Basal Ganglia

Garry Nolan: UFOs and Aliens | Lex Fridman Podcast #262

Lex Fridman

A part of the brain initially thought to be involved solely in motor control, but later suggested to be involved in higher intelligence, intuition, and planning, and found to have enriched patches in some UAP experiencers.

Science-Based Mental Training & Visualization for Improved Learning

Andrew Huberman

Subcortical brain structures strongly involved in Go versus No-Go tasks and learning, which are critical for motor control and decision-making.

The Science of Setting & Achieving Goals

Andrew Huberman

A neural circuit primarily responsible for initiating and preventing actions, containing 'go' and 'no-go' circuits essential for goal pursuit.

The Science of Making & Breaking Habits

Andrew Huberman

A set of neural circuits in the brain involved in action execution (go) and action suppression (no-go), central to task-bracketing and habit formation.

Your Brain's Logic & Function | Dr. David Berson

Andrew Huberman

An area deep in the forebrain, intertwined with the cerebral cortex, responsible for 'go' commands (executing behaviors) and 'no-go' commands (withholding behaviors).

The Effects of Cannabis (Marijuana) on the Brain & Body

Andrew Huberman

Brain areas involved in action planning and withholding action (go/no-go circuitry), impacted by cannabis, leading to reduced physical mobility.

Biology & Treatments for Compulsive Eating & Behaviors | Dr. Casey Halpern

Andrew Huberman

Subcortical brain structures (caudate, putamen, dorsal striatum) implicated in OCD, interconnected with the ventral striatum.

How to Set & Achieve Goals | Huberman Lab Essentials

Andrew Huberman

A neural circuit with 'go' and 'no-go' circuits, responsible for initiating and preventing action.

How to Improve at Learning Using Neuroscience & AI | Dr. Terry Sejnowski

Andrew Huberman

A subcortical brain region responsible for learning sequences of actions to achieve a goal, interacting with the prefrontal cortex for thinking.

Is the brain a computer?

Sabine Hossenfelder

Brain regions involved in motor memory.

Tools to Enhance Working Memory & Attention

Andrew Huberman

A brain structure involved in movement generation, stopping movement, and task switching, with its function being dependent on dopamine projections in relation to working memory.
