Dont try to upload Y tube video to the media library unless it is a MP4 video. Just copy the embed code (if available) or video URL and copy and paste it on the body of the post you are creating, just like a text post. Sent you an email as well. Sam

Deepthie, I am interested to know whose fMRI will still light up the VTA and Caudate nucleus.
However, I must confess that I like everything about this clip.

Eddie- My medical brain is dead for all practical purposes !
Tell me – what is VTA ?
fMRI– is MRI with an enhancing dye ?
I like ALL Hindi movies – love the Make Believe World — takes the pain of REAL Life to Another Realm , so to speak , and makes one carry on living in a Make Believe World , and Live in This World Happily Ever After !

fMRI is functional MRI..VTA is ventral tegmental area in the mid brain.The VTA has a significant number of A10 cells which produce Dopamine.The mystery of Romantic love is related to the production of Dopamine.For an inexplicable reason ,falling in love results in the complex interaction by a network of connections from the cerebral cortex to the Caudate nucleus and the VTA resulting in the production of Dopamine.This causes the intense craving and a continuous state on “need”” and craving.The same chemical causes other addictions too.When you are in love, fMRI will light up the tegmentum,Caudate nucleus and the VTA.The is the chemical story of romantic love.Visually and acoustically it is “ Piyu Boole Piya Bhole.

Hi Eddie
Did not know that you are a Hindi movie fan. I am one, of course I need the subtitles to follow the dialogue.

HI Eddie- Many thanks for the Neuro Lesson on how the brain functions when you are in love !
Our Old Profs– will be pleased to know, that 50 yrs later, we are still learning Neuro !
Who was our Neuro Prof ? was it Daya Samarasinghe ?
I do recall , spending a whole vacation time during year 2 , dissecting a brain ( that I bought for Rs 10 from the Anatomy Block ) with Rose, and Donnie at Rose’s older sister’s place at Jawatte R, where she was staying at that time !
We had more fun just being together than dissecting the darn brain and learning any thing –
So much so for Brain Dissection !
I do recall vaguely this Ventral Tegmental Area of the brain .
Of course, we all know the Dopamine stuff .
Perhaps you might want to test those who are Addicted to Work and just cannot ‘ call it quits ‘– who say they cannot come to the RU 2018- because they cannot get time off from work at age 74- 75– give me a break !!
These Work A Holics ( Addicts like Alcohalics and Gamblers , ) who are unable to help them selves .
So, are you going to test us all when we meet in Beruwala to see, how many of us will ‘light up ‘ ? !!!
This is will be a fun project for sure !
Thanks Eddie- for the Neuro Lesson 101 – eaglemd

Deepthie, Unfortunately The fMRI has not been done on workaholics yet!.The studies to date have been done on those in love and those still pining for their lost love.Very interesting.Those who had loved and lost too still showed activity in these areas when reminded of the love.
Regarding our times in the Anatomy block,was it all a waste of time.!!.Most Anatomy lectures and demonstrations are now done on full body MRI on large screens, the full size of anatomical dissecting Guerney.You can dissect the body from skin to marrow in every conceivable section with the touch of the screen.We do not need Burke and Hare anymore!
Pretty cheap that you got a brain for your dissection for. Rs10.,,
I hope you did not get other anatomical parts cheaper!
I think we should admire our colleagues who are still working but they must mix pleasure with their work too.
