And I thought about a lot and I realized that we don't measure mental health very well, right?

Huberman Lab

Surveys are still the gold standards for most things.

And so how do you know if you're getting better?

Huberman Lab
Transform Your Metabolic Health & Longevity by Knowing Your Unique Biology | Dr. Michael Snyder

You do more surveys.

Huberman Lab
Transform Your Metabolic Health & Longevity by Knowing Your Unique Biology | Dr. Michael Snyder

That whole concept is very unsatisfying to me.

So we thought with the wearables, right, there's got to be a lot of physiology around this thing, this biochemistry.

We do a lot of micro-sampling, mentioned earlier, where you can out-profile deeply.

So we thought we could bring this kind of stuff maybe.

And we're still – it's a growing area in the lab.

I'm very interested in this because I feel like there's a lot going on in the mental health space.

Huberman Lab
Transform Your Metabolic Health & Longevity by Knowing Your Unique Biology | Dr. Michael Snyder

It's just –

unexplored.

And the biggest problem is we just don't have good biomarkers for the meetings I'd been at for the stuff that keeps popping up.

Huberman Lab
Transform Your Metabolic Health & Longevity by Knowing Your Unique Biology | Dr. Michael Snyder

Number one, we don't have good biomarkers.

Huberman Lab
Transform Your Metabolic Health & Longevity by Knowing Your Unique Biology | Dr. Michael Snyder

So we think the digital meaning from the wearables, the, um, uh, um,

Huberman Lab

microsampling could ultimately prove to give us good biomarkers.

Huberman Lab
Transform Your Metabolic Health & Longevity by Knowing Your Unique Biology | Dr. Michael Snyder

We're already seeing some evidence of that now.

Huberman Lab

So we ran several studies.

We did one with Byron Katie, who runs one of these immersive programs.

And I don't know any about this stuff.
