5160
3696
00:20
including包含 your mood心情 and your focus焦点?
2
8880
2680
立刻产生积极作用?
00:24
And what if I told you that same相同 thing
could actually其实 last a long time
3
12160
5456
如果我告诉你它可长期维持
00:29
and protect保护 your brain
from different不同 conditions条件
4
17640

并保护你的大脑免受
00:32
like depression萧条,
Alzheimer's老年痴呆症 disease疾病 or dementia痴呆.
5
20320
3936
如抑郁、老年痴呆或是失智症等
不同病况的侵袭。
00:36
Would you do it?
6
24280
1656
你会愿意去做这件事吗?
00:37
Yes!
7
25960
1216
愿意!
00:39
I am talking about the powerful强大 effects效果
of physical物理 activity活动.
8
27200
4496
我所说的就是体育运动的强大效果。
00:43
Simply只是 moving移动 your body身体,
9
31720
2416
简单地让你的身体动起来,
00:46
has immediate即时, long-lasting持久的
and protective保护的 benefits好处 for your brain.
10
34160
5240
就能够对你的大脑产生
即时的和长期的保护功效。
00:51
And that can last
for the rest休息 of your life.
11
39960
2176
而且可以持续一生的时间。
00:54
So what I want to do today今天
is tell you a story故事
12
42160
2376
所以我今天想要分享一个故事,
00:56
about how I used my deep
understanding理解 of neuroscience神经科学,
13
44560
4616
关于我如何使用
我所深度理解的神经科学,
01:01
as a professor教授 of neuroscience神经科学,
14
49200
1736
作为一名神经科学教授,
01:02
to essentially实质上 do an experiment实验 on myself
15
50960
2816
我在自己身上做了一项实验,
01:05
in which哪一个 I discovered发现
the science科学 underlying底层
16
53800
3016
在这个实验中我发现了
01:08
why exercise行使
is the most transformative变革 thing
17
56840
3856
为什么运动最易转化成
01:12
that you can do for your brain today今天.
18
60720
2000
对你的大脑有益的东西。
01:15
Now, as a neuroscientist神经学家,
I know that our brains大脑,
19
63360
3696
作为一名神经科学家,
我知道我们的大脑,
01:19
that is the thing in our head right now,
20
67080
3056
就是我们脑袋中的东西,
01:22
that is the most complex复杂 structure结构体
known已知 to humankind人类.
21
70160
5096
是对人类所知的最为复杂的结构。
01:27
But it's one thing
to talk about the brain,
22
75280
2656
但是谈论大脑,
01:29
and it's another另一个 to see it.
23
77960
1440
和亲眼看到它是两件事。
01:31
So here is a real真实 preserved罐头 human人的 brain.
24
79880
2856
这是一个真实保存的人类大脑。
01:34
And it's going to illustrate说明 two key areas
that we are going to talk about today今天.
25
82760
3856
它会展示我们今天所要讨论的
两个关键部分。
01:38
The first is the prefrontal前额叶 cortex皮质,
right behind背后 your forehead前额,
26
86640
4256
第一部分是前额皮层,
就在你额头后面,
01:42
critical危急 for things like decision-making做决定,
focus焦点, attention注意 and your personality个性.
27
90920
5880
对做决定、专注力、注意力及性格等
至关重要。
01:49
The second第二 key area is located位于
in the temporal lobe, shown显示 right here.
28
97360
4256
第二个重要的区域是在颞叶,
右边这里。
01:53
You have two temporal lobes in your brain,
the right and the left,
29
101640
3136
在大脑里有两个颞叶,
右边一个左边一个,
01:56
and deep in the temporal lobe
is a key structure结构体
30
104800
2616
在颞叶深处有一个非常关键的结构
01:59
critical危急 for your ability能力
31
107440
1696
它对你的能力至关重要
02:01
to form形成 and retain保留 new long-term长期
memories回忆 for facts事实 and events事件.
