    Neuroscience, game theory, apes - Colin Camerer

And he presents an unexpected study that shows chimpanzees might just be better at it than we are. (Filmed at TEDxCalTech.)Talk by Colin Camerer. Learn more about your ad choices.

    The mechanics behind Einstein's most celebrated equation - Lindsay DeMarchi and Fabio Pacucci

    Learn more at https://brilliant.org/TedEd--Ever since Einstein published his Special Theory of Relativity, one equation has been the bane of humans hoping to explore the stars: E=mc². In addition to informing our understanding of gravity, space, and time, this formula implies that traveling at or beyond light speed is impossible. Why is that?

    Why should you read “Moby Dick”? - Sascha Morrell

    Dive into Herman Melville’s classic novel “Moby Dick,” the story of Captain Ahab’s hunt for revenge against the white whale who bit off his leg. --A mountain separating two lakes. A room papered floor to ceiling with bridal satins. The lid of an immense snuffbox. These seemingly unrelated images take us on a tour of a sperm whale’s head in Herman Melville’s "Moby Dick." Though the book features pirates, typhoons, high-speed chases, and giant squid, it’s anything but a conventional seafaring adventure. Sascha Morrell digs into the classic novel.Lesson by Sascha Morrell, directed by Martina Meštrović.Animator's website: https://vimeo.com/martinamestrovicSign up for our newsletter: http://bit.ly/TEDEdNewsletterSupport us on Patreon: http://bit.ly/TEDEdPatreonFollow us on Facebook: http://bit.ly/TEDEdFacebookFind us on Twitter: http://bit.ly/TEDEdTwitterPeep us on Instagram: http://bit.ly/TEDEdInstagramView full lesson: https://ed.ted.com/lessons/why-should-you-read-moby-dick-sascha-morrellThank you so much to our patrons for your support!

    What your feces reveals about your health - Hannibal Person

    Travel into the digestive system to see how food is turned into waste, and what causes the different colors and textures of poop.--The average person poops out approximately 11,030 kilograms of cumulative waste in a lifetime. That’s the equivalent of more than 6 SUVs. Oftentimes, that poop is brown. Why is that, considering all the comestibles one consumes? And what’s going on when poop appears in different colors and textures? Hannibal Person explains the colorful choreography going on inside your bowels.Lesson by Hannibal Person, directed by Flávia Godoy, Lívia Serri Francoio.Support Our Non-Profit Mission----------------------------------------------Support us on Patreon: http://bit.ly/TEDEdPatreonCheck out our merch: http://bit.ly/TEDEDShop----------------------------------------------Connect With Us----------------------------------------------Sign up for our newsletter: http://bit.ly/TEDEdNewsletterFollow us on Facebook: http://bit.ly/TEDEdFacebookFind us on Twitter: http://bit.ly/TEDEdTwitterPeep us on Instagram: http://bit.ly/TEDEdInstagram----------------------------------------------Keep Learning----------------------------------------------View full lesson: https://ed.ted.com/lessons/what-your-poop-can-tell-you-about-your-health-hannibal-personDig deeper with additional resources: https://ed.ted.com/lessons/what-your-poop-can-tell-you-about-your-health-hannibal-person/digdeeperAnimator's website: https://www.liviaserrifrancoio.com & https://www.flaviagodoy.com----------------------------------------------Thank you so much to our patrons for your support!
