findings? How do you feel about his statements? Do you agree or disagree with his view?
Note: Your initial post must be at least 300 words in length. Post must be several sentences in length to be considered for credit. Support your points with information from the textbook or external educational sources. Be sure to cite your sources in APA formatting.

Please watch the video titled: You can grow new brain cells, here’s how (Links to an external site.)
Video Description: Can we, as adults, grow new neurons? Neuroscientist Sandrine Thuret says that we can, and she offers research and practical advice on how we can help our brains better perform neurogenesis—improving mood, increasing memory formation and preventing the decline associated with aging along the way.
Discussion Directions: After reviewing the reading materials for the week and viewing our TedTalk on neurogenesis, what are your thoughts on the concepts presented by the speaker? What do you presently do that fosters neurogenesis for you? What are some things you or your loved ones might have to change to increased the rate at which neurogenesis takes place for you?
