Abstract:
Cancer pain is one of the most common
reasons for ED visits and hospitalization
and has been linked to increased 30-day
mortality. Opioids are necessary in almost
all patients for the management of their
pain. Despite that, cancer pain is
inadequately treated in approximately 56
to 82% of patients. Using a
multidisciplinary approach, minimally
invasive therapies can help relieve pain
and improve quality of life.

ZOOM:
https://uchealth.zoom.us/j/86944241966?pwd=UkhGdGFLamorbys1Sk8xd1E5K29UZz09
Abstract:
Breast
radiologists represent the face of
imaging 3.0 and are key players in
advocating for patients to reduce
these disparities.
Diversity-related barriers for
breast imaging patients, as they
journey from screening to
survivorship, include impediments
to access and quality of care,
gaps in communication, and lack of
knowledge in both providers and
patients. Potential strategies for
overcoming these specific barriers
include “culturally tailored”
nurse navigators, mobile
mammography, improved
communication, patient and
provider education, and breast
radiologist involvement in
advocacy efforts promoting
diversity.

Abstract: Informed
consent is ubiquitous in clinical
workflows, particularly more procedural
specialties, and is at the core of our
relationship with patients. Despite its
importance, studies have repeatedly shown
consent practices to be limited in
healthcare, and radiology is not immune to
these challenges. Drs. Isabel Newton and
Eric Keller have been working through a
not-for-profit organization to improve
consent practices for image-guided
procedure and have developed a practical
ICONSENT curriculum to better engage the
radiology community about these issues. In
this grand rounds, Drs. Newton and Keller
will discuss the practical challenges of
ideal consent practices in radiology
workflows as well as introducing a
framework to improve consent practices in
radiology and beyond.

LECTURE: AI Design: Ethical
Challenges & Impact on Healthcare Inequity
ABSTRACT
The design process
for any new disruptive technology,
including Artificial Intelligence
solutions, critically shapes the ultimate
clinical outcome of the tool. Embedding
diverse thought leadership and considering
many differing perspectives ultimately
shapes the way a tool impacts patient
care. Technology, such as artificial
intelligence, has the potential to either
deeper or lessen healthcare inequities. By
carefully examining the technology design
process, we can begin to understand how
this technology can change the way we
practice medicine and deliver excellent
care to our heterogeneous patient
populations.
Session objectives:
1.
Explore the concept of diversity and its
relationship to healthcare inequity.
2.
Talk about how diversity is or is not
woven into the AI design process.
3.
Explore how diversity ultimately shapes
the technology we produce, and the
solutions we implement.
4.
Understand how diversity in AI design can
impact patient centered care.

LECTURE: Breast cancer
screening controversy: update with recent
CNBSS revelations
ABSTRACT
Eight randomized
controlled trials (RCTs) were conducted in
the 1960s to 1980s to evaluate the
efficacy of screening mammography to
decrease mortality from breast cancer
[1-7]. All trials confirmed significant
benefits of screening mammography except
the two in the Canadian National Breast
Screening Study (CNBSS), CNBSS-1 for women
40-49 and CNBSS-2 for women 50-59. In
fact, a slight mortality increase was
noted in the CNBSS-1 trial in the
screening arm at 11-14 years of follow-up
[8]. Due to the large size of the CNBSS-1
trial and the specific targeted age range
of participants, it continues to heavily
influence guidelines for breast cancer
screening[15] of women age 40-49[10, 16].
Multiple experts have hypothesized that
the results of CNBSS-1, indicating no
benefit or even possible harm related to
screening mammography, reflect both design
flaws and the failure to adhere to the
standards of RCTs during day-to-day
operations of the CNBSS[17-21]. The
purpose of this presentation is to
consider if the CNBSS trials were valid
studies of breast cancer screening in the
era in which they were conducted. And, if
so, do their findings translate to current
screening practice?
OBJECTIVES
1. review the basic
standards of RCTs
2. critically
consider new, eyewitness accounts of the
daily management, operations, methodology
regarding inclusion and exclusion
criteria, and randomization during the
CNBSS
3. determine if the
CNBSS remains scientifically valid for
establishing population screening
guidelines

LECTURE: MRI of the Spine in
Axial Spondyloarthritis
In this lecture, the
imaging appearances of spondyloarthritis
in the spine, especially on MRI will be
reviewed. The appearance and distribution
of active inflammatory disease and
structural damage changes will be
discussed in comparison to differential
diagnoses, especially disc degeneration
and DISH, as well as other conditions. The
lecture will conclude with a brief
discussion of Classification of Axial
Spondyloarthritis.
Objectives:
At the end of the
lecture, participants will be familiar
with common and uncommon spinal imaging
findings of axial spondyloarthritis, be
able to distinguish axSpA from other
conditions, and be aware of some pitfalls
of interpretation and the limitations of
imaging and classification.

ABSTRACT:
The idea of Total
Body PET was first suggested in 1993.
However, it was not until the turn of the
century that effective technologies were
available to bring this idea to reality,
and it was not until 2015 that funds
became available to build the first
prototype. This presentation will briefly
describe the history of the project, and
will present some of the benefits,
challenges and opportunities presented by
Total Body PET.

Post-Covid fibrosis
Seth Kligerman, MD
Professor
Division Chief of
Cardiothoracic Radiology
Department of
Radiology
University of
California, San Diego
Abstract:
Organization,
characterized by fibroblast proliferation,
is a common and nearly universal response
to lung injury whether it is focal or
diffuse. Despite the vast range of
injurious agents, the lung’s response to
injury is quite limited, with a similar
pattern of reaction seen radiologically
and histologically regardless of the
underlying cause. Although there is a
tendency to divide organization into
distinct entities, the underlying injury
to the alveolar epithelial basement
membrane is a uniting factor in these
processes. This pattern of lung injury is
seen in the organizing phase of diffuse
alveolar damage, organizing pneumonia
(OP), acute fibrinous and organizing
pneumonia, and certain types of fibrotic
lung disease. In addition, although
organization can heal without significant
injury, in some instances it progresses to
fibrosis, which can be severe. When
fibrosis due to organization is present,
other histologic and imaging patterns,
such as those seen in nonspecific
interstitial pneumonia, can develop,
reflecting that fibrosis can be a sequela
of organization. This talk reviews the
histologic and radiologic findings of
organization in lung injury due to diffuse
alveolar damage, OP, and acute fibrinous
and organizing pneumonia and helps
radiologists understand that the
histologic and radiologic findings depend
on the degree of injury and the subsequent
healing response.

On behalf of the
Physics Department at SDSU, I (Usha Sinha,
Chair of Physics), would like to invite
you all for the annual Doc Morris Public
Lecture on April 22, 2022. This year
we are honored to have Dr Peter Basser,
Associate Scientific Director for Imaging
and Genomic Integrity, NICHD IRP, as the
speaker. His talk is entitled,
“Invention of Diffusion Tensor Imaging
(DTI) and a Glimpse of What's Ahead”.
Details of the talk and a reception before
the talk are included in the enclosed
flyer. While we hope to see you in person,
there is a Zoom option (link available
when you RSVP – see the flyer for the QR
code).
Peter Basser is a
legend in DTI and microstructure imaging
and needs no introduction. He is widely
known for the invention, development, and
clinical implementation of MR diffusion
tensor imaging (DTI), diffusion tensor
"stream line tractography," and other
quantitative MRI methods for performing in
vivo MRI histology or "microstructure
imaging". Dr. Basser was the
recipient of the Gold Medal from the
International Society of Magnetic
Resonance in Medicine (ISMRM).
I wanted to add a few
words about Doc Morris in whose honor we
have this annual lecture. Doc got his PhD
in Physics from UC Berkeley and almost
right after, joined the SDSU Physics
Department. He was a brilliant
physicist who devoted 60+ years to
teaching. He taught an Advanced
Physics Lab class that was the capstone
lab for our majors-- each
experiment required thought and work
equivalent to a mini-thesis and each
experiment was modeled after a Nobel Prize
winning experiment. He challenged
the students to strive higher and decades
later, generations of students recall his
lab as the single most important course in
their entire academic life-- that his lab
made them choose Physics for their future
career. In fact, the current Chair of
Physics at UCSD, Prof. Maple, is a former
student of Doc Morris. Doc
volunteered and taught four years even
after retirement-- he was 87 then (he
could be seen setting up the experiments
late in the evening). He was a
legend- I am glad I had the privilege of
knowing him.

Advanced structural heart and thoracic
imaging: Lessons at the interface of
artificial intelligence, quantitative
imaging, and technology innovation
Abstract:
Radiology has
traditionally lived at the center of
technology innovation, from pioneering in
its early days of innovation in
cardiovascular intervention and surgery,
led by many interdisciplinary giants. As
new disciplines of angiography, CT, and
MRI emerged, these early pioneers
recognized the weaknesses in the medical
practices of the day, developed and
applied new technologies to the betterment
of the care of their patients -- which
have become today's standards of care.
Engineering and advanced computation are
two of the new disciplines of the modern
era, which undoubtedly will transform
medical practice over the coming decade. I
will present our lab's work innovating at
the intersection of these new fields and
clinical cardiac and thoracic imaging,
which help to place UC San Diego at the
forefront of clinical care.
At the end of the
presentation, attendees will:
•
Improve familiarity of methods for
developing and evaluating imaging
artificial intelligence (AI) algorithms.
•
Improve familiarity with applications of
imaging artificial intelligence currently
in development and use at UCSD.
•
Improve familiarity with new quantitative
imaging services created at UCSD, enabled
by deployment of new CT, MRI and AI
technologies.

The ABC’s of Breast Cancer
Abstract:
One of the most promising areas in
medicine today is the diagnosis and
treatment of breast cancer. Due to the
non-invasive nature of medical imaging, it
continues to be an integral part of
disease diagnosis and treatment decisions.
With the addition of biologic factors in
the American Joint Committee Cancer
Staging Manual (8th edition),
we are in a new era of defining breast
cancer. For radiologists to continue to
add value to the multidisciplinary
approach of patient centered care, they
need to understand the molecular subtypes
of invasive breast cancer. This
presentation will discuss the different
subtypes and explain the incidence,
imaging appearance, treatment response and
overall survival of the patient.

Healthcare Cybersecurity: Where Bits &
Bytes Meet Flesh & Blood
Abstract:
Over the last fifty years healthcare has
undergone significant digital
transformation, with computerized
workflows constituting a major part of
patient care. Reliance on technologies
such as electronic health records (EHR),
digital picture archiving and
communication systems (PACS), laboratory
information systems (LIS), and connected
medical devices has grown to supplant
manual paper-based systems for many
healthcare delivery organizations (HDOs)
across the globe. Inevitable flaws in the
software and hardware of computer systems
can result in vulnerabilities that alter
the intended function of a system. Cyber
attackers can exploit these
vulnerabilities to steal information,
disrupt services, or corrupt data. The
protection of systems from cyber-attacks
is called cybersecurity and is an
increasingly important practice for modern
healthcare.
Objectives:
1.
Become familiar with hacking concepts such
as vulnerability, exploit, CIA Triad, etc.
2.
Understand how cyber security
vulnerabilities can lead to breaches of
protected health information and patient
safety/care quality concerns.
BIO:
Dr.
Christian Dameff is an Emergency
Physician, Clinical Informaticist, and
researcher. Dr. Dameff is also a hacker
and security researcher interested in the
intersection of healthcare, patient
safety, and cybersecurity. He has spoken
at some of the world’s most prominent
hacker forums including DEFCON, RSA,
Blackhat, Derbycon, BSides: Las Vegas, and
is one of the cofounders of the CyberMed
Summit, a novel multidisciplinary
conference with emphasis on medical device
and infrastructure cybersecurity.
Published cybersecurity topics include
hacking 911 systems, HL7 messaging
vulnerabilities, and malware.

Imaging cerebral hemodynamics in typical
and abnormal aging
Date and Time: Tuesday,
October 12, 2021, 12 pm (PST) via Zoom
Abstract:
White matter plays a critical role in
supporting human cognitive function, and
white matter lesions have been implicated
as a contributor to cognitive decline in
Alzheimer’s disease (AD). While they are
often presumed to be of vascular origin,
physiological mechanisms underlying these
lesions remain unclear. As the world’s
population continues to age, understanding
microvascular hemodynamics in typical
versus abnormal aging could be critical
for understanding vascular contributions
to cognitive decline and for guiding the
development of preventative therapies.
During this talk, I will discuss 1) recent
magnetic resonance imaging (MRI)
approaches for characterizing gray and
white matter hemodynamics in typical aging
and 2) potential microvascular mechanisms
that may contribute to the development of
white matter lesions and consequent
cognitive decline in older adults at
elevated risk for AD.

and NC State University. He completed a
postdoctoral fellowship at Vanderbilt
University Medical Center, studying
hemodynamic sequalae of sickle cell
disease and arterial steno-occlusive
disease. His current research is focused
on understanding microvascular mechanisms
associated with white matter lesions in
typical aging and in adults at elevated
risk for AD.

Title:
Augmented Reality: potential and impact of
using body donors’ CT scans in medical

Abstract and
Session Objectives:
Augmented reality (AR) has recently been
utilized as an integrative teaching tool
in medical curricula given its ability to
view virtual objects while interacting
with the physical environment. The
evidence for AR in
medical training however, is limited. For
this reason, the purpose of this mixed
methods study was to evaluate the
implementation of overlaying
donor-specific diagnostic imaging (DSDI)
onto corresponding body donors in a
fourth-year, dissection-based, medical
elective course entitled Anatomy for
Surgeons (AFS). Students registered in AFS
were separated into groups; either
receiving DSDI displayed on Microsoft
HoloLens AR head-mounted display (n = 12),
or DSDI displayed on iPad (n =15). To test
for change in spatial ability, students
completed an anatomical mental rotation
test (AMRT) prior to and following the AFS
course. Students also participated in a
focus group discussion and completed a
survey at the end of AFS, analyzed through
thematic triangulation and an unpaired,
Mann Whitney U test respectively, both
addressing dissection experience, DSDI
relevancy to dissection, and use of AR in
anatomical education. Although
statistically significant differences were
not found when comparing student group
AMRT scores, survey and discussion data
suggest that the HoloLens had improved the
students’ understanding of, and their
spatial orientation of, anatomical
relationships. Trunk dissection quality
grades were significantly higher with
students using the HoloLens. Although
students mentioned difficulties with
HoloLens software, with faculty
assistance, training and enhanced software
development, there is potential for this
AR tool to contribute to improved
dissection quality and an immersive
learning experience.

Title: Impact of the COVID-19
Pandemic: Insights from Breast Imaging
Abstract:
The coronavirus
disease 2019 (COVID-19) pandemic has had a
profound impact on radiology in the United
States. The
subspecialty of breast imaging is no
exception,
and the patient-facing nature of
the field poses unique challenges to safe
care delivery and education during the
pandemic. This lecture will discuss the
adaptations of breast imaging centers to
the pandemic and the impacts on breast
imaging education, with a focus on the
early portions of the pandemic. The
lecture will also explore how lessons from
breast imaging may be applied to other
radiology subspecialties.
Session Objectives:
1. Summarize the impact of the COVID-19
pandemic on breast imaging volumes and
discuss the resulting financial impact on
physicians and staff.
2. Identify common safety measures
implemented by breast imaging centers as
they adapted to the COVID-19 pandemic.
3. Discuss the impact of the COVID-19
pandemic on breast imaging education as it
relates to medical students, radiology
residents, and breast imaging fellows.
4. Explore how lessons from the impact on
breast imaging may be applied to other
radiology subspecialties

likely to significantly impact the
practice of radiology in the years to
come. We will present a diverse portfolio
of technologies, from metamaterial-based
media that facilitate the passage of
ultrasound through cortical and trabecular
bone for treatment and imaging, to
functionalized nanobubbles that easily
pass the blood-brain barrier and may
selectively bind to tumors, and some
recent advancements in endovascular
interventional devices that may facilitate
deeper access into the peripheral and
neurovasculature. Questions regarding
problems the audience members face in
daily practice are welcomed, as is
discussion of how these advancements may
benefit your work.

Sean M. Tutton, MD
FSIR
Professor of
Radiology, Orthopedic Surgery, and
Palliative Medicine
Vice Chairman of
Faculty Affairs, Department of Radiology
Medical College of
Wisconsin
Bio:
Dr. Tutton received
his degree from the New Jersey School of
Medicine and completed his internship,
residency and fellowship at the Feinberg
School of Medicine, Northwestern
University in Chicago IL.
He joined the Medical College of Wisconsin
in 2005 where he established his practice
focusing on palliative interventional
therapies in cancer and non-cancer
musculoskeletal diseases. Dr. Tutton
received board certification in Hospice
and Palliative Care in 2012. He holds
joint faculty appointments in Orthopedics
and Palliative Medicine.
Dr. Tutton is an
active member of the Sarcoma Disease Team
at MCW focusing on bone and soft tissue
tumor related pain and skeletal
complications. His research focus is on
ablation of soft tissue tumors including
Desmoids and ablation and stabilization
for patients suffering from painful cancer
related spine and pelvic fractures.
Abstract:
Desmoid Fibromatosis/
Desmoids are benign locally aggressive
tumors, affecting younger patients,
occurring sporadically or less commonly
associated with familial polyposis
syndrome (FAP/Gardner’s syndrome). They
occur along facial planes and aponeurotic
tissue. This orphan tumor is grouped with
the sarcomas as it is a soft tissue tumor
of fibroblast origin. Historically,
surgery was the chosen therapy, but
recurrences have been seen in up to 40% in
some series. Currently, surveillance is
the preferred therapy in asymptomatic
tumors that are not progressing rapidly.
More recently, percutaneous ablative
therapies have become utilized in
symptomatic tumors as a “least worst”
option over cytotoxic chemotherapy,
radiation, and surgery in this young
active population. We will review the
current imaging, and treatment strategies
of desmoids and recent changes in the NCCN
guidelines.

Lecture Title:
Understanding the mechanisms of high
altitude pulmonary edema: new insights
from proton MRI
Abstract &
Objectives:
High-altitude
pulmonary edema, HAPE, is a potentially
fatal lung edema that affects individuals
who travel rapidly to high altitude.
Although many individuals making a rapid
ascent will develop findings consistent
with interstitial pulmonary edema, 2% of
subjects develop alveolar flooding
consistent with HAPE, requiring treatment.
The biggest predictor of development of
HAPE on future ascents is a prior
history of the disease, and these
individuals are considered to be
HAPE-susceptible. This presentation
will focus on how functional magnetic
resonance imaging has provided insights
into the mechanism(s) of HAPE. For decades
it was proposed that HAPE results from
uneven hypoxic pulmonary vasoconstriction
of precapillary arterioles increasing
resistance and reducing flow in some
segments and increasing pressure and flow
in non-constricted segments. This in turn
leads to mechanical stress failure of
pulmonary capillaries and a subsequent
inflammatory response exacerbating the
leak. Studies using arterial spin labeling
to measure perfusion have shown that
pulmonary blood flow becomes more
heterogeneous when HAPE-susceptible
subjects but not HAPE resistant or normal
controls are exposed to acute isobaric
hypoxia. This provides evidence that
uneven hypoxic pulmonary vasoconstriction
is indeed a feature of those that are
HAPE-susceptible. One explanation for
uneven hypoxic pulmonary vasoconstriction
is increased heterogeneity of ventilation
leading to an uneven stimulus to the
response. Additional work using an oxygen
enhanced ventilation MR technique,
specific ventilation imaging, has shown
that contrary to predictions, ventilation
is more uniform in HAPE-susceptible
subjects compared to HAPE-resistant
subjects. This implicates abnormalities in
the distribution of vascular smooth muscle
as the most likely underlying abnormality
in those susceptible to HAPE.
The objectives of
this presentation is to provide a
foundation for how functional lung imaging
can be used to understand mechanisms of
disease.

Title: Applied Ethics in Radiology:
Practical Solutions to Challenging
Situations
Abstract:
Radiology, like all fields medicine, has
challenging ethical situations that can
arise in daily practice. Traditional
approaches to ethics tend to be general
and ’top-down’ based on abstract
principles that can feel distant from
daily practice in radiology. Conversely,
applied ethics is a bottom-up approach
where one explores perceptions and
experiences surround salient ethical
issues and uses this information in tandem
with ethical theory to develop practical
tools and workflows to navigate these
challenging situations better. Dr. Keller
and his team has been trialing this
approach in radiology, particularly
interventional radiology as means of
making ethics more useful in daily
practice. In this session, we will explore
at least four issues relevant to
radiology, including futility, consent,
research ethics, and artificial
intelligence. Each topic will start with a
case allowing the audience to anonymously
respond what they would do. We will then
discuss each issue with time at the end to
discuss other ethical issues on people’s
minds.

Lecture:
NanoEngineering gone viral: plant
virus-based contrast agents and
therapeutics
Abstract:
Nanoscale engineering
is revolutionizing the way we detect,
prevent and treat diseases. Viruses are
playing a special role in these
developments because they can function as
prefabricated nanoparticles. We utilize
and build-upon the high-precision
assemblies of the viral capsids and
utilize them as platform technologies,
engineered and repurposed for a desired
function. More specifically, we turned
toward plant viruses as a platform
nanotechnology. We have developed a
library of plant virus-based nanoparticles
and through structure-function studies we
are beginning to understand how to tailor
these materials appropriately for
applications targeting human, veterinary
and plant health. Through chemical
biology, we have developed virus-based
delivery systems carrying medically
relevant cargo enabling tissue-specific
imaging and treatment. We have developed
contrast agents for MR imaging achieving
r=80 mM-1 s-1 and
enabling imaging of cardiosvascular
disease and cancer in mouse models. A
particular exciting avenue is the
development of plant virus-like particle
platforms for cancer immunotherapy. The
idea pursued is an ‘in situ vaccination’
to stimulate local and systemic anti-tumor
immune responses to treat established
disease, and most importantly to induce
immune memory to protect patients from
outgrowth of metastasis and recurrence of
the disease. In light of the COVID-19
pandemic, we have also turned toward the
development of diagnostic tools and
vaccine candidates.
In this lecture, I
will highlight engineering design
principles employed to synthesize the
next-generation contrast agents and
nanotherapeutics using plant virus-based
platform technologies, and I will discuss
the evaluation of such in preclinical
mouse models and canine patients.

