As a medical student who JUST came out of the basal ganglia lecture for the direct/indirect pathways, you are amazing. This clears all the foggy debris my professor was spewing our way. Can you please teach the rest of my neuro course?

this is real teaching. thanks. simple and not boring. and, that beautiful voices makes it so much fun to understand.

I love you Emma!! Why professors can't explain it like this? It is even interesting now, thank you very much.

I was going to comment this exactly. word for word

Thank you for the clear explanation. Your voice is amazing!

I've watched videos like this all morning and this is the best yet.thanks!

Absolutely OUTSTANDING! Your description is so very clear and exceeds any neuroanatomy explanation I heard in University. Thank you!

You explained this better than my professor! Thank you! Keep making more

This is very helpful! Your explanations are clear and simple. You've got a very calm and clear voice. THANK YOU!!!

Killer Video!!! Really!...wow! 10/10 Impeccable quality, presentation, and deliery. Thank you so much for making the material so crystal clear!!! ^__^

Omg, I have to give a presentation of this subject, all the books where so vague but now it all makes sense! You explain it so well, thank you!

Your voice is so nice, it makes it really easy and calming to listen to. Plus your explanation is awesome. Thank you!

your explanation is literally gorgeous , Amazing job , Thank you ❤

wonderfully expalined it help me a lot before i couldnt understand basal ganglia, thank you so much keep it up.

A professor in my university explained this pathway as if he was explaining a new Quantum theory. Thank you Emma.

Well done, beautifully presented and executed. I'm astounded by how short and easy this was to follow compared to the articles I've been reading.

I'm so grateful to your videos about basal ganglia, life saving thanks so much!

Thank you Emma for all these explanations. They are clear and well illustrated, it is a pleasure for me to finally understand these concepts. Your language is very fluid, ...much pleasant for non english-native people!

WOW amazing, my prof was even having trouble explaining this and you helped me understand! you explain it so simply, keep it up! thanks

THANK YOU so much for this video!! It makes it clear how the Basal Ganglia work :) your voice is also very soothing which is nice when you are stressed about upcoming exams

I really like the way you make these videos, Khan Academy! KUDOS to you. It was of great help for me to understand this topic of Neuroscience subject.

Emma you're the best!! Plz make more and more videos! It helped me a lot in my studies! You're doing a great job! keep it up! XOXO

Very simple explanation of a very complex phenomenon. Thank you

one of the best explanations Ever!!! great job

Probably the best video on KZread

This was a really helpful overview / review of basal ganglia. Thank you so much.

Clear, concise, and pleasing to the ear. Don't get me wrong, but if I enjoy the sound of someones voice I am more likely to retain more,

Thank you so much! Was really struggling to understand this until now.

Currently studying for a neuropsychology exam, thank you so much!

Really satisfied! i am working for an exam and this video helped me so much. thank you:)

Perfect video! Thank you!

OMG you explained it so well. Thanks you!

Very good explanation easy to follow and understand. This will help me in my current college class. Thanks!

This is AMAZINGGGGGGGGGG. I CANT HANDLE IT. THANK YOU!

This is wonderful. You made things so easy. Thanks.

Absolutely Brilliant!

perfect perfect...thank you Emma..you are great.congratulations

omg thank u! i have been trying to figure it out for like an hour! i was going mad! xD thank u! everything got very clear in 10 min!

I have an exam about GTS, which is a complex syndrome... and to understand where the tics are coming from - I had to understand the basal ganglia circuit. There are some hypothesis about how the connection between the substantia nigra and subthalamic nuclei isn't working as it should - the substantia nigra should be telling the subthalamic nuclei stop, when it receives too much dopamin - but it seems as if it never does, when a person has GTS. Because when a person has GTS there's an increase of dopamin production and that's where the chemical dysfunction is being expressed. I am so thankful for your help. It's the only way I could understand this.

What an explanation! .thank u so much.

great video. so easy to understand. Thanks

Dr. Giles, Do you plan on releasing more videos on neuroscience? I find your explanations to be fantastic!

Pretty AND smart. You're the whole package Emma!

Very well explained. TY

Thanks a lot, amazing.

Very nice explanation, thank you.

OMG THANK YOUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUU!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! i wish you were my teacher for everything in med school!!!!!!!

Excellent👌

I love you. Thanks :)

❤❤ i love it

Emma, your name should be on my graduation certificate lol

thanks a lot

Hey does anyone know if the Substantia Nigra inhibits the subthalamic nucleus with D2 NT like in the Indirect pathway. or is the substantia nigra using GABA like the rest of the CNS? I'm assuming that the Subthalamic nucleus excites the SNcompacta with glutamate like it would the Globus Pallidus Interna. Thanks!

Does the basal ganglia control fine motor skills such as typing or moving of a mouse or even playing an instrument?

Marry me Emma, after weeks of frustrating study I found that my lecturer was wrong and so were my peers. I spent days trying to understand something that was wrong with my friends who just ended up rote memorising the pathway.

i love your voice lab dub lab dub lab dub :)

Love the accent

Excellent presentation. 1 question. What excites or inhibits the STN so as to further excite or inhibit the SN?

@flyerball77

William McGilberry Hey hope this isn't too late The STN receives input from both the cerebral cortex and the GPe (indirect pathway). The cortex stimulates the STN whereas the GPe inhibits the STN. Also, the SNc receives input from the limbic system and prefrontal cortex. Consequently, it is thought that the SNc plays a role in facilitating movement that seeks the most rewarding outcomes.

omg tysm

What starts the subthalamic nucleus ?how does it know to excite the substantia nigra?

@acdcluver1

cortical input to the medium spiny neurons in the striatum project to the GPE and then to the subthalamic nucleus, but ONLY in the INDIRECT pathway.

well done u r amazing ..keep going on
