Watching Emily is like watching a Ms. Frizzle prequel. At the end she gets a magic school bus and starts making bad puns. Also cells are neat.
Opaul Elven Ms Frizzle: the making
If there is ever a live action Magic School Bus, I will be quite disappointed if Emily is not cast as Miss Frizzle.
the mitochondria is the powerhouse of the cell
Holy crap she's even got the jewellery and outfits down. This needs to happen.
SEAT BELTS, EVERYONE
Whatever you're paying the editor that put that intro together, it's not enough.
As a medical student I can only agree that this is not only super cool but also immensely helpful in studying anatomy. My university has a similar collection and seeing the muscles nerves and so on in the flesh is so important for understanding
I would loooooooooooooooove this .They have a "real bodies" exhibition in Dublin and I was really excited to go until I found that the bodies were not ethically sourced, they were stolen from murdered political prisoners in China!
@@therabbithat Dear God!
Yep. These are far more useful than all the awful drawings and the like that (for me) never give any real sense of what's going on.
Congrats on trending!
SmarterEveryDay Thanks Destin!! Big deal for this channel!
SmarterEveryDay Destin brought me to this channel, when you did a collaboration
thebrainscoop , Any updates on The Brain Scoop podcast ? I'm way too keen for it, the colab with Destin and the NDQ podcast was amazing
Fingers crossed we'll be rollin' in October!
the museum of diseases
The fact that all of their specimens have donors intent is really great and really important. I remember seeing the "bodies revealed" traveling exhibit here in Michigan a few years back. Something about it seemed off, almost every single human specimen was obviously Asian, and quite short, unusual i thought, so i did some research. Almost all of the bodies where bought from China, some executed prisoners, many of the bodies with unknown origins. This left me quite disgusted. These people may be dead, but there was absolutely no consent from them or their families from what i could gather in research. Those people once had names and lives, and were being used for a for profit traveling show under the guise of "educational" not to mention being used for something that could have been done with plastic and molds if the intent was purely education. Fundamentally it was a carnival freak show using non-consenting human bodies bought by shady and ethically problematic means, but seeing real dead bodies sure brought in the crowds... Make no mistake, this particular "traveling show" was first and foremost motivated by profit.
Then to add insult to injury, the traveling show gave *absolutely 0 credit given to the Study of human anatomy medicine and science done in Ancient Asia. As far as the "educational" aspect of the exhibit was concerned there was ancient Greece, medieval Europe, then modern western science. I did research to investigate my suspicion, Of course not to downplay the importance of modern western science and medicine, but Asia also had a rich ancient history of human anatomy in-fact in China itself it seems human anatomy was being written down before ancient Greece. All the while the "educational exhibit" was using the bodies of all Asian people, while completely ignoring the history of anatomy and science in Asia.. Sorry for the rant, this has disgusted and bothered me for ages.
Edit: Just to be clear i have absolutely no problem with what they are doing in Denver as the specimens have *consent* this is fine, in-fact it's a fantastic and a super interesting educational tool, I hope to visit one day.
I should have known it was this dubious when thy would not allow me to take pictures because of copyrights.
I see the German desire to do something with bodies is still strong. (joke)
@@minirock000 We must be clear about this, 'Bodies revealed' is not the same corporation as the 'Body Worlds' exhibit run by Dr Gunther Von Hagens.Nor is it associated with The Institution of Plastination he founded. Whilst Dr Von Hagens is himself a controversial figure;
'In January 2004, the German news magazine Der Spiegel reported that von Hagens had acquired corpses of executed prisoners in China; von Hagens countered that he did not know the origin of the bodies, and returned seven disputed cadavers to China.'
To be fair, it doesn't really matter who was first if we're looking at the development of our understanding. So unless Chinese studies of anatomy led on through Greek and European ones, that isn't meaningful.
But yes. Bodies are objects owned by the person who inhabits them. Upon the death of the owner, objects should be treated as per the desires of the prior owner as best as possible, not bandied around and exploited for profit.
They ded chill tf out.
Thank you for highlighting this. That is totally disturbing, and on top of it the lack of credit to any science done in Asia? Really disgusting.
"Yup, it was a real human being"
Most people: eeeeeewwww get it away!!
Emily: OEEHH I WANNA TOUCH IT!
*(This is why we love Emily)*
the intro to this video is the best you've ever done, i loved that
They put out a video once a month and for this it's totally worth it.
I concur, although in a few bits "zany visual Emily" was distracting from "informative audio Emily".
Agreed; Emily's exuberant enthusiasm is just so contagious that it puts a big smile on my face each time i watch one of her videos :D
"We're going on a road trip!"
*immediately gets on an airplane*
The Intro, B-roll, all the production value in this is INCREDIBLE! I know it takes a ton more time but holy crap. Nice work! Also, the video is excellent.
