then that questions will be in Russian

then that questions will be in Russian and what I really want to talk about

chocolate even actually Kinder Surprise you may ask why first of all because

you may ask why first of all because

you may ask why first of all because it’s very simple I mean you know there’s

it’s very simple I mean you know there’s

it’s very simple I mean you know there’s a chocolate egg right it’s it’s pretty

a chocolate egg right it’s it’s pretty

a chocolate egg right it’s it’s pretty simple you know it you also know there

simple you know it you also know there

simple you know it you also know there is a toy inside and it’s also don’t seem

is a toy inside and it’s also don’t seem

is a toy inside and it’s also don’t seem really complicated and on the other hand

really complicated and on the other hand

really complicated and on the other hand I Kinder Surprise it’s actually sweetie

I Kinder Surprise it’s actually sweetie

I Kinder Surprise it’s actually sweetie and when we want to tell someone that we

and when we want to tell someone that we

and when we want to tell someone that we love them

love them

love them we call them sweetheart so today my idea

we call them sweetheart so today my idea

we call them sweetheart so today my idea is to tell you a little bit about how

is to tell you a little bit about how

is to tell you a little bit about how scientists try to investigate love and

scientists try to investigate love and

scientists try to investigate love and what different areas of science have a

what different areas of science have a

what different areas of science have a thought about clock first of all they

thought about clock first of all they

thought about clock first of all they can’t psychologists and what they said

can’t psychologists and what they said

can’t psychologists and what they said they said well why can’t we just measure

they said well why can’t we just measure

they said well why can’t we just measure love and get to know how strongly do a

love and get to know how strongly do a

love and get to know how strongly do a lab each other so the Jackson data

lab each other so the Jackson data

lab each other so the Jackson data dispassionate work scale it’s only about

dispassionate work scale it’s only about

dispassionate work scale it’s only about 20 questions you just have to say how

20 questions you just have to say how

20 questions you just have to say how strongly you agree or disagree with the

strongly you agree or disagree with the

strongly you agree or disagree with the statement like I strongly agree that I

statement like I strongly agree that I

statement like I strongly agree that I think about my beloved one every day or

think about my beloved one every day or

think about my beloved one every day or I strongly disagree with that and in the

I strongly disagree with that and in the

I strongly disagree with that and in the end when you when you take this test you

end when you when you take this test you

end when you when you take this test you just have the result what’s really

just have the result what’s really

just have the result what’s really interesting that Helen Fisher group has

interesting that Helen Fisher group has

interesting that Helen Fisher group has found that is highly correlated with the

found that is highly correlated with the

found that is highly correlated with the activation of accommodate new clothes

activation of accommodate new clothes

activation of accommodate new clothes it’s the name of the in the brain

it’s the name of the in the brain

it’s the name of the in the brain structure that is somehow must be an

structure that is somehow must be an

structure that is somehow must be an account the root of love the part of the

account the root of love the part of the

account the root of love the part of the brain responsible for love who actually

brain responsible for love who actually

brain responsible for love who actually is now but many near that is highly

is now but many near that is highly

is now but many near that is highly correlated the highest cause you have in

correlated the highest cause you have in

correlated the highest cause you have in the passionate love scale the high is

the passionate love scale the high is

the passionate love scale the high is activation in the cow at nucleus and for

activation in the cow at nucleus and for

activation in the cow at nucleus and for those of you who have come via partner

those of you who have come via partner

those of you who have come via partner who is just right now thinking to take

who is just right now thinking to take

who is just right now thinking to take this test or to make their partner take

this test or to make their partner take

this test or to make their partner take this test just keep in mind that the

this test just keep in mind that the

this test just keep in mind that the highest scores are quite typical for the

highest scores are quite typical for the

highest scores are quite typical for the first year relationship when you’re

first year relationship when you’re

first year relationship when you’re installing deep romantic love because

installing deep romantic love because

installing deep romantic love because later it goes a little bit down but it’s

later it goes a little bit down but it’s

later it goes a little bit down but it’s absolutely okay I mean the means cause

absolutely okay I mean the means cause

absolutely okay I mean the means cause can be from even four or five to nine it

can be from even four or five to nine it

can be from even four or five to nine it still means you love each other okay

still means you love each other okay

still means you love each other okay just keep that in mind if you won’t take

just keep that in mind if you won’t take

just keep that in mind if you won’t take it

it

it another thing was that when this test

another thing was that when this test

another thing was that when this test this insane didn’t seem to be really

this insane didn’t seem to be really

this insane didn’t seem to be really cool they came another group of

cool they came another group of

cool they came another group of psychologists and what they said was

psychologists and what they said was

psychologists and what they said was well a LOF is not about measuring love

well a LOF is not about measuring love

well a LOF is not about measuring love love is about the level of dopamine in

love is about the level of dopamine in

love is about the level of dopamine in the brain so the more you love the high

the brain so the more you love the high

the brain so the more you love the high is a level of document in your brain

is a level of document in your brain

is a level of document in your brain it’s easy peasy

it’s easy peasy

it’s easy peasy isn’t it so the point is if you want to

isn’t it so the point is if you want to

isn’t it so the point is if you want to impress ago but to make a girl to fell

impress ago but to make a girl to fell

impress ago but to make a girl to fell in love with you you just have to go on

in love with you you just have to go on

in love with you you just have to go on adventure to raise your level of

adventure to raise your level of

adventure to raise your level of dopamine

dopamine

dopamine for example horror movies would walk I

for example horror movies would walk I

for example horror movies would walk I mean now you know why some boys republic

mean now you know why some boys republic

mean now you know why some boys republic that they goes to horror movies in the

that they goes to horror movies in the

that they goes to horror movies in the cinema but also keep in mind that

cinema but also keep in mind that

cinema but also keep in mind that actually it may not work as well as you

actually it may not work as well as you

actually it may not work as well as you could think because there was a story

could think because there was a story

could think because there was a story when a booth page the guy decided to use

when a booth page the guy decided to use

when a booth page the guy decided to use his document role and to raise the level

