About From Our Neurons to Yours
This award-winning show from Stanford’s Wu Tsai Neurosciences Institute is a field manual for anyone who wants to understand their own brain and the new science reshaping how we learn, age, heal, and make sense of ourselves.Each episode, host Nicholas Weiler sits down with leading scientists to unpack big ideas from the frontiers of the field—brain-computer interfaces and AI language models; new therapies for depression, dementia, and stroke; the mysteries of perception and memory; even the debate over free will. You’ll hear how basic research becomes clinical insight and how emerging tech might expand what it means to be human. If you’ve got a brain, take a listen.

[…] For example, all of those ion channels are decorated with polysaccharides. They're glycosylated. They're glycoproteins. And the sugars attached to the ion channels regulate their functions. So they affect their folding. They affect the way that subunits come together to form a multi-subunit complex. In the case of ion channels, they very explicitly can control basically the electric potential across the ion channel because some of these sugars are highly negatively charged. So they'll actually influence the rate of flow of cations through the channel. And many of the lipids in your membranes are glycolipids. […]