ADG2988 elaborate on B Roll what is it?
@@OneBasedGod B roll is like footage that is secondary to your main footage.
It was probably edited my Michael Aranda, who also hosts Scishow and does some of the editing and sound design for Crash Course. He's amazing, and you should defs check out his personal vlog channel, WhatImDoingRightNow, has some of the most therapeutic and beautiful content and editing on the internet
just gotta say, I started watching brainscoop a few years before my college career began, and always had the utmost respect for Emily and her passion toward discovery and education. I have to admit, I've always had an interest in restoration ecology, but was nervous to head into the male-dominated world of science until I saw Em kicking ass and taking binomial nomenclature (names..? get it? i'lll stop). Now I'm just about a year away from graduation with a degree in environmental science with a bio emphasis, and I couldn't be happier. thank you thank you for what you do, brainscoop, and keep getting girls into science!
-
very interesting episode, it's possibly one of my favorites!
I've been subscribed to this channel for years and now I'm going to be a biology major! Thanks Emily for helping me realize that I love science!
Kylie Lanc Are you going for a general Biology major or are you thinking about a specific field?
Biology education, but I will have to pick another area to specialize in
Congrats! I did my undergrad in biology and loved all of it! I suspect you will too :)
Yay! Congrats fellow bio major! Welcome to the club❤
Kylie Lanc Congrats!
That intro is definitely a material for The Brain Scoop: The Movie (if it ever happens)
Also that museum looks so fun aaaaaah.
Franz Anthony it’s super fun I went and was there for hours!
4:49 These sliced samples are visually stunning. Wow!
I visited this museum when I visited Denver!! Took a pic with that stomping tyrannosaur! Sat in that IMAX theater! Didn't spend much time in the Health Sciences section-big museum, so much to see in so little time!
This was a great video, fun and educational, fantastic opening sequence. I want to do the sour study and be part of the collection!!
2:21
Skinned man: "Skeleton! Help me!"
Skeleton: "Long live the king."
💀
The health section was always one of my favorites as a kid. Love the Denver Museum so much. 💖💖
As a Denverite, you have no idea how happy this makes me!
Thank you for having us in your city!
thebrainscoop I also live in Denver. So excited to see the other videos. This one was great!
YAY!!!!!!
I am from Ireland but I learned some geography because now I know that Denver is 3.5 outfits away from Chicago
Me too!!
I AM JUMPING UP AND DOWN IN MY SEAT. OMG. THIS IS MY FAVOURITE THING EVER. This is my jam. I really really want to become a pathologist. I'm studying at uOttawa and I've been to the anatomy lab here but I've been to Queens' anatomy museum and it's very similar to what was show here.
so cool! I'm currently studying biology at Carleton (antibiotic resistance, not pathology) and I did my undergrad at Queen's (although I had no idea with had an anatomy museum...)! (anyway, I was excited to see someone else from Ottawa with a connection to Queen's)
Hey! Antibiotic resistance sounds so cool! Are you working with one of the hospitals or at one of the Carleton labs? How are you enjoying your work? I admit I haven't really been around Carleton much (past visiting a friend). I considered Queen's for my undergrad but uOttawa had better scholarship opportunities. I'm glad to see another person from Ottawa too!!
I work for a lab at on the Carleton campus. It's good, though! I love doing research (it's often very frustrating but satisfying once things start to work lol) and it's relevant stuff so people are actually interested (for my undergrad thesis I worked on fruit flies and no one really cared except other fruit fly researchers). Yeah, that's fair, there's not much going on around the Carleton campus, uOttawa is far more central. I loved my time at Queen's but I think for a lot of the sciences (outside of engineering), it's not the best option (especially for biology, unless you're at the med school or working with a specific researcher), so you probably made a good choice! Also a friend of mine has had some cool opportunities working at the hospital through uOttawa so it's probably great for you!
Yeah! I find that by living in the capital, we have a lot more job options, especially government jobs or government-funded research. Especially these days. I'm always on the edge about maybe doing research, and my undergrad has the choice between a research thesis or just finishing the credits...so idk. But I really want to jump into clinic volunteer work soon. And you are totally right! There are so many good hospital options, especially since uOttawa's med campus is at the General hospital. Patho has a lot of lab work related to it, normally, so I think it's a good option for people that kind of like the research but might want to be more practically clinical. Anyway, I do have to say that although uOttawa is really convenient and I prefer it, it has a lot of construction rn and Carleton is surrounded by some beautiful parks around it.
I did a research thesis with my undergrad and I loved it so I'd really recommend looking into it if you think you'd be interested (there's some really great PIs at uOttawa and you can also do research with someone at the hospital/medical campus which might be better suited for your interests). There's so many great options though (volunteering, research, etc), you can't really go wrong. But, yeah! Dow's Lake is especially really nice especially during Tulip Festival season and the experimental farm is cool.
