Assistant Professor

I'm a neuroscientist and professor of neurobiology and ophthalmology and, by courtesy, psychiatry and behavioral sciences at Stanford School of Medicine. My work focuses on brain development, function, and neuroplasticity.

I host the Huberman Lab podcast, where we discuss science and science-based tools for everyday life.

Hat tip to everyone who is striving to be forward center of mass, building things, giving to the world and striving to be better. It takes guts and focus. Keep going. The rest is noise.

How important is having guts when pursuing success?

What are some tips for staying focused while striving for success?

The first episode of a six-episode special Huberman Lab Guest Series on sleep with Matthew Walker, PhD will air this Wednesday, April 3. The series will cover all aspects of sleep biology, best practices, and individualizing protocols—all at zero cost.

A new Huberman Lab 10 minute Non-Sleep Deep Rest (NSDR) protocol is now available in video and audio at zero-cost: https://lnkd.in/g2sW4WeD

Episode 2 of a 6-part Huberman Lab Guest Series on sleep with Matthew Walker, PhD, professor of neuroscience and psychology and founder of the Center for Human Sleep Science at the University of California, Berkeley is out now.

We discuss basic and advanced tools for improving sleep and explain how sleep quality is affected by temperature, light and dark, caffeine, alcohol, cannabis, nutrition, meal timing, and different medications.

Dr. Walker also provides strategies for coping with a poor night of sleep, wind-down routines, technology in the bedroom, insomnia, visualizations, and building sleep “confidence.”

We also discuss the current status of sleep research for developing advanced techniques to optimize sleep.

This episode provides numerous zero-cost behavioral protocols for improving sleep quality and restorative power, which can benefit daytime mood, energy, performance, and overall health.

Guest Series | Dr. Matthew Walker: Protocols to Improve Sleep Quality & Restoration

Episode 1 of a 6-part Huberman Lab Guest Series on sleep with Matthew Walker, PhD, professor of neuroscience and psychology and founder of the Center for Human Sleep Science at the University of California, Berkeley is out now.

The series covers all you want to know about sleep. It includes how to find your ideal sleep time, how much sleep you need, the best body position for efficient breathing and brain oxygenation during sleep, ways to fall back asleep quickly, sleep supplements, the role of sleep and dreaming, overcoming nightmares, jet lag, recovering lost sleep, and more.

Each subsequent episode in this six-episode series will be released on Wednesdays. As usual, regular Huberman Lab episodes will be out every Monday.

Guest Series | Dr. Matthew Walker: The Biology of Sleep & Your Unique Sleep Needs

I was close friends with the late (and great) Ben Barres, MD, Ph.D., and recorded 5+ hours of interviews with him not long before he passed away (he authorized release, which I have planned for the future). One thing he made very clear: “To keep your sanity, just remember—it’s all just like high school on repeat.” 

Do you agree?

A new Huberman Lab episode is out now on mastering growth mindset with David Yeager, Ph.D., a professor of psychology at the The University of Texas at Austin.

Dr. David Yeager: How to Master Growth Mindset to Improve Performance

In episode 2 of a 6-part Huberman Lab Guest Series on sleep, Matthew Walker, PhD, explains one of the common issues people face: waking up in the middle of the night. That itself is not so much a problem if it just happens once per night, but often, people have difficulty falling back asleep, which then sets in motion anxiety about sleep, sleep deprivation, and, in turn, the negative effects of sleep deprivation.

Something as simple as looking at the time can create a cascade of issues, leading to more sleep challenges.

The takeaway: If you have trouble waking up in the middle of the night and difficulty falling back asleep afterward, consider removing all clock faces, electronic or otherwise, from the bedroom.

Episode 3 of a 6-part Huberman Lab Guest Series on sleep with Matthew Walker, PhD, professor of neuroscience and psychology and founder of the Center for Human Sleep Science at the University of California, Berkeley is out now.

We explain how our sleep architecture changes as we age. We also cover how childhood development and aging affect sleep biology and needs. We also discuss whether polyphasic sleep (multiple short sleep periods) is beneficial.

Then, we discuss naps, including their positive benefits, individual variability, those who should not nap, and alternative rest states like non-sleep deep rest. Dr. Walker shares protocols to optimize nap duration, timing and effectiveness.

We also explore the effects of caffeine on sleep and other health aspects, as well as the optimal timing for caffeine intake.

This episode describes many actionable science-based tools for optimizing sleep, naps and caffeine use for better health and performance.

This one will make you stronger… but not by the path you imagine. Everyone, men, women, young, and old, can benefit from Coleman Ruiz's teaching. 

Note: This episode includes profanity and is not for all ages or the profanity-offended.

The Huberman Lab episode out now is with Bonnie Halpern-Felsher, PhD, of Stanford University School of Medicine, a world expert on adolescent, teen, and young adult risk-taking and habits.

We discuss the health concerns with vaping that apply to everyone, regardless of age. The frequency of vaping and e-cigarettes has skyrocketed in recent years, especially among young people. Many incorrectly believe it to be innocuous.

The episode also covers risk mitigation and the importance of health messaging on social media and more.

Been doing 10-minute NSDR sessions ever since first learning about them on your first few podcasts, Andrew Huberman. 

It's followed by a session each morning with Dr. David Spiegel's 'Reveri' app - again thanks to your podcast and your interview with Dr. Spiegel. 

You've done more for my (and millions) mental / spiritual health than a stadium filled with 'mental health' professionals. Bravo - good doctor.
