  1. Dr. David Sinclair on Informational Theory of Aging, Nicotinamide Mononucleotide, Resveratrol & More

    ⏳ David A. Sinclair, PhD, is a professor in the Department of Genetics at Harvard Medical School and co-director of the Paul F. Glenn Center for the Biological Mechanisms of Aging. He is the co-founder of the journal Aging, where he serves as co-chief editor.

    Dr. Sinclair’s work focuses on understanding the mechanisms that drive human aging and identifying ways to slow or reverse aging’s effects. In particular, he has examined the role of sirtuins in disease and aging, with special emphasis on how sirtuin activity is modulated by compounds produced by the body as well as those consumed in the diet, such as resveratrol. His work has implications for human metabolism, mitochondrial and neurological health, and cancer.

    Dr. Sinclair obtained his doctoral degree in molecular genetics at the University of New South Wales, Sydney, in 1995. Since then, he has been the recipient of more than 25 prestigious honors and awards and in 2014 was named as one of TIME Magazine’s 100 most influential people in the world. Dr. Sinclair recently authored the book, Lifespan: Why We Age – and Why We Don’t Have To. https://www.simonandschuster.com/books/Lifespan/David-A-Sinclair/9781501191978

    In this episode, Dr. David Sinclair discusses exciting new findings in the field of aging research, with special emphasis on t…

  3. Nutrients For Brain Health & Performance | Huberman Lab Podcast #42

    This episode I describe science-supported nutrients for brain and performance (cognition) and for nervous system health generally.

    I describe 10 tools for this purpose, including specific amounts and sources for Omega-3 fatty acids which make up the "structural fat" of neurons (nerve cells) and allow them to function across our lifespan. I also review data on creatine, phosphatidylserine, anthocyanins, choline, glutamine and how they each impact brain function in healthy people seeking to reinforce and improve their cognition and in those combatting cognitive decline. I describe both food-based and supplement-based sources for these compounds, and their effective dose ranges based on peer-reviewed literature.

    Then I review the 3 factors: gut-brain signaling, perceived taste, and learned associations that combine with the metabolic and blood-sugar-elevating effects of food to determine what foods we seek and prefer. Amazingly, it’s not just about what tastes good to us. Next, I explore how we can leverage the neural circuits of learned food preference toward seeking and enjoying the right foods for brain health and performance. I also review new data on non-caloric sweeteners and why consuming them with glucose-elevating foods can be detrimental, in some cases rapidly leading to insulin dysregulati…

  4. Ramsey and Xiao discuss relationship advice??? Is it worth it to date modern women?

    Ramsey and Xiao discuss a relationship question sent in by a viewer: is it worth it to date modern women?

    And as usual, we dig way too deep into what it all means, as Xiao sports the traditional headdress of his people (don’t ask about it).

  5. Giulio Tononi - Why is Consciousness so Baffling?

    How does consciousness weave its magical web of inner awareness—appreciating music, enjoying art, feeling love? Even when all mental functions may be explained, the great mystery—what it ‘feels like’ inside—will likely remain. This is the ‘Hard Problem’ of consciousness. What could even count as a theory of consciousness, even in principle?

  9. Why your liver shots don’t KO anyone, and how much grip strength is enough?

    Why do some liver shots drop fighters immediately and some strikes that seem to land in the same place don’t do anything?

    And how do I improve my grip strength? How much grip strength do you actually need?

  10. How far can we scale up? Deep Learning’s Diminishing Returns (Article Review)

    #deeplearning #co2 #cost

    Deep Learning has achieved impressive results in the last years, not least due to the massive increases in computational power and data that has gone into these models. Scaling up currently promises to be a reliable way to create more performant systems, but how far can we go? This article explores the limits of exponential scaling in AI, and what people are doing to get around this problem

    OUTLINE: 0:00 - Intro & Overview 1:00 - Deep Learning at its limits 3:10 - The cost of overparameterization 5:40 - Extrapolating power usage and CO2 emissions 10:45 - We cannot just continue scaling up 13:25 - Current solution attempts 15:25 - Aside: ImageNet V2 17:50 - Are symbolic methods the way out?
