Turns out I can have chapters on a video! So you might notice it's handily split into sections. If you want to find a particular topic the old school way though, here you go: 0:00 Intro 1:10 Symptoms of Huntington's 3:52 Broad causes in the brain 5:40 Genetics of Huntington’s and more detailed causes 12:01 Treatments- both current and potential 14:59 Useful links, thanks, and wrap up 17:18 Outtakes and links to other videos

Ooooh, chapters... Cool! Still watching from start to finish, I'm not a neurologist so I'm bound to need some of the more basic info along the way.
"IT NEVER IS!" That's going to be my new text alert on my phone
Soph's notes, brought to you by Soph's actual university notes
I had forgotten how much of a banger the X-Men theme tune was 😅 I promise that's not the main thing I learned, but I'm very grateful for it too
Thanks Soph - love your work.
Love the drawings that go along with your videos! Those plus your sense of humor actually keeps me watching "thinky" videos like these.
Amazingly done. Very well explained for all lvls of previous genetics knowledge
Congrats on the 10K subscribers! :D
Thanks For this post & explaining HD so well , i have lost a lot of family to this disease including my Dad my brother my grandmother etc , I’m currently going through the process of getting tested to see if i have the gene myself ... 🤞 🧬
Thanks Soph, for this video. I had a cousin die of Huntington's disease a few years back. I appreciate your insights xoxo
That is the best explanation of the Huntintin gene that I have ever seen.Well done Sophie.
Thanks, Soph. Very informative but easy to understand. Wish I could afford to be a Patreon supporter, but alas... Thanks to all those who do. Question: Do you ever marvel that all of these complex complexities, interdependent functions of our bodies--let alone the world and the Universe--just came about by undirected, random chance?
Really found this educational
BTW the protein in ALS is called TPD-43. It too clumps.
you do this verry well!!i have huntington, and hopefully i still have 13 years to live.i hope you have a long and good life.kisses from belgium
Awesome video! Really interesting -- I'm curious if you found anything in your research about how tetrobenazine about how the lower dopamine levels affect people given the importance of dopamine in general
I have Huntingon's Disease, and ADD/ADHD and COPD and Fibromyalgia. The drug the Dr. recently put me on was Trazadone!! It's working amazingly for my Nervousness every day, and anxiety, also help a bit with my depression! It's 25mg and primarily used for Insomnia but seems to be working well and I'm feeling a lot less agitated and Irritable on it so far.
Our conversation about mental health would be great if you could get a video out for the start of this Mental Health Awareness Week will take place from 18-24 May 2020. Think it was he subject of how chemicals in our brains affect us, and if some one is imbalanced, how that imbalanced can effect them, it is a subject that is very close to my heart as I suffer from it, been diagnosed with BPD, CPTSD, social anxiety, and also being tested for asd too
Early stage is behavioral. My ex started throwing and fighting, then going out drinking and sleeping around, eventually not coming home, not working or contributing to family, getting DUIs . She gone!
Hello soph m from India can u suggest I which hospital we can get treatment from this disease
16:01 Nobody saw that coming
"Coincidentally, and because I planned it" :)))))))
Phenomeno....nom..nomnom....nom.

@@SophsNotes And dude, you have a special player o.0 that's friggin' neat! I guess because it's promoting an awareness month that it does that?
I thought that the involuntary movement disorder was called "chorea"Or has that fallen out of fashion in the science world?
Is it the end of the "Subscribe it if you subscribe it" catch-phrase ? :'(
This is depressing
You ever find it hard to watch a video because all you can focus on is how attractive the person in the video is?
I keep trying to look at your hands but you move them so quickly....
