This is an amazing podcast, everyone should listen to it! I
Am working my way back to the beginning, and slipping back and forth to the episodes I think I want to hear before others, and Drs. A. and D. are amazing teachers, explaining in easy to understand language scientific concepts and research that would otherwise be incredibly complicated! And my favorite parts is that they offer real life tips to overcome potential, or actual, brain health issues! Thank you for all you do!!

Instead of focusing on c... more

And btw, as a person facing a fatal disease, watching the molecules of my life slipping away, Ku... more
