    Different Types of Dopamine Neurons with Professor Rajesh and Daniel

    2024/03/18 | 53 mins.
    Listen to learn about how dopamine neurons aren’t all the
    same, some neurons use dopamine to reduce negative behaviours, to increase or
    nothing at all. I’ll be talking to to Professor  Danielle who loves everything to do with navigation
    and Rajeshwar who is more of a dopamine specialist.

    Looking for Dementia in the Blood with Dr Keenan Walker

    2023/10/20 | 1h 6 mins.
    This was a brilliant episode as I have long been looking
    into the research into a diagnostic test for Alzheimer’s Disease and dementia
    in general. I for a long time for a paper on diagnostic markers for Alzheimer’s
    Disease and demetnai in general because it is one of the roadblocks to help us
    understand and eventually cure these diseases. We still cannot diagnose
    Alzheimer’s Disease and most dementia’s until 15-20 years into the disease. And
    this paper is a big step forward looking at over 5000 proteins in the blood. So
    listen in to find out more.
