Mission: We are a pioneering team of scientists, clinicians, information analysts, educators, media and communications specialists, artists, and business strategists dedicated to advancing frontier science and medical education. FRONTIER SCIENCE connecting important communities! SHIFT COMMUNICATION presents “The Feeling Brain” Series – an approach that is absolutely unique: nothing less than the integration of diverse research and creative communities in compelling ways that advance frontier science, medicine, and public education. Media profoundly shapes consciousness, thinking and beliefs of billions of people. “The Feeling Brain” Series is the joint output of several leading neuroscientists who are internationally renowned for their cutting-edge research. The content has been produced and packaged by a top-flight media team, reviewed by experts in the related fields, and will be approved for AMA Category 1 CME credits in the next several months. The series currently comprises pilot episodes and tutorials for what we are confident will become the most advanced, in depth educational exploration of the emotion sciences. THE FEELING BRAIN: Exploring the Science of Emotion The key to progress in frontier science is, first, to connect otherwise isolated fields of highly specialized research and treatment that directly impact the human condition using the creative power of media, and, second, to apply advanced analysis methodology to improve education efficacy. Effectively, we will leverage breakthrough applications to greatly improve how we teach–and learn– science. "The Feeling Brain" Series sets out to advance the emotion sciences and the scientific study of consciousness by: 1) Integrating frontier science across disciplines; 2) producing purposeful networking incentives with compelling multimedia education modules; and 3) communicating the emerging science to targeted demographics, as well as and wide, general audiences.

New #blog post! For reasons that drive scientists close to despair, #media writers get science stories wrong. However, for the first time in history anybody can read the primary sources of #science! There’s only one barrier, and it’s in your own #mind.
Many scientific studies use experimental comparisons between similar cs and uncs events. This “contrastive analysis” approach has been very fruitful. Dozens of techniques now permit conscious — unconscious comparisons. Any method that permits such comparisons can enlarge our understanding. The resulting empirical harvest has been very large.
Ambiguities
“Consciousness” has several meanings.
It is used in biomedical science to refer to the state of waking consciousness, as assessed by responsiveness to questions, commands, and mild pain, by the classical scalp EEG of waking, and by the ability to describe oneself and current events. We will use terms like “conscious state” or “waking state” for this specific meaning. However, in scientific work “consciousness” is also used to refer to the “dimension of conscious vs. unconscious brain events” — that is, as an experimental variable that allows us to study brain differences attributable to consciousness.
This usage is profoundly different from the first, since it involves a measurable dimension of variation.
Yet “consciousness as an empirical variable” is still commonly confused with the waking state or with subjectivity. They are linked, but not the same.

New blog post! How do we define #consciousness? In scientific usage the topic of consciousness today refers to the “conscious-unconscious dimension,” which includes subjective experiences, but always compared to close #brain analogues that aren't conscious. #neuroscience #subjectivity

Deep #sleep is the most unconscious natural state. Physiologically, it is needed for consolidation of experiential #memory traces via hippocampal-neocortical theta-gamma signaling. We do not know the full set of functions of deep sleep, but more than 200 types of gene expression are known to correlate with the sleep-waking cycle. Deep sleep therefore does not mean the absence of active, biologically important brain activities. More on the subject of #unconscious states in my recent #blog post.

