Neurotransmitters
Neurotransmitters are chemical messengers that transmit signals between neurons. They are synthesized in the presynaptic neuron, stored in vesicles, released into the synaptic cleft upon an action potential, and bind to receptors on the postsynaptic neuron. Common neurotransmitters include acetylcholine, dopamine, GABA, glutamate, and serotonin. Neurotransmitters are involved in communication between neurons and play a role in diseases when their function is impaired.

The document discusses the benefits of exercise for mental health. Regular physical activity can help reduce anxiety and depression and improve mood and cognitive function. Exercise causes chemical changes in the brain that may help protect against mental illness and improve symptoms.
Neuroscience Methods
Neuroscientists use four main methods to measure brain activity and correlate it with behavior: 1) examining brain anatomy using CT or MRI scans; 2) recording brain activity during tasks using EEG, MEG, PET, or fMRI scans; 3) studying the effects of brain damage; and 4) examining the effects of stimulating specific brain areas using transcranial magnetic stimulation or injecting chemicals. However, interpreting the results of brain stimulation experiments is challenging because behaviors involve multiple brain regions.
Gross anatomy of human brain
The document describes the structure and functions of different parts of the human brain. It discusses the cerebrum, cerebral cortex, lobes of the brain including the frontal, parietal, occipital and temporal lobes. It identifies various cortical regions and describes their functions, such as the primary motor cortex, Broca's area, visual cortex, auditory cortex etc. It also describes sulci, fissures and gyri of the cerebral cortex.
Cerebellum and basal ganglia
The cerebellum and basal ganglia both play important roles in motor control and movement. The cerebellum monitors and makes corrective adjustments to motor plans. It has three functional divisions - the vestibulocerebellum regulates balance and eye movements, the spinocerebellum controls distal and proximal muscle movements, and the cerebrocerebellum plans sequential movements. The basal ganglia helps plan and control complex movement patterns through direct and indirect pathways that can be modulated by dopamine. Parkinson's disease results from loss of dopamine-producing neurons in the basal ganglia, increasing inhibition of movement.

The retina contains photoreceptor cells that convert light into neural signals. These signals are processed in the retina and transmitted to the lateral geniculate nucleus and primary visual cortex via two main pathways - the parvocellular and magnocellular pathways. The parvocellular pathway is involved in processing color and spatial detail, while the magnocellular pathway processes motion. In the primary visual cortex, neurons respond selectively to visual features like orientation, direction of motion, and binocular disparity. Higher visual areas become specialized for functions like color perception in V4 and motion processing in V5.
Introduction To Neuroscience
The document provides a historical overview of neuroscience from prehistory to modern times. It discusses key developments such as the realization that the brain, not the heart, is the center of intelligence and memory (Ancient Greece). Later studies localized brain functions and identified the neuron as the basic functional unit of the nervous system (19th century). Contemporary neuroscience examines the brain at molecular, cellular, systems and behavioral levels to understand nervous system disorders and the relationship between brain activity and the mind.
Neurobiology of emotion
This document discusses the neurobiology of emotions. It defines emotions, moods, and affects. The core brain regions involved in emotions are the cerebral cortex, limbic system (particularly the amygdala), and brain stem. The limbic system, including structures like the hippocampus, anterior thalamus, and cingulate gyrus, form circuits important for emotional processing and expression. The amygdala plays a key role in fear and aggression. Other structures like the hypothalamus, prefrontal cortex, and autonomic nervous system are also involved in emotions and physiological arousal. Various neurotransmitters, including monoamines, peptides, GABA, and glutamate mediate emotional processes in the brain.
An Introduction to Neurotransmitter System
1. The document discusses neurotransmitters, which are endogenous chemicals that transmit signals between neurons.
2. It identifies the conditions for a chemical to be classified as a neurotransmitter and discusses the major neurotransmitter systems and their functions.
3. The major neurotransmitters are classified as small molecule transmitters like acetylcholine, serotonin, dopamine, and amino acids or large molecule transmitters like neuropeptides. Their roles in neurotransmission and disorders are also summarized.
Neurotransmitters
Neurotransmitters are chemical messengers that transmit signals between neurons. They include acetylcholine, dopamine, serotonin, glutamate, GABA, and others. Neurotransmitters are synthesized and stored in neurons then released into the synaptic cleft in response to an action potential. They bind to receptors on the postsynaptic neuron and are then inactivated by reuptake or degradation to terminate their effects. Common neurological disorders involve imbalances in neurotransmitters, such as Parkinson's disease being linked to low dopamine levels and Myasthenia gravis involving antibodies against acetylcholine receptors.

Observability Concepts EVERY Developer Should Know -- DeveloperWeek Europe.pdf

While the dev and ops silo continues to crumble….many organizations still relegate monitoring & observability as the purview of ops, infra and SRE teams. This is a mistake - achieving a highly observable system requires collaboration up and down the stack.
I, a former op, would like to extend an invitation to all application developers to join the observability party will share these foundational concepts to build on:
