Common Rounds episodes
- Neuro 23 - The first 6 Cranial Nerves
A very merry Christmas to everyone. As dictated by our schedule, we release this podcast but hope that you are enjoying the holiday as much as we have enjoyed doing the Common Rounds this year. We talk about Cranial Nerves I to VI, responsible for the movements of the eye, the massive Trigeminal nerve and the nerve for transmitting information on smell.
13 min - Neuro 22 - Overview of the Cranial Nerves
Before we talk about each cranial nerve in juicy detail, we pour some formalin onto all of them and dissect them for a brief discussion about them and their functions.
8 min - Neuro 21 - The Reticular Formation
After the brainstem, we talk about our understanding of the reticular formation and its purported role in human beings.
8 min - Neuro 20 - Overview of the Brainstem
Continuing on; we discuss the circuitry and connections in the brainstem, and the functions these pathways carry.
14 min - Neuro 19 - Cerebellar Input and Output Pathways
Continuing on; we discuss the circuitry and connections in the cerebellum, and the functions these pathways carry.
15 min - Neuro 18 - Introduction to the Cerebellum
After our special talk we return to the brain where we discuss the cerebellum and it's functions.
12 min - DrTalks - Virology with Dr. Tscharke
For the 100th episode of the podcast, we had the chance to sit down and talk to a virology professor at the ANU. "Tall Poppy" David Tscharke teaches the subject at the university and his spirited understanding spills into his avidity towards disseminating knowledge to his students, which can be extrapolated from this talk, where we talked about everything. From the basics of what viruses are, to their influence towards human evolution. As he says at the end of the podcast: feel free to challenge or ask questions on this subject! I actually hope that I could have another talk with this delightful scholar.
1 hr 10 min - Neuro 17 - Pathways of the Basal Ganglia
Following the previous talk, we discuss the circuitry in the brain that are responsible for the functions of the basal ganglia. This is also our 99th episode so yay.
12 min - Neuro 16 - Introduction to the Basal Ganglia
Today, we talk about the isolated nuclei within the Cerebrum, where pathology can result in disorders such as seen in Parkinson's Disease.
7 min - Neuro 15 - Thalamus, Hypothalamus and Pituitary
This time, we discuss the structures within the diencephalon, and the role they play in signal transmission to higher centres and their role in homeostasis.