Hi folks 🙂 NEW PODCAST EPISODE #8! "In the context of developing human brains, how can we understand consciousness?" Roundtable Part 1: A Neuroanatomy & Neuro-function Approach with Dr. Jay Giedd, Chief of Child & Adolescent Psychiatry, UCSD. These thoughtful episodes are co-hosted by our Chief Science Officer and dear friend, neuroscientist @David Edelman, and in a special tribute are recorded in the dining room of his father, Nobel Laureate Gerald Edelman. Produced by @Natalie Geld 🙂.
EPISODE 8 The Developing Brain & Consciousness: Roundtable Part One of the podcast #OnConsciousness with Bernard Baars – – A thoughtful discussion exploring some fundamental issues that confront the science of consciousness. Namely, how do we define consciousness? What does that term mean? Where do we even start?
Neuroscientist David Edelman and Developmental Neuropsychiatrist Jay Giedd, Professor of Psychiatry at UCSD School Of Medicine and Director of Child & #Adolescent #Psychiatry at Rady Children's Hospital-San Diego talk candidly about our understanding of the complex - and often tantalizing - nature of consciousness.
In the context of the developing human brain, how can we understand #consciousness? To many of us, consciousness seems like a simple, commonsense notion. When we’re awake, we all know that we are, more often than not, aware—of the world, of our thoughts and emotions, of our feeling states (i.e., hunger, thirst, pain, etc.), among others. When we fall into a deep, dreamless sleep, that #awareness slips away.
But, this notion is actually quite confounding—particularly when one considers that there must be a specific moment during development when the #brain transitions from a small, non-conscious organ comprising a few dozen cells to a complex, 86 billion-cell nexus of #conscious feelings, #emotions, and #thoughts.
When, precisely, does that moment occur? In the womb? When we are just a few weeks old? These are the key questions that David Edelman and developmental neuropsychiatrist Jay Giedd ponder in this podcast.
A lively back-and-forth ensues as the two neuroscientists bring their respective backgrounds to bear on the emergence and nature of consciousness during development:
One, a neuroscientist focused on consciousness in non-human animals and the other, a psychiatrist and neuroscientist who has spent more than thirty years exploring the growth and development of the human brain from embryogenesis through childhood and adolescence well into adulthood.
Along the way, David and Jay reinforce the notion that memory is a sine qua non of conscious states. As they learn to negotiate the world, very young infants experience the world with their developing senses, remember certain experiences, and then modify their behaviors accordingly.
But, when do the first substantive memories actually form? There is certainly a Rubicon that is crossed; we just haven’t figured out when it happens or what that passage looks like. Memory is a ubiquitous faculty across the animal kingdom; even relatively simple animals like the humble marine snail Aplysia can learn and remember at a fundamental level.
Are the different developmental stages of #memory in growing infants comparable to the increasingly sophisticated memory faculties found in the nervous systems of ever more complex organisms?
Roundtable Part One Talking Points
0:03 – Opening lines by David Edelman.
0:58 – Jay Giedd introduces himself, his background in psychiatry, robotics, and reproductive medicine, and how all of it ties together as he studies brain development.
1:52 – David Edelman opens the conversation by asking about Jay Giedd’s idea of
consciousness.
2:15 – Jay Giedd looks at consciousness from the perspective of the developing brain in a fetus, particularly at what point does consciousness arise and how would that be detectable through a brain scanner.
3:14 – Edelman makes a connection between Giedd’s outlook on consciousness with that of the brain’s behavior during a sleeping state.
6:02 – Jay Giedd points out that a memory appears to be essential for the rise of consciousness, and how sleep, a process which no animal escaped from evolutionarily, is essential for proper memory formation.
8:57 – David Edelman describes what happens in the brain while a person is asleep and proposes the idea that consciousness may have a variety of forms and that a brain’s sleeping state may be one of several.
10:11 – Giedd brings up the role of dreams and our vague understanding of them.
David and Jay highlight important questions that may provide important waypoints along the way. Towards the end of their conversation, David and Jay consider the transition from wakefulness to deep non-REM sleep and its signal importance as a transition between conscious and non-conscious states during which changes in brain activity occur that we can actually study—and that provides clues as to the nature of consciousness.
Sigmund Freud once said, “The interpretation of #dreams is the royal road to a knowledge of the unconscious activities of the #mind.”
Though #Freud was clearly referring to understanding a behavioral manifestations of a #dreaming #brain that may now be understood to be #conscious in some sense (albeit mostly a matter of the #cerebral #cortex, cut off from the world, “talking to itself”), we can certainly invoke his #spirit as a scientific #observer in pursuit of the verifiable truth when we say that investigating the passage from #wakefulness to deep #sleep and back again may well help pave the royal road to understanding consciousness in the brain, whether still in the throes of development or fully formed.
Quotes from Episode 8
"There's a kind of a commonplace notion of what consciousness is. Nearly everyone sort of knows what we mean when we invoke the term. But when it comes to the actual hard-nosed scientific aspect, we really haven't arrived at any sort of consensus; at least as far as I know, there's no real consensus as to what we mean when we bring up the term, ‘consciousness.'" -- David Edelman
"When do we cross that Rubicon from non-conscious processing to conscious processing? And one of the aspects that Bernie Baars and in fact my late father, Nobel Laureate Gerald Edelman delved into was certain brain states -- certain behavioral states, actually -- that have underlying brain states that are indicative perhaps of "a difference that makes a difference." And one example might be the contrast between waking states and say a dreamless deep sleep. And the fact that we can observe through brain imaging -- through a variety of techniques -- we can observe a real difference in function there." -- David Edelman
"We all have different paths that we've taken to come to the study of consciousness and my path has been looking at it from the development of the brain. I'm a child, adolescent, and geriatric psychiatrist by training. I'm the Chief of Child and Adolescent Psychiatry here at UC San Diego and a professor at Fukui University in Japan in Robotics, and at Johns Hopkins in Reproductive Medicine. But what ties together my interest has been the brain and how it changes throughout life. What sort of things influenced it, in good ways and in bad ways. And looking at the brain and health and illness and what permeates all of these interests is consciousness, which is in some ways the most basic and simple notion, and also one of the most difficult to grasp."
-- Jay Giedd
"I want to try to understand consciousness from a neuroanatomy and neuro-function standpoint. What would consciousness look like in a brain scanner and other types of imaging? What are we looking for, in a sense, and could I predict from basically the architecture and the anatomy, that this could be conscious, and this would not be able to be conscious?" -- Jay Giedd
"For me, consciousness is more about questions than answers, even after 30 years of trying. But the memory aspect is actually a really good place to start. To what extent do babies in the womb have a memory, or even after they're born?" -- Jay Giedd

“One of the most fundamental misconceptions is that part of our brain is emotional and needs to be overcome by the rational, civilized parts of our brain, when in fact thought and emotion are inseparable," says Dr. Jay N. Giedd of the National Institute for Mental Health. The Feeling Brain series hits home for all viewers with its focus on how a three-and-a-half-pound organ gives rise to the feelings we all experience every day of our lives. But, it goes even further by highlighting research that is beginning to reveal how and why our emotional lives may enrich our experiences or turn against us and those we love. There have been other shows about the brain. What makes this series unique? It’s not about the brain. It’s not about psychiatry. It bridges the huge gap between—how does one get from brain to behavior and treatment on the basis of evidence? We’re sitting on decades of substantive research in the emotion sciences, along with available established and experimental therapies for improving patient care and outcomes. There is a huge void in medical education regarding the neural basis of emotion that we must address - our series highlights how discoveries in neuroscience can impact and improve the ability of clinicians to recognize mental illness in patients that might otherwise be overlooked. Our first broadcast episodes and CME course provides a direct connection between what neuroscientists are learning about the basis of emotion and what doctors and other medical practitioners can do to improve both the diagnosis of emotional disorders and the ultimate outcome of treatment. The Feeling Brain Series delivers a compelling account of how the emotions we experience in everyday life emerge from the otherwise invisible and inaccessible processes of the brain. Through presentations by engaging neuroscientists at the leading edge of their fields, the series reveals what those processes are and how they can go awry, resulting in a descent into the throes
