Geneticist Steve McCarroll wants to make an atlas of all the cells in the human body so that we can understand in precise detail how specific genes work, especially in the brain. In this fascinating talk, he shares his team's progress — including their invention of "Drop-seq," a technology that allows scientists to analyze individual cells at a scale that was never before possible — and describes how this research could lead to new ways of treating mental illnesses like schizophrenia.

Not
*Are*
How data *are* helping, you clowns.
Data here is treated as a noncount noun, using it as a singular makes sense in this context. Plus saying “How data are helping..” also just sounds wrong lmao. You wouldn’t say “How information are helping”
It wasn’t very long ago all all that the brain was helping us unravel the mysteries of data. What a twist!
Nice video for Everyone it’s a motivational video for Everyone I will suggest to Everyone please Watch this video
The sheeples brain
sometimes, Ted stories are better than Discovery channel’s documentaries.
Most times :)!
everything else when are the documentaries ever good in the first place?
This video is so out of left field for today’s TED. I was expecting African tribal dance or some intersectional feminist drivel.
Wow this is amazing
Anyone else thankful that this guest speaker does NOT have a stupid Back up dancer !?!
When is ted actually going to talk
More videos like these please 🙂
Unfortunately well all be dead or old before science is advanced enough to really deal with depression and other mental illnesses.
Yeah like liberalism
Yuval Noah Harari sends hist Greetings. This is Dataism how he described it
The Tone of his voice doesn’t correlate with the theme of his…story, cancer, zcyshophrenia? It seems like he just D/NGAF. The fact so many press like gives testament that they are such sheep, and that they don’t mind bending social rules for a bit, in place of a pity ride. I’m not voting age yet, so to discredit your opinions even more ++, but here is a link to how to approach the life altering subject of how to reason so that your best offense is not below the level of a sucky defense that such and such and such said might work from the view of popular poor people viewpoints: https://bigthink.com/mike-colagrossi/no-standardized-tests-no-private-schools-no-stress-10-reasons-why-finlands-education-system-in-the-best-in-the-world adios ted-ious N another one~: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vAij7dYrz00