32
109160
4456
能够形成和保存对事实、事件的
长期记忆。
02:05
And that structure结构体
is called the hippocampus海马.
33
113640
3136
它被称作海马体。
02:08
So I've always been fascinated入迷
with the hippocampus海马.
34
116800
3360
我一直对海马体非常着迷。
02:12
How could it be that an event事件
that lasts持续 just a moment时刻,
35
120640
4816
一件短暂的事情,
02:17
say, your first kiss,
36
125480
2216
比如说,你的初吻,
02:19
or the moment时刻 your first child儿童 was born天生,
37
127720
3456
或者你第一个孩子诞生的时刻,
02:23
can form形成 a memory记忆
that has changed your brain,
38
131200
3056
如何形成一个能够改变你的大脑
02:26
that lasts持续 an entire整个 lifetime一生?
39
134280
2336
且持续终生的记忆?
02:28
That's what I want to understand理解.
40
136640
2016
这是我想要去弄明白的。
02:30
I wanted to start开始 and record记录
the activity活动 of individual个人 brain cells细胞
41
138680
5096
我想要去开始记录
当形成新的记忆的时候
02:35
in the hippocampus海马
42
143800
1616
海马体中每个单独细胞活动。
02:37
as subjects主题 were forming成型 new memories回忆.
43
145440
2176
02:39
And essentially实质上 try and decode解码 how
those brief简要 bursts连发 of electrical电动 activity活动,
44
147640
5296
从本质上尝试解码
这些电流活动的短暂爆发,
02:44
which哪一个 is how neurons神经元
communicate通信 with each other,
45
152960
2936
这是神经元相互交流的方式,
02:47
how those brief简要 bursts连发 either allowed允许 us
to form形成 a new memory记忆, or did not.
46
155920
4600
这些短暂的爆发或让我们
形成一段新的记忆,或没有。
02:52
But a few少数 years年份 ago,
I did something very unusual异常 in science科学.
47
160960
3336
但是几年之前,
我做了一些科学界中很少见的实验。
02:56
As a full充分 professor教授 of neural神经 science科学,
48
164320
2136
作为一个神经科学的全职教授,
02:58
I decided决定 to completely全然 switch开关
my research研究 program程序.
49
166480
3800
我决定完全扭转我的研究计划。
03:02
Because I encountered遇到 something
that was so amazing惊人,
50
170840
4296
因为我遇到了如此神奇的事物,
03:07
with the potential潜在 to change更改 so many许多 lives生活
51
175160
3056
它有可能改变众多人的生命
03:10
that I had to study研究 it.
52
178240
1256
我必须要去研究它。
03:11
I discovered发现 and I experienced有经验的
the brain-changing大脑改变 effects效果 of exercise行使.
53
179520
6816
我发现并亲身经历了
运动对大脑的改变。
03:18
And I did it in a completely全然
inadvertent非故意的 way.
54
186360
3176
而且是一种完全
"无心插柳柳成荫"的方式。
03:21
I was actually其实 at the height高度
of all the memory记忆 work that I was doing --
55
189560
3816
事实上当时我正处于
所有记忆工作的最高点——
03:25
data数据 was pouring浇注 in,
56
193400
1616
数据如潮水般涌入,
03:27
I was becoming变得 known已知 in my field领域
for all of this memory记忆 work.
57
195040
4536
因为记忆研究工作,
我在那一领域正在声名鹊起。
03:31
And it should have been going great.
It was, scientifically科学.
58
199600
3600
它可以变得更出色,
从科学角度来讲,它正是如此。
03:35
But when I stuck卡住 my head
out of my lab实验室 door,
59
203720
3936
但当我在实验室外时,
03:39
I noticed注意到 something.
60
207680
1240
我注意到一件事,
03:41
I had no social社会 life.
61
209920
1456
那就是我没有社交生活。
03:43
I spent花费 too much time
listening to those brain cells细胞
62
211400
2736
我花费了太多时间倾听那些脑细胞上
03:46
in a dark黑暗 room房间, by myself.
