The Nervous System Is a Team, Not a Switch

The nervous system is not a collection of isolated switches. It is a
coordinated communication and regulation network.
In this opening episode, Professor Mechanism and Professor Method map the
central and peripheral nervous systems, distinguish somatic from autonomic
functions, and correct the idea that sympathetic activity is simply “bad”
while parasympathetic activity is always “good.” A veteran driving example
connects PTSD, mTBI, attention, physiological arousal, and measurement.
You will practice separating an observation—such as a rise in heart rate—from
the causal explanation you might be tempted to assign to it.
Learning goals
