Talking Points

Recent interactions between the hosts and their guests.

113. Wild Minds: The Purpose of Play in Animals and in Science (with Professor Nacho Sanguinetti)
Q: What do you think is the purpose of play in animals, especially during development?
Play serves as a broad developmental mechanism that helps animals learn how to interact with others, interpret objects and affordances, and prepare for adulthood. It supports social and cognitive development, can reflect cross-species interactions, and provides a non-stressful context for exploring and learning how the world works.
112. Tools for Looking into the Brain: Neuronal Excitability and Communication in Ageing and Neurodegenerative Disorders (with Dr Paula Pousinha)
Q: What models do you use to study aging and Alzheimer's disease?
Her work combines aged rodent models (18 months old) with hippocampal neuron cultures and human iPSC-derived neurons, plus imaging and protein expression analyses to triangulate aging and disease mechanisms.
112. Tools for Looking into the Brain: Neuronal Excitability and Communication in Ageing and Neurodegenerative Disorders (with Dr Paula Pousinha)
Q: How do amyloid and other APP processing fragments contribute to synaptic changes?
She explains that beyond amyloid-beta, intracellular domains and other APP fragments like AECD and AETA can modulate NMDA receptor function and calcium signaling, producing synaptic alterations that resemble Alzheimer's pathology.
111. Migraines - Causes & Treatments (with Dr Anna Andreou)
Q: Are there any interventions that involve predicting the onset of migraine attacks to prevent them?
Patients can recognize pre-monitory symptoms in about 60% of cases, which may occur up to three days before an attack; however, predicting attacks with high reliability remains challenging, and timely use of rescue medications is still critical.
110. Neuroverse 4 year Anniversary Q&A
Q: Are trees the best species?
They are the most altruistic, but no single species can be deemed the best.