63
214160
1576
在黑暗的屋子里,独自一人。
03:47
(Laughter笑声)
64
215760
1136
(笑声)
03:48
I didn't move移动 my body身体 at all.
65
216920
2616
我完全不运动。
03:51
I had gained获得 25 pounds英镑.
66
219560
2736
我已经长胖了25磅。
03:54
And actually其实, it took me
many许多 years年份 to realize实现 it,
67
222320
2816
事实上,我花费了很多年
才意识到这个问题。
03:57
I was actually其实 miserable.
68
225160
1456
我当时是很糟糕的,
03:58
And I shouldn't不能 be miserable.
69
226640
1696
而我本不该如此。
04:00
And I went on a river-rafting漂流河 trip --
by myself, because I had no social社会 life.
70
228360
4456
我自己一个人去做了一次漂流,
因为我没朋友啊。
04:04
And I came来了 back --
71
232840
1256
然后当我回来后——
04:06
(Laughter笑声)
72
234120
1016
(笑声)
04:07
thinking思维, "Oh, my God,
I was the weakest最弱 person on that trip."
73
235160
3456
想着,“天哪,
我是那趟旅程最弱的一个。”
04:10
And I came来了 back with a mission任务.
74
238640
1536
我回来后给自己下了一个任务。
04:12
I said, "I'm never going to feel
like the weakest最弱 person
75
240200
2656
我对自己说,“我再也不要这种感受,
再也不要做
04:14
on a river-rafting漂流河 trip again."
76
242880
1496
一个漂流之中最弱的那个。“
04:16
And that's what made制作 me go to the gym健身房.
77
244400
1976
这个想法促使我走进了健身房。
04:18
And I focused重点 my type-AA型 personality个性
78
246400
3496
我的A型人格促使我
04:21
on going to all the exercise行使
classes at the gym健身房.
79
249920
2936
尝试了健身房所有运动。
04:24
I tried试着 everything.
80
252880
1896
我尝试了一切。
04:26
I went to kickboxkickbox,
dance舞蹈, yoga瑜伽, step class,
81
254800
3936
我做了拳击训练,舞蹈,瑜伽,
踏步教程,
04:30
and at first it was really hard.
82
258760
2136
开始的时候确实很难。
04:32
But what I noticed注意到 is that after every一切
sweat-inducing汗诱导 workout锻炼 that I tried试着,
83
260920
4976
但我注意到每一次汗水挥洒后,
04:37
I had this great mood心情 boost促进
and this great energy能源 boost促进.
84
265920
3896
我的情绪都变得非常好,
精力也更好。
04:41
And that's what kept不停 me
going back to the gym健身房.
85
269840
2736
那促使我一直不断走进健身房。
04:44
Well, I started开始 feeling感觉 stronger.
86
272600
2576
然后我开始感受到自己变得强壮。
04:47
I started开始 feeling感觉 better,
I even lost丢失 that 25 pounds英镑.
87
275200
3616
我感受非常好,
甚至还减掉了那25磅。
04:50
And now, fast-forward快进 a year and a half
into this regular定期 exercise行使 program程序
88
278840
5000
现在,自我经常去参加运动后
已经一年半过去了,
04:56
and I noticed注意到 something that really
made制作 me sit up and take notice注意.
89
284800
3216
我注意到有些东西
值得我坐下来记录。
05:00
I was sitting坐在 at my desk,
writing写作 a research研究 grant发放,
90
288040
2976
当时我正坐在桌旁,
写着一份研究基金申请,
05:03
and a thought went through通过 my mind心神
91
291040
2056
一个想法突然从脑海冒出来,
05:05
that had never gone走了
through通过 my mind心神 before.
92
293120
2656
此前我从未这样想过。
05:07
And that thought was,
93
295800
1856
这个想法就是,
05:09
"Gee啧啧, grant-writing赠款-写作 is going well today今天."