God, I love this channel.
We love you too Shubham
Are you adventurous with food? I'll try any fruit or vegetable but aside from that I'd rather not, and I tend to end up eating the same stuff over and over.
Oh yeah. I've eaten bugs 'n stuff. I think growing up in South Dakota, which had ...fairly limited culinary influence outside of hot dish and potato salad, now that I live in a big diverse city I'm like
EAT ALL OF THE FOOD
This made my day 😄😄😄😄
I would love to see more of their collection, those pieces looked so amazing and so beautiful. That arm! Every touch that that person had with someone they love or something they made is there and it will be forever. This just makes me love the world we live in and the things it can do. Thank you Emily and everyone else!
I need that intro for my life.
This was amazing. I loved watching you get excited about human specimens and becoming part of the collection.
Thanks for being awesome. I always learn something new every time you put up a video, and the enthusiasm of Emily and all the guests is wonderful. :)
Forwarded this to all of my med school friends, they're going to get a kick out of this!
👍Wow!
🤔From now on I'll see the term "to lend somebody a hand" in a very different light.😉
This collection looks amazing. The longer-form episodes are looking great!
11/10 entertainment and 1000/10 informatinal
I'm always so psyched when you guys release new content; I can't wait for more! Thanks for the video
Gorgeous gorgeous video! Absolutely fantastic tour of the collection.
Great job Emily (and team)!!!
Was it just a coincidence that you made the "open chest"-sound from The Legend of Zelda??
12:39 Yeah my thoughts exactly.
WE DID IT -P!
That might have been the best part. Ok, not really, but that's because Emily knocked this one out of the park.
Knowing Emily it's probably not a coincidence :)
I've been watching your videos for a while and I'm super happy that you visited the Denver museum!! I love going to that museum and it never get old!
One of your best videos yet! Keep up the good work.
I love that I have been here from the start of your channel. you have grown so much your videos keep getting better and better!
I've really loved the last several videos. Some of you and your crew's best work ever.
AHHHHH!!!! This is my favorite museum, I'm so happy Emily went there! And I absolutely adore human biology, so everything about this episode just makes me so happy.
This was so well shot and full of interesting stuff. Awesome collaboration!
Emily always has the cutest dresses! And I love that the "it still has brains on it" sound byte is still used. I always have to watch to the end to hear it (not that I wouldn't watch to the end otherwise lol).
The taste test part of it was quite interesting to me, especially as an anosmiac. I've been telling people for years that taste is just a small part of the large "taste experience" that incorporates sight, texture, smell, taste buds, and sound. Amazing.
This is seriously so awesome. I'm so glad I found your channel!
That is so cool i was just there last weekend. My favorite part of the museum is that it is two old museums side by side then wrapped entirely by the current building. Love your show wish i would have seen you there that would have been a star struck fan boy moment for me
Your enthusiasm is as uplifting and adorable as ever, emily.
This is one of the best videos of the channel. Absolutely amazing.
I've been going to this museum since I was a super little kid, and regularly volunteer here. Emily, you're one of my biggest inspirations and it was so great to see you come here! Thanks for everything that you do, and I can't wait to see the next 2 episodes! Everything is dead.
The editing of this is beautiful.
Enjoyed the video as always! Very interesting. :D
This was wonderful! I loved the road trip portion and Emily becoming part of the collections.
Love the video Emily! So glad you got to meet the amazing people at the museum. We have done some behind the scenes there and it is world class!
This is a great exhibit here in Denver. Almost everything is super interactive and the climbing muscle dude in the beginning is one of their plastinated bodies on display.
Great video! I saw the plastinated arm and thought you guys might be showcasing the body worlds exhibit, but this video was still just as cool and interesting. If I could I'd love to travel to this museum to see this exhibit and participate in the research! Keep up the super fun educational work!
there is so much great stuff going on with this video and the science in it... but personally the biggest plus for me at the moment is that it's allowed me to put into words what i love about sticker charts/graphs
Hi! I am 25 years old and really had no idea why I wanted to do with my life. Between you(Emily) and Hank Green, I have been inspired and enlightened to the joys of Science and discovery. Thank you!
I love your show and all the fun facts you put out there. Keep up the great work 👍
This is such a fun video! Please do more collabs with other museums. It's so cool to see what different museums have and how they're similar or different from the Field. (also that's an awesome dress)
This museum was my childhood and it feels like home to me. ❤ I'm so happy it's being focused on because it's such a wonderful museum and I love it so much. I'm so happy you got to visit my home away from home, Emily! ❤
I LOVE that they're allowing people to become part of the collection and further research. I really want to visit now.
This entire video is so top tier. Excellent!