his document role and to raise the level

his document role and to raise the level of document the brain of the golf who

of document the brain of the golf who

of document the brain of the golf who wanted to fell in love with him and he

wanted to fell in love with him and he

wanted to fell in love with him and he went to hell remove them we have the

went to hell remove them we have the

went to hell remove them we have the result was when they came after the

result was when they came after the

result was when they came after the movie she said oh my god the leading

movie she said oh my god the leading

movie she said oh my god the leading actor in that her mother was so handsome

actor in that her mother was so handsome

actor in that her mother was so handsome would fall another camp so you see the

would fall another camp so you see the

would fall another camp so you see the guy failed and that’s because we

guy failed and that’s because we

guy failed and that’s because we actually don’t know how it works I mean

actually don’t know how it works I mean

actually don’t know how it works I mean you can call log the right level of

you can call log the right level of

you can call log the right level of dopamine but what it actually gives us

dopamine but what it actually gives us

dopamine but what it actually gives us not so much so then they can you’re a

not so much so then they can you’re a

not so much so then they can you’re a biologist and they actually said hey can

biologist and they actually said hey can

biologist and they actually said hey can you adjust the Ted Club and say what

you adjust the Ted Club and say what

you adjust the Ted Club and say what love is just by detecting it they didn’t

love is just by detecting it they didn’t

love is just by detecting it they didn’t try to define what love is they just put

try to define what love is they just put

try to define what love is they just put a group of guys who were truly deeply

a group of guys who were truly deeply

a group of guys who were truly deeply light in love I’m sizing the article now

light in love I’m sizing the article now

light in love I’m sizing the article now they were truly and deeply in love and

they were truly and deeply in love and

they were truly and deeply in love and put these guys into an fMRI scanner and

put these guys into an fMRI scanner and

put these guys into an fMRI scanner and here the results on the upper part of

here the results on the upper part of

here the results on the upper part of the slide you can see that some brain

the slide you can see that some brain

the slide you can see that some brain regions were highly activated and in

regions were highly activated and in

regions were highly activated and in other brain regions while the opposite

other brain regions while the opposite

other brain regions while the opposite they activated so please love guys

they activated so please love guys

they activated so please love guys that’s it if you wanted to know what

that’s it if you wanted to know what

that’s it if you wanted to know what love is that’s it if I wanted to impress

love is that’s it if I wanted to impress

love is that’s it if I wanted to impress you I could tell you for example that in

you I could tell you for example that in

you I could tell you for example that in Seoul hippocampus and anterior cingulate

Seoul hippocampus and anterior cingulate

Seoul hippocampus and anterior cingulate gyrus are activated it’s just the name

gyrus are activated it’s just the name

gyrus are activated it’s just the name of structures and again we still don’t

of structures and again we still don’t

of structures and again we still don’t know what love is that was a part of

know what love is that was a part of

know what love is that was a part of brain activation and deactivation

brain activation and deactivation

brain activation and deactivation actually doubt it and now the question

okay so just sum it up I want to have a

okay so just sum it up I want to have a look at what science can really tell us

look at what science can really tell us

look at what science can really tell us about love

about love

about love it’s not that much really I mean if you

it’s not that much really I mean if you

it’s not that much really I mean if you ask a scientist a scientist what should

ask a scientist a scientist what should

ask a scientist a scientist what should you do about love scientists would give

you do about love scientists would give

you do about love scientists would give you rather banal advice for example you

you rather banal advice for example you

you rather banal advice for example you should go to an adventure with a

should go to an adventure with a

should go to an adventure with a girlfriend a boyfriend it would be fun

girlfriend a boyfriend it would be fun

girlfriend a boyfriend it would be fun it would raise your level of document

it would raise your level of document

it would raise your level of document you know on the other hand some

you know on the other hand some

you know on the other hand some scientists would just tell you well just

scientists would just tell you well just

scientists would just tell you well just have a look at the photos of the blood

have a look at the photos of the blood

have a look at the photos of the blood ones causes it activate all those

ones causes it activate all those

ones causes it activate all those languages that we call love you know so

languages that we call love you know so

languages that we call love you know so that it is that when it comes to love

that it is that when it comes to love

that it is that when it comes to love the science is Jones now because science

the science is Jones now because science

the science is Jones now because science knows nothing about love we can have a

make love out of it we take some report

make love out of it we take some report at some time in the time that depends on

at some time in the time that depends on

at some time in the time that depends on you and just summing up if science is

you and just summing up if science is

you and just summing up if science is not so cool about love maybe we should

not so cool about love maybe we should

not so cool about love maybe we should raise about it and focus on science

raise about it and focus on science

raise about it and focus on science itself thank you for your attention