94
297680
3296
“天哪,
申请材料今天写的很顺利嘛。”
05:13
And all the scientists科学家们 --
95
301000
1296
所有的科学家——
05:14
(Laughter笑声)
96
302320
1016
(笑声)
05:15
yeah, all the scientists科学家们
always laugh when I say that,
97
303360
2576
对,所有科学家都会在
我这样说的时候大笑,
05:17
because grant-writing赠款-写作 never goes well.
98
305960
2016
因为基金申请写作从来都不好写。
05:20
It is so hard; you're always
pulling your hair头发 out,
99
308000
2816
它太难了,你总是绞尽脑汁,
05:22
trying to come up with that
million-dollar-winning百万美元赢得 idea理念.
100
310840
3256
试图想出能够赢得百万美金的想法。
05:26
But I realized实现 that
the grant-writing赠款-写作 was going well,
101
314120
3256
但我意识到那次写作很顺利,
05:29
because I was able能够
to focus焦点 and maintain保持 my attention注意
102
317400
4336
因为我能够专注地保持我的注意力
05:33
for longer than I had before.
103
321760
2016
比以前时间都要久。
05:35
And my long-term长期 memory记忆 --
what I was studying研究 in my own拥有 lab实验室 --
104
323800
4976
我的长期记忆——
就是我实验室里研究的东西
05:40
seemed似乎 to be better in me.
105
328800
1840
显示也更好了。
05:43
And that's when I put it together一起.
106
331560
2056
从那时起我将它们联系在一起。
05:45
Maybe all that exercise行使
that I had included包括 and added添加 to my life
107
333640
5216
或许我所有的运动
05:50
was changing改变 my brain.
108
338880
1216
都在改变我的大脑。
05:52
Maybe I did an experiment实验 on myself
without even knowing会心 it.
109
340120
3016
或许我在自己没有意识到的情况下
对我自己进行了一项实验。
05:55
So as a curious好奇 neuroscientist神经学家,
110
343160
1616
作为一个好奇的神经学家,
05:56
I went to the literature文学 to see
what I could find about what we knew知道
111
344800
3696
我去文献里面查找现有已知的
06:00
about the effects效果
of exercise行使 on the brain.
112
348520
2096
关于运动对于大脑的影响。
06:02
And what I found发现 was an exciting扣人心弦
and a growing生长 literature文学
113
350640
4136
我发现一项让人欣喜的且正在增长的
文献记载
06:06
that was essentially实质上 showing展示 everything
that I noticed注意到 in myself.
114
354800
4176
记载了几乎所有发生在我身上的事
06:11
Better mood心情, better energy能源,
better memory记忆, better attention注意.
115
359000
3960
更好的情绪、精力、记忆力和
专注力。
06:15
And the more I learned学到了,
116
363600
2176
我所了解越多,
06:17
the more I realized实现
how powerful强大 exercise行使 was.
117
365800
3376
我就越认识到运动的魅力,
06:21
Which哪一个 eventually终于
led me to the big decision决定
118
369200
3176
这也指引我做了一个重大决定
06:24
to completely全然 shift转移 my research研究 focus焦点.
119
372400
3736
来完全扭转我的研究方向。
06:28
And so now, after several一些 years年份
of really focusing调焦 on this question,
120
376160
4896
现在,经过几年对
这个问题的专注研究,
06:33
I've come to the following以下 conclusion结论:
121
381080
2896
我得到了以下结论:
06:36
that exercise行使 is
the most transformative变革 thing
122
384000
3496
运动是当下你所能做的对大脑最好的
06:39
that you can do for your brain today今天
123
387520
2256
最具转化性的东西,
06:41
for the following以下 three reasons原因.
124
389800
2096
有以下三个原因:
06:43
Number one: it has
immediate即时 effects效果 on your brain.