YES! Colorado native here and I love your videos! Wish I knew you were here!
THIS IS AMAZING! I'm so excited that Emily could take us here! Thank you
"You have an arm?"
"...Yes."
later
"We use them MOSTLY for education."
do they eat the ones they dont use for education?
*x-files theme song*
What an awesome collection, thanks for the video!
This is better quality programing than a lot of what's on TV now. Wow!
This is such a great series.
Oh man! So happy you came to visit Denver.
I would have loved to see some sort of meet up. You're super inspiring!
What an amazing collection!! I'd love to see this exhibit someday
This was such a good episode! I know it take much longer to make eps like this but imo they are worth the time! Much prefer one ep like this less often than loads of less produced ones :)
I love the Denver museum of nature and science! been going there since I was a kid and I always found this exhibit fascinating.
I love that she actually said "massage therapists"! Im an LMT and people often dont realize how important the understanding of anatomy, physiology and kinesiology is to our job. We learn very I'm depth anatomy (more than some nurses) because if we are wrong or dont have a full knowledge of the body we can do actual harm or cause serious injury. We need to know what's contraindicated, muscle/ligament/tendon origin, body, insertion and movement. Yet we are often overlooked in the health industry.
My children and I participated in the Sour study, too. It was super interesting. As homeschoolers, we are so thankful for the opportunities we have had at the Denver Museum of Nature and Science. :)
Great script as always. Fun and informative. Production jumped up a few notches on this video.
I enjoy your videos because of your wonder and enthusiasm. Had I a daughter, I’d have wanted her to be like you. Thanks for reminding us to keep learning. 😊👍🏻
I'm 24, but this kind of stuff on The Brain Scoop still sparks the same curiosity I had in grade school.
The editing on this channel deserves at least one oscar!! The content is awesome as well, have another oscar.
Loved this video so much - those human body slices are AMAZING, definitely want to see those in person! Can't wait to show my seven year old this video tonight!
Love this channel,,i will enjoy spend my time on the museum
Loved every minute of this
As always a terrifically presented and informative video. The opening was brilliant! I love the playfulness that it brought to perhaps a squeamish topic. Always look forward to what you bring to the screen.
This is so exciting! I went to the Denver Museum all the time as a kid, and that's the place that made me love science!
This channel is absolute wisdom! One my favorite videos so far. Guess because it's a theme that's close to my heart.
Interesting thing about children liking sour tastes, wonder if it's related to the fact they strongly rely on milk for their development, and maybe, just like with the lactase enzyme, one of the genes(probably a G-protein receptor on taste buds) is switched off as we get older.
I'm going to donate my body to science fiction.
One of my favourite episodes
I live just north of Denver and adore this museum!
that arm looked amazing :D and it's so satisfying to see how hyped up you are about being there! best channel on youtube ^_^
Really love the editing on this video well done.
loved your editing!!!
Ohhh my goodness... as soon as this video started i was like "i think i love her"
And omggggg i doo! You're so enjoyable to watch and absolutely lovely!
Also this is actually informative while being a joy to watch!
This is the kinda video I watch CZcams for. So good and interesting
As someone who lives in Denver and frequently flies to Chicago, the lack of a coherent timeline of the clips in the intro drove me crazy!
But the rest of the video was fantastic!
I really enjoyed the opening. And entertaining video as always.
Emily you have the best collection of dresses! This video was just fascinating.
Excellent video, very well made and Emily is such a fantastic presenter!
Great job Emily. I would love to live in a rare books room and I remember going to the Denver museum of science and nature back in the 1960's with my parents and aunt. One of the dioramas was so realistic, my younger sister tried to smell something and 'bang" hit her head on the glass. It was so clear and clean we couldn't see it. I still remember the museum and it's been probably 50 years ago when I was about 10.
I live in denver and it makes me so happy so see this, I love denver museum of nature and science and I'm ecstatic too see it on video
Your excitement is infectious. SCIENCE!
Yay DMNS! I'm so sad I couldn't see you when you came through Denver, but it looks like you had fun!
So much going on here! I really enjoyed that. Now I have another reason to want to travel up to Denver. Thanks Emily :)
Destin brought me here, and I loved your channel!!
Great Video, totally worth hit #40 in trending. Keep up the great work, I love the authentic nerdy.
Cool, lots of great info and I liked the fun video beginning as well.
I just went to the Body Exhibit at the Science Center in Downtown Los Angeles, and seeing tis video is kind of awesome. It's amazing to learn about the human body through these "plastinated" specimens.
As someone who was born and have lived in Colorado my whole life, I kinda took the whole human health sciences exhibits for granted. There are hundreds of entire human bodies on exhibit. All with those same plastination processes. Skeletons, skin, nervous system, circlulatory systems, muscles, digestive.
