| 0:00.0 | Hey, everybody. Welcome to Health Theory. Today's guest is Dr. Andrew Huberman. He's a lab director and |
| 0:05.8 | professor of neuroscience at Stanford University, who has won numerous awards for his work, |
| 0:10.8 | including the Pew Biomedical Scholar Award and the McKnight Neuroscience Scholar Award. |
| 0:16.0 | He also serves on the editorial board of several prestigious journals, including current biology, the Journal |
| 0:21.7 | of Comparative Neurology, Cell Reports, and many, many others. |
| 0:26.2 | And welcome to the show, Dr. Hewden. |
| 0:28.4 | Thanks for having me. |
| 0:30.4 | I'm delighted to be here. |
| 0:32.4 | As I was saying before we started rolling, man, the brain neuroscience is my area of absolute fascination. This was |

| 0:44.4 | not knowing how to make anything in my life. This is in the late 90s. So people were debating |

| 1:16.6 | Yeah. Well, first of all, Carol's a wonderful colleague and friend. And so we've been doing |
| 1:21.8 | a bit of work on the neuroscience of growth mindset among other states of mind. So, you know, the study of neuroscience |
| 1:29.2 | is really about what the nervous system does. And amazingly enough, the nervous system is |
| 1:35.3 | responsible for everything that happens to us from the time that we're born until the time we |
| 1:40.2 | die. But that really boils down to only five things. The nervous system has the responsibility |
| 1:47.5 | of sensation, so sensing the physical events in the environment. We have these so-called receptors |