125
391920
3776
原因一:它对你的大脑有
立刻的影响。
06:47
A single workout锻炼 that you do
126
395720
2016
你所做的每一点运动
06:49
will immediately立即 increase增加
levels水平 of neurotransmitters神经递质
127
397760
3616
都会立刻提升你神经递质的水平
06:53
like dopamine多巴胺, serotonin血清素
and noradrenaline去 甲 肾上腺素.
128
401400
3536
像是海马体、血清素和
去甲肾上腺素。
06:56
That is going to increase增加 your mood心情
right after that workout锻炼,
129
404960
3256
所以它会立马提升你的情绪,
07:00
exactly究竟 what I was feeling感觉.
130
408240
1576
就像我所体会到的。
07:01
My lab实验室 showed显示, that a single workout锻炼
131
409840
2456
我的实验显示,单个短暂的运动
07:04
can improve提高 your ability能力
to shift转移 and focus焦点 attention注意,
132
412320
3576
可以提升你转移和集中注意力的能力,
07:07
and that focus焦点 improvement起色
will last for at least最小 two hours小时.
133
415920
3936
这种提升可以持续至少两个小时。
07:11
And finally最后, studies学习 have shown显示
134
419880
1616
最后,研究还显示,
07:13
that a single workout锻炼
will improve提高 your reaction反应 times
135
421520
3376
运动本身可以提高你的反应时间
07:16
which哪一个 basically基本上 means手段
136
424920
1256
这意味着
07:18
that you are going to be faster更快
at catching that cup杯子 of Starbucks星巴克
137
426200
3336
你在接星巴克杯子的时候更迅速
07:21
that falls下降 off the counter计数器,
138
429560
1736
如果它掉下柜台的话,
07:23
which哪一个 is very, very important重要.
139
431320
1736
这一点可以说是相当重要了。
07:25
(Laughter笑声)
140
433080
1016
(笑声)
07:26
But these immediate即时 effects效果 are transient短暂的,
they help you right after.
141
434120
3920
但是这些直接影响都是短暂的,
它们只能帮你一时。
07:30
What you have to do is do what I did,
142
438720
1816
你所需要做的是像我一样,
07:32
that is change更改 your exercise行使 regime政权,
increase增加 your cardiorespiratory心 肺 function功能,
143
440560
4016
改变你的锻炼习惯,
增强你的心肺功能,
07:36
to get the long-lasting持久的 effects效果.
144
444600
2336
来取得长期的效果。
07:38
And these effects效果 are long-lasting持久的
145
446960
2256
这些效果之所以能够长期有用
07:41
because exercise行使 actually其实
changes变化 the brain's大脑的 anatomy解剖学,
146
449240
4416
是因为运动改变了大脑的解剖结构,
07:45
physiology生理 and function功能.
147
453680
2000
生理机能和功能。
07:48
Let's start开始 with my favorite喜爱
brain area, the hippocampus海马.
148
456360
3240
让我们从我最喜欢的大脑区域开始,
海马体。
07:52
The hippocampus海马 --
149
460360
1376
海马体——
07:53
or exercise行使 actually其实
produces产生 brand new brain cells细胞,
150
461760
4456
或者说是运动实际上
能够产生全新的脑细胞,
07:58
new brain cells细胞 in the hippocampus海马,
that actually其实 increase增加 its volume,
151
466240
4656
海马体中的全新脑细胞能够增加它的数量,
08:02
as well as improve提高
your long-term长期 memory记忆, OK?
152
470920
4336
同时提升你的长期记忆力。
08:07
And that including包含 in you and me.
153
475280
2440
这些对你我都适用。
08:10
Number two: the most common共同 finding发现
in neuroscience神经科学 studies学习,
154
478400
3616
原因二:
在神经科学研究中最常见的发现
08:14
looking at effects效果 of long-term长期 exercise行使,
155
482040
2616
是长期运动的影响
08:16
is improved改善 attention注意 function功能
dependent依赖的 or your prefrontal前额叶 cortex皮质.
