  • David C. Van Essen is the Alumni Endowed Professor in the Anatomy & Neurobiology Department at Washington University in St. Louis. He has pioneered the use of surface-based analysis methods to characterize the structure, function, development, and connectivity of the cerebral cortex. He is Principal Investigator for the NIH Human Connectome Project, a large-scale effort to map brain circuitry and its relationship to behavior in healthy adults. His physiological and anatomical studies have provided deep insights into cortical functional organization. He has served as Editor-in-Chief of the Journal of Neuroscience, President of the Society for Neuroscience, and Head of the Anatomy & Neurobiology Department for 20 years. He is a fellow of the AAAS and received the Raven Lifetime Achievement Award from the St. Louis Academy of Sciences and the Krieg Cortical Discoverer Award from the Cajal Club.
    In the spirit of ideas worth spreading, TEDx is a program of local, self-organized events that bring people together to share a TED-like experience. At a TEDx event, TEDTalks video and live speakers combine to spark deep discussion and connection in a small group. These local, self-organized events are branded TEDx, where x = independently organized TED event. The TED Conference provides general guidance for the TEDx program, but individual TEDx events are self-organized.* (*Subject to certain rules and regulations)
    

On January 18, 2013, Caltech hosted TEDxCaltech: The Brain, a forward-looking celebration of humankind's quest to understand the brain, by exploring the past, present and future of neuroscience. Visit TEDxCaltech.com for more details.

    How can we get/buy the cognition maps you talk of in beginning?

    Reductionism vs. Holism ......Reductionism with Holism......
    You can disassemble a radio to understand how it works yet you can't understand the beautiful music it plays.

    this is like trying to find the passwords of a program by looking at the motherboard of pc using thermal microscobe without knowing anything about software used :D still good way to begin anyway. but its just the beginning.and its old slow way of doing research. there is also faster technicues for researching complex things.

      My analogy for this was always that it's like trying to get on the internet by looking at the flickering lights on the modem. But yours is good too :)

      I think we can reverse engineer the human brain with the help of neuralink's brain machine interface.

    how can i get to research this?? (i'm in university)

      +lucyhime555 This field is technically Neuroscience. However modern science, especially neuroscience does not happen through one field but rather is very interdisciplinary. You can approach this research from a number of way, you can go into neuroscience for it, mathematics, computer science or molecular biology. These are just some of the examples. The best combination that i have found in neuroscience + computer science.

      We need more advanced measuring tools. Ideally nanotechnology could be brought to bear and give realtime synapse data as test subjects are presented with different stimulus.

    Great information about Brain Function ......!.💚 thanks

    This project will increases of our understanding of the Brain in physiologic and disease status ? or is just another nice pictures of the Brain.

    I seem to have missed the part where you demonstrate a single brain circuit affecting/causing a single behavior. Nice mapping of the brain though.

    too bad hes reading it all. it just isnt as effective if it isnt natural
