Tatiana Chernihivskaya: “A person has half the genes in common with yeast!”
Our brain is a very mysterious system, and we don’t fully understand how it works. There is a lot of research on this topic, many opinions are expressed. And today we will talk about one of these points of view, namely the opinion of Tatiana Chernigovskaya, a Russian scientist in the field of neuroscience and psycholinguistics.
Editorial "Site" He shares with you the main points of his lecture about brainwork, memory and genes. Why Men Are Smarter Than Women, How Genes Affect Our Lives, and Does Our Brains Cheat Us? Share your opinion!
The first thing I would like to talk about is the human brain and information flows. Tatiana Chernihivskaya believes that our brain can remember everything we need. But the brain of modern man is very overloaded, because the information flows are simply incredible: television, radio, Internet. Something needs to be done about this, because information overload is bad for the brain.

And it's not. memoryThe brain will remember everything. Chernihivskaya says: “There is enough room in the brain for everything you want.” Even tried to count - the last bill, which I fished out, causes me skepticism and boils down to the following: if you watch "Dom-2" three hundred years without a break, still memory will not fill, such large volumes!
But the error can occur not from the fact that the volume will be filled, but from the fact that overload will occur. Roughly speaking, there will be a short circuit. So you have to be careful with information flows. It is worth a lot of effort, but it needs to be worked on. Less TV and Internet, more healthy food for the mind.
The next thesis is that men are smarter than women. For this point of view Chernihivskaya was even accused of sexual discrimination. She doesn't deny that fact and says, "I'm a specialist, I know." And I say without a single upset: I have not seen women Mozarts, Einsteins, Leonardo, even the chef is not a decent woman! But if a man is a fool, you won't meet a fool. But if you are smart, it is as a woman is not.”
Whether you agree with this point or not is your business. The opinion is quite subjective and in some ways even contradicts itself. Chernihivskaya says that it is time for a woman to keep her family and offspring, not play with toys. So what does Tatiana herself do?
And then there's another pretty interesting thought to think about. Each of us sincerely believes that we have free will and we make our own decisions, make our own actions. But isn't our brain fooling us? There's a suggestion made by Daniel Wegner that the brain makes all the decisions, and it just allows us to think that we decide everything.
Chernihivskaya says: “God forbid he is right!” There have been trials in the U.S. where the defendant said, “It’s not me, it’s my brain!” Wow, here we go! This means that the responsibility for actions is transferred not even to the mind, consciousness, but to the brain - to the brain tissue. This is a very serious question to think about.

The next, probably the most interesting, is DNA and genetics. Chernihivska says that DNA is suspicious, because it means that the life of each creature is written in just four letters. Only the history of the infusoria is small, and in a person it is the size of a library.
This is a rather strange statement, but not without a bit of truth: “Everyone on this planet is related. Humans share 50% of genes with yeast! So when you take on a croissant, remember your grandmother's face. Not to mention cats and chimpanzees.”
DepositPhotos Genetics is an amazing thing. But actually, genes are not everything. Here, for example, as with a piano inherited. It may be the best piano in the world, but until you learn to play it, it will be useless to you. One tool is not enough. So with genes: if you get the bad - it's not a problem, and if the good - it's not a guarantee of success.
If you’re interested in learning more about our brain from Tatiana Chernigovskaya’s mouth, be sure to watch her lecture on how our brains deceive us.

These theses are quite contradictory, but this is no less interesting. There is something to think about and think about. Whether or not to accept this viewpoint is up to you.