156
484680
4376
它能够单独提升你的注意力
或是你的前额皮层。
08:21
You not only get
better focus焦点 and attention注意,
157
489080
2456
你不仅能够得到更好的专注力,
08:23
but the volume of the hippocampus海马
increases增加 as well.
158
491560
3576
同时也增加了你的海马体数量。
08:27
And finally最后, you not only get
immediate即时 effects效果 of mood心情 with exercise行使
159
495160
4976
最后一点是你不仅能够
获得即时的愉悦心情
08:32
but those last for a long time.
160
500160
1656
这种情绪还能够维持较长的时间。
08:33
So you get long-lasting持久的 increases增加
in those good mood心情 neurotransmitters神经递质.
161
501840
5360
所以你获得的是能够长期存在的
情绪转化神经元。
08:39
But really, the most transformative变革 thing
that exercise行使 will do
162
507920
4576
但实际上,运动所做的
最具变革意义的事情是
08:44
is its protective保护的 effects效果 on your brain.
163
512520
3176
它对于大脑的保护作用。
08:47
Here you can think
about the brain like a muscle肌肉.
164
515720
2856
你可以将大脑想象成是一块肌肉。
08:50
The more you're working加工 out,
165
518600
1656
你运动的越多,
08:52
the bigger and stronger your hippocampus海马
and prefrontal前额叶 cortex皮质 gets得到.
166
520280
4840
你的海马体和前额皮层
就越大越强壮。
08:57
Why is that important重要?
167
525640
1296
为什么这一点很重要呢?
08:58
Because the prefrontal前额叶 cortex皮质
and the hippocampus海马
168
526960
2776
因为前额皮层和海马体
09:01
are the two areas that are most
susceptible易感 to neurodegenerative神经退行性 diseases疾病
169
529760
5776
是最易神经退化疾病影响的两个区域
09:07
and normal正常 cognitive认知 decline下降 in aging老化.
170
535560
2920
并容易随着年龄增长认知能力下降。
09:10
So with increased增加 exercise行使
over your lifetime一生,
171
538960
3176
所以增加运动量,
09:14
you're not going to cure治愈
dementia痴呆 or Alzheimer's老年痴呆症 disease疾病,
172
542160
3136
你不仅能够预防痴呆和
阿兹海默综合症,
09:17
but what you're going to do
is you're going to create创建
173
545320
2496
你更能够创造
09:19
the strongest最强, biggest最大 hippocampus海马
and prefrontal前额叶 cortex皮质
174
547840
2656
最强壮有力的海马体和前额皮层
09:22
so it takes longer for these diseases疾病
to actually其实 have an effect影响.
175
550520
4440
所以能够更有效低于这些疾病。
09:27
You can think of exercise行使, therefore因此,
176
555560
2776
因此,你可以把运动想象成是
09:30
as a supercharged增压 401K for your brain, OK?
177
558360
5416
为你的大脑额外提供的401退休金计划,
对不对?
09:35
And it's even better, because it's free自由.
178
563800
2880
而且更棒的是,它是免费的。
09:39
So this is the point in the talk
where everybody每个人 says,
179
567880
2896
所以重点来了,大家都会说,
09:42
"That sounds声音 so interesting有趣, Wendy温迪,
180
570800
2136
“这听起来很不错啊,温蒂,
09:44
but I really will only
want to know one thing.
181
572960
2536
但我事实上只想知道一件事。
09:47
And that is, just tell me
the minimum最低限度 amount of exercise行使
182
575520
3896
告诉我吧,运动的最低量是多少
09:51
I need to get all these changes变化."
183
579440
1856
如果我想要实现你所说的这些变化。“
09:53
(Laughter笑声)
184
581320
1016
(笑声)
09:54
And so I'm going to tell you
the answer回答 to that question.
185
582360
2816
我马上就会给出答案。
09:57
First, good news新闻: you don't have to become成为
a triathlete运动员 to get these effects效果.
