Summary

Dr. Jordan B. Peterson and Andrew Huberman discuss neurology, the way humans and animals react to specific stimuli, and how this knowledge can be utilized for personal growth. Dr. Andrew Huberman is a neuroscientist, and tenured professor in the department of neurobiology at the Stanford University School of Medicine. He runs the Huberman Lab, which has made significant contributions to the fields of brain development, brain function and neural plasticity. Dr. Huberman’s most recent work revolves around the influence of vision and respiration on human performance and brain states such as fear and courage. In 2017, he was chosen to receive the Cogan award, which is awarded to the scientist making the most significant discoveries in the study of vision. Work from the Huberman Laboratory has been published in top journals including Nature, Science, and Cell and has been featured in TIME, BBC, Scientific American, Discover, and other top media outlets. In 2021, Dr. Huberman launched the Huberman Lab Podcast, and has since grown to over 1.5 million subscribers. ______________________________________________________________________ —Links— For Andrew Huberman Instagram https://www.instagram.com/hubermanlab/?hl=en Twitter https://twitter.com/hubermanlab?ref_src=twsrc%5Egoogle%7Ctwcamp%5Eserp%7Ctwgr%5Eauthor Website https://hubermanlab.com/ Youtube https://www.youtube.com/channel/UC2D2CMWXMOVWx7giW1n3LIg — Chapters — (0:00) Coming Up (0:57) Intro (3:18) Where anxiety stems from (11:57) Flipping the autonomic response (23:10) Power of the prefrontal cortex (30:00) Accessing our alternate selves (36:25) When you stimulate the Insular cortex (42:08) The one true world currency (46:38) Dopamine’s pleasure derives from anticipation (50:10) Depressive cascades (54:12) Assess errors by state, not trait (1:01:45) Dopamine chases outer stimuli (1:04:13) Can new stimuli rewrite our neural pathways?

0:00.0	Hello everyone, I'm pleased today to have with me Dr. Andrew D. Huberman. He's a neuroscientist
0:21.5	and tenured associate professor in the Department of Neurobiology at the Stanford University
0:26.8	School of Medicine. Dr. Huberman and his lab have made contributions to the brain development,
0:32.6	brain plasticity and neural regeneration and repair fields. His lab's work focuses on the
0:39.2	visual system, elucidating the nature of neural mechanisms controlling light mediated activation
0:46.0	of the circadian and autonomic arousal centers in the brain and mediating conscious vision
0:51.5	or site. His lab investigates how the brain works, how it changes through experience,
0:57.6	it's a field known as plasticity and how it repairs itself. He and his colleagues have
1:03.2	worked to discover strategies for halting and reversing vision loss in blinding diseases
1:09.4	and understanding how visual perceptions and autonomic arousal states are integrated
1:14.1	to impact behavioral responses. His lab employs a large range of state-of-the-art investigative
1:20.3	tools, virtual reality, gene therapy, anatomy, electrophysiology, and imaging and behavioral
1:26.6	analysis. In January 2021, Dr. Huberman launched the Huberman Lab podcast concentrating on
1:34.2	neuroscience and other scientific topics. It's done phenomenally well for a detailed
1:40.0	scientific podcast attracting 1.5 million subscribers. It's very good to see you today,
1:46.6	Dr. Huberman, and thank you for agreeing to talk with me. Delayed to be here. Your
1:51.0	first book, 12 Rules for Life, sits prominently on our bookshelf in our living room and we've
1:56.9	all read it and learned a tremendous amount from you over the years and certainly feel
2:02.6	a kinship because of the shared relationship between university professorship and public
2:07.0	education as well. Right, right, right. Yeah, well we've got lots in common. I'm particularly
2:12.5	interested in the neurological work that you've done on both anxiety and exploration, although
2:17.5	there's plenty of topics to talk about today and plenty of overlapping interests. But it's been
