114: The Mathematics of Biology & COVID-19 | KIT YATES

Maths is an unloved subject. It’s a commonplace view that maths is hard, that maths is abstract and removed from everyday concerns. Why do you think that is?In today’s society, mathematics underpins almost everything we do. It is vital to the ways in which we communicate with each other and the methods we use to navigate from place to place. It has completely altered how we buy and sell and it has revolutionised the manner in which we work and relax. Its influence can be felt in almost every courtroom and every hospital ward, in every office and every home. Maths might even explain why time seems to speed up as we get older.Kit Yates is a Senior Lecturer in the Department of Mathematical Sciences and co-director of the Centre for Mathematical Biology at the University of Bath. He completed his PhD in mathematics at the University of Oxford in 2011. His research demonstrates that mathematics can be used to describe all sorts of real-world phenomena: from embryo formation to locust swarming and from sleeping sickness to egg-shell patterning. In this episodes we go through 7 mathematical principles of life: 1. Thinking Exponentially2. Sensitivity, Specificity, and Second Opinions3. The Laws of Mathematics4. Don’t Believe the Truth5.Wrong Place, Wrong Time6.

For the first part of the episode we took a hook and focused it on COVID-19. David explains what the virus is, what the latest research n the virus is and how we can build our immunity to protect ourselves against it. Then on the back on the the podcast we go into depth with the raging process. David Sinclair believes that not only can we slow aging down, we can actually reverse it. David explains the three levels of aging, and what can be done on each level. He describes the lifestyle changes that slow aging down, the drug treatments that begin to stop aging, and experimental new procedures that may actually reverse aging once they are fully developed.Search for more advice on COVID-19 here: https://www.cdc.gov/FOLLOW DAVID: WEBSITE: www.lifespanbook.com INSTAGRAM: https://bit.ly/2kPvLjFFACEBOOK: https://bit.ly/2mcAPiqThe Neuro Athletics Newsletter Instagram: @louisanicola_Twitter : @louisanicola_YouTube: @Louisa NicolaThe Neuro Experience Podcast is proud to have hosted: Dr Andrew Huberman, Dr Gabrielle Lyon, Dr Layne Norton, Thomas DeLauer, Shawn Stevenson, Dr. Rocio Salas-Whalen, Saad Alam, Uma Naidoo, Dr. Lanna Cheuck, Angela Lee Pucci, Jillian Turecki, Dr. Jordan Feigenbaum, Dr. Darren Candow, Dr. Sue Varma, Evy Poumpouras, Dr Casey Means, Renee Deehan, Dr Chris Palmer, Dr Charles Brenner, Dr Joe Zundell, Dr Ray Dorsy, Dr Dale Bredeson, Dr. Ben Bikman Learn more about your ad choices.

112: Marathons, Failure, Health and Success | Selena Samuela from Peloton

In 2010, the Cincinnati research agency AcuPoll found that as many as 95% of new products introduced each year fail. According to the researcher Richard Wiseman, 88% of all new year’s resolutions don’t last. Eight out of ten entrepreneurs who start businesses fail within the first 18 months according to Bloomburg..It's a scary statistic to live by but thankfully our guest today is here to talk to us about breaking down the barriers that we have in our head about failure and turning them around to be the best versions of ourselves. .Selena is a unique combination of an Italian upbringing and a Hawaiian state of mind.

110: How Your Brain Processes Self-Talk | JASON HAMERA

You know the little voice inside your head — the one you’ve carried around inside you since before you could remember? Call it what you will: your conscience, your subconscious, the inner you. This voice is a part of us, a part of who we are, and we self identify with that voice on an inherent level. Known as self-talk, this internal chatter can be cheerful and supportive or negative and self-defeating. This voice is useful when it is positive, talking down fears and bolstering confidence. Human nature is prone to negative self-talk, however, and to sweeping assertions like “I can’t do anything right” or “I’m a complete #failure."Negative self-talk often does not reflect one's reality, and can paralyze people into inaction and self-absorption. A critical inner voice may be driven by the desire to protect a person from the shame of failure. Some people even credit their inner critic with pushing them to develop self-discipline, and to recognize their weaknesses before others do so that they can address them head on and push forward. Over time, though, the negativity of a critical inner voice takes an emotional toll.My guest Jason Hamera is living proof that positive self-talk leads to success. He goes into this with the science behind self talk in this episode. From belief systems to body language this episode is a must if you are not talking to yourself in a positive way!Find Jason here: https://bit.ly/2P8NizkThe Neuro Athletics Newsletter Instagram: @louisanicola_Twitter : @louisanicola_YouTube: @Louisa NicolaThe Neuro Experience Podcast is proud to have hosted: Dr Andrew Huberman, Dr Gabrielle Lyon, Dr Layne Norton, Thomas DeLauer, Shawn Stevenson, Dr. Rocio Salas-Whalen, Saad Alam, Uma Naidoo, Dr. Lanna Cheuck, Angela Lee Pucci, Jillian Turecki, Dr. Jordan Feigenbaum, Dr. Darren Candow, Dr. Sue Varma, Evy Poumpouras, Dr Casey Means, Renee Deehan, Dr Chris Palmer, Dr Charles Brenner, Dr Joe Zundell, Dr Ray Dorsy, Dr Dale Bredeson, Dr. Ben Bikman Learn more about your ad choices.