186
585200
4296
首先,好消息是:你不需要参加
铁人三项才能获得这些改变。
10:01
The rule规则 of thumb拇指 is you want to get
three to four times a week exercise行使
187
589520
4536
首要的原则是你需每周运动三到四次
10:06
minimum最低限度 30 minutes分钟 an exercise行使 session会议,
188
594080
3416
每次最低30分钟,
10:09
and you want to get aerobic有氧 exercise行使 in.
189
597520
2656
要包含有氧运动。
10:12
That is, get your heart rate up.
190
600200
1976
这样能够让你的心率加快。
10:14
And the good news新闻 is,
you don't have to go to the gym健身房
191
602200
2496
还有一个好消息是你不需要走进健身房
10:16
to get a very expensive昂贵 gym健身房 membership.
192
604720
2016
来办一张昂贵的会员卡。
10:18
Add an extra额外 walk步行 around the block
in your power功率 walk步行.
193
606760
3696
在你能力范围内在周边街区多走一圈。
10:22
You see stairs楼梯 -- take stairs楼梯.
194
610480
2456
如果见到台阶-就走走台阶。
10:24
And power-vacuuming电源清除 can be as good
as the aerobics有氧运动 class
195
612960
4096
这些能量的聚集和有氧课程是一样的
10:29
that you were going to take at the gym健身房.
196
617080
1880
就像你在健身房上的一样。
10:31
So I've gone走了 from memory记忆 pioneer先锋
197
619800
4056
所以我从记忆先锋
10:35
to exercise行使 explorer探险者.
198
623880
1776
变成了运动探索者。
10:37
From going into the innermost
workings运作 of the brain,
199
625680
3816
从深入大脑内部的运作,
10:41
to trying to understand理解 how exercise行使
can improve提高 our brain function功能,
200
629520
4216
到尝试了解运动
如何来提升大脑的性能,
10:45
and my goal目标 in my lab实验室 right now
201
633760
2816
我现在的实验室目标是
10:48
is to go beyond that rule规则 of thumb拇指
that I just gave you --
202
636600
3136
超越我刚刚所给你们的首要原则——
10:51
three to four times a week, 30 minutes分钟.
203
639760
1896
每周三到四次大于30分钟。
10:53
I want to understand理解
the optimum最佳 exercise行使 prescription处方
204
641680
5216
我想要为你了解运动的最佳配方
10:58
for you, at your age年龄,

和保护你的大脑。
11:15
But it's one thing to talk about exercise行使,
and it's another另一个 to do it.
210
663760
4056
但是知易行难,
11:19
So I'm going to invoke调用 my power功率
as a certified认证 exercise行使 instructor讲师,
211
667840
3736
所以让我来以一个
认证运动教练的身份来呼吁你们,

ABOUT THE SPEAKER
Wendy Suzuki - Neuroscientist, author
Wendy Suzuki is researching the science behind the extraordinary, life-changing effects that physical activity can have on the most important organ in your body: your brain.

Why you should listen

Dr. Wendy A. Suzuki is a Professor of Neural Science and Psychology in the Center for Neural Science at New York University, an author, storyteller and fitness instructor. She received her undergraduate degree in physiology and human anatomy at the University of California, Berkeley in 1987 studying with Prof. Marion C. Diamond, a leader in the field of brain plasticity. She went on to earn her PhDin Neuroscience from U.C. San Diego in 1993 and completed a post-doctoral fellowship at the National Institutes of Health before accepting her faculty position at New York University in 1998.

Suzuki's major research interest continues to be brain plasticity. She is best known for her extensive work studying areas in the brain critical for our ability to form and retain new long-term memories. More recently, her work has focused on understanding how aerobic exercise can be used to improve learning, memory and higher cognitive abilities in humans. She is passionate about teaching, about exercise (intenSati) and about supporting and mentoring up and coming scientists.