approaches and tricks on how to obtain the
small CEST signals in a reproducible
manner. Also with regard to ultra-high
fields, where CEST has many benefits, but
several challenges. Applications in brain
tumors and stroke are discussed, as well
as the next steps necessary to bring this
technique to broader clinical
investigation at different field
strengths.

Objectives:
Abstract:
Large academic
radiology departments require careful
consideration of the governance structure
that will enable its long-term success.
Multiple leadership axes integrate
responsibilities among numerous role
groups and constituents. Some axes provide
hierarchical responsibility for faculty
affairs, while others are focused
thematically on clinical service delivery
and other functions necessary for
advancing non-clinical domains.
Leadership development and mentoring
programs are sound investments in future
leaders, and wellness programs insure a
stable and healthy workforce. Strategic
planning with implementation teams
designed to meet the department’s goals
and objectives help align the department
on achieving its long-term vision.
Key leadership skills must be fostered to
enable department leaders to navigate the
complex relationships inherent to highly
matrixed organizations.

Neurology of Human Nature - Reviving
the Golden age
GUEST SPEAKER:
V.S Ramachandran,
MBBS
Director, Center for
Brain and Cognition
Distinguished
Professor, Distinguished Professor,
Psychology, Neurosciences
University of
California, San Diego
Dr. Ramachandran's
major areas of research are: cognitive
neuroscience, behavioral neurology - the
study of cognitive and perceptual deficits
in human neurological patients, neural
plasticity and "phantom limbs", stroke
rehabilitation, human visual
perception/cognition, and visual
psychophysics.
ABSTRACT:
There is still scope
for very simple low -tech experiments in
neurology. Many of the experiments
I’ll tell you about could have been done
by Aristotle ( and certainly by Broca
or Charcot ) but they weren't.
In this spirit we
will try revive the Golden age of
neurology harking back to Paul Broca,
Freud (Yes , Freud !) Goldstein, with the
torch being handed down by Norm
Geschwind to a Galaxy of modern
neurologists.
I will discuss five
sets of experiments:
1) phantom limbs -
beyond mirrors
2) Interpersonal
acquired referral of touch and
gargalesthesia
3) apotemnophilia;
somatoparaphrenia, etc
4) synesthesia-
why F is blue and G is yellow
5) constructing
calendars in your brain
We conclude by
suggesting that your calendar is enshrined
in a network connecting the angular
gyrus via inferior longitudinal fasciculus
with place and grid cells in hippocampus
and entorhinal cortex. Even
such notoriously nebulous topics like
social affinity and personality might be
partially mediated by the same structures
Two axiomatic
foundations of our discipline are:
1 ) connections are
hard wired ; no plasticity in adults
2)
autonomous hardwired modules - performing
serial hierarchical computations en route
to higher centers - culminating in
motor output
3) The human brain
evolved through the gradual
accumulation of adaptations
All these axioms are wrong.
The
sensorium is a fluctuating mosaic of
activity in a dynamic equilibrium with the
environment - with connections being
modified constantly in response to
environmental challenges. So called
modules interact not only with other
modules ( mirror feedback ) including
ones earlier in the hierarchy , but
with skin and bones ( CRPS ) and indeed
with other brains ( mirror neurons ) And
they evolved via the
misappropriation of structures evolved for
other functions and fortuitous
interactions between them. The gill
arches of fish morphed into 3 loose bones
in the jaws of reptiles ( allowing
consumption of huge prey and low BMR
) two of which became the tiny ear
bones - thus serving hearing instead
if chewing. This principle of co-opting
pre-existing structures for novel
functions is equally - if not more - true
for the human brain.

Objectives:
Abstract:
Many didactic
lectures induce a cognitive load in
learners out of proportion to the content
that they need to learn (or can learn)
during that teaching session. This
is due in part to the content, and in part
to the way it is displayed or presented.
By reducing the cognitive load on our
audience, we can increase long term
retention of information. This
lecture briefly summarizes some of the
science behind cognitive load as it
relates to presentations, and identifies
simple steps to reduce it while maximize
learning.
