    I wish I could be paying you guys instead of my University for all this helpful information! The material was presented in such a simplistic, yet efficient manner.

  • @ST3RDz
    I love your analogies so much lol. Great video as always!!!
  • @hungryasian9883
    so direct pathway is only for decrease inhibition of thalamus to increase movement, but indirect pathway has 2 systems so it can control thalamus to be active (increased movement) and not overly active (to decrease movement)? Please help me understand better
  • is it me or the excitatory part of the strium comes from no where? or are we assuming already there was a signal from the motor cortex? or are we impllying an added acitivty from substantia nigra pars compacta suddenly changes the movement inhibition?
  • @tota9868
    Perfect 😭 Thank u so much!!!!
  • Thanks so much for this video I understand this topic so much better now! One thing I'm unsure about though is from what I can understand, both pathways start with the striatum, so how does the striatum know which pathway to initiate?
