are fascinated by the brain,
잘 설명하지 못합니다.
about how the brain works
가르치지 않기 때문이죠.
neuroscience in schools.
why is that the equipment
너무 복잡하고 비싸서
다뤄질 수 있기 때문입니다.
universities and large institutions.
to access the brain,
여러분의 인생을 바쳐야 합니다.
as a graduate student
to get access to these tools.
신경과학자가 되기 위해서요.
because one out of five of us,
신경 장애를 가지고 있기 때문입니다.
will have a neurological disorder.
for these diseases.
치료법이 전혀 없어요.
what we should be doing
초기 교육 절차를 돌아보고
in the eduction process
so that in the future,
가르치는 것 입니다.
생각하게 할 수 있게 하기 위해서요.
becoming a brain scientist.
실험실 동료 마줄로와 생각했습니다.
my lab mate Tim Marzullo and myself,
this complex equipment that we have
enough and affordable enough
뇌 학습을 위해 가져간다면
or a high school student,
in the discovery of neuroscience.
배울 수 있지 않을까 하고요.
a company called Backyard Brains
회사를 창업해서
and I brought some here tonight,
오늘 제가 몇가지를 가지고 왔어요.
(Applause)
성함이 어떻게 되시죠? (박수)
to record from your brain.
당신의 두뇌 속을 녹화할 꺼예요.
your arm for science,
I'm putting electrodes on your arm,
올려 놓을 거예요.
brain, what am I doing with your arm?
팔로 무엇을 하려는 건지요.
신경세포가 있습니다.
inside your brain right now.
back and forth, and chemical messages.
화학 신호를 주고 받습니다.
right here in your motor cortex
여기 운동 피질에 있습니다.
when you move your arm like this.
신호를 보낼겁니다.
across your corpus callosum,
통해서 내려갈거예요.
to your lower motor neuron
당신의 근육들로요.
전기 방출이 검출 될겁니다.
is going to be picked up
우리는 들을 수 있을겁니다.
is going to be doing.
들어 보신 적이 있나요?
what your brain sounds like?
손을 움켜 쥐어보세요.
So go ahead and squeeze your hand.
happening right here.
당신의 운동 단위 입니다.
근육 밖으로 일어나는 운동 단위입니다.
that are happening
out to her muscle right here,
전기 활동을 보고 계신겁니다.
that's happening here.
이것들 중 하나를 보실 수 있어요.
and try to see one of them.
잠재 운동 활동에서 잠시 멈췄습니다.
happening right now inside of your brain.
but let's get it better.
더 재미있게 해봅시다.
신호를 내려 보낼겁니다.
down to your muscles right here.
a signal down to your muscles.
근육으로 내려 보낼겁니다.
a nerve that's right here
있는 곳으로 돌아갑니다.
these three fingers,
곳으로 올라갑니다.
that we might be able
피부에 충분히 가까워서
수신할 수 있습니다.
going out to your hand
손에 주입할 수 있죠.
when your brain tells your hand to move.
손을 움직일 수 있습니다.
your free will
자유 의지를 가져갈 수 있습니다.
any control over this hand.
통제할 수 없을 거예요.
아마 이정도 쯤에 있을거예요.
참여할 지 모르셨을 거예요.
대인간 접속기에 연결 시킬겁니다.
and we're going to plug it in
to squeeze your hand again.
over here so that you get the --
당신을 여기 연결시킬거예요.
a little bit weird at first,
(Laughter)
and someone else becomes your agent,
딴 사람이 된 것같은 느낌이요.
so go ahead and give it a squeeze.
자, 손을 쥐어 보세요.
and turn your hand.
MG: Nope.
미구엘: 아니요.
MG: A little bit.
미구엘: 조금요.
and it's also controlling his arm,
남자 분의 팔을 모두 통제하고 있어요.
if I took over my control of your hand?
무슨 일이 일어날까요?
such a good sport.
all across the world --
the neuro-revolution.

Why you should listen
As half of Backyard Brains, neuroscientist and engineer Greg Gage builds the SpikerBox -- a small rig that helps kids understand the electrical impulses that control the nervous system. He's passionate about helping students understand (viscerally) how our brains and our neurons work, because, as he said onstage at TED2012, we still know very little about how the brain works -- and we need to start inspiring kids early to want to know more.
Before becoming a neuroscientist, Gage worked as an electrical engineer making touchscreens. As he told the Huffington Post: "Scientific equipment in general is pretty expensive, but it's silly because before [getting my PhD in neuroscience] I was an electrical engineer, and you could see that you could make it yourself. So we started as a way to have fun, to show off to our colleagues, but we were also going into classrooms around that time and we thought, wouldn't it be cool if you could bring these gadgets with us so the stuff we were doing in advanced Ph.D. programs in neuroscience, you could also do in fifth grade?" His latest pieces of gear: the Roboroach, a cockroach fitted with an electric backpack that makes it turn on command, and BYB SmartScope, a smartphone-powered microscope.
