SUMMARY:Upstairs/downstairs in our brains - What’s running our show?
 \, Chaos & Complex Systems Seminar\, Deric Bownds\, UW Department of Z
 oology
DESCRIPTION:This talk starts with some brief brain 101 elementary anat
 omy and then offers a cherry picking review of  recent trends in brain
  systems research that correlate what is going on in our brains with o
 ur behaviors. We want to know what normally makes us tick\,  what dist
 ortions might underlie addictive\, impulsive\, aggressive\, stressed\,
  depressed\, or anxious behaviors\, and what therapies might counter t
 hese distortions.   I will focus on structure-activity-behavior correl
 ations in three brain state distinctions that are currently being emph
 asized:   Upstairs/downstairs and attentional/default mode systems tha
 t are a spontaneous part of our normal behavioral repertoire\, and the
  cognitive therapy or meditation systems whose training\, development\
 , and expression can alter them.
