Brains Learning About Brains
Consciousness remains a final frontier of neuroscience and psychiatry…and even immunology M2s Trent Gilbert, Olivia Jenks, PA1 Faith Anton, and M4 Sarah Costello discuss what it might mean that doctors recently discovered a group of patients, previously diagnosed with schizophrenia, who might actually have other treatable immunological disorders that present as psych disorders. We also discuss a new world record kidney stone, medical refugees fleeing legislation and healthcare discrimination right here in the US, and an eating disorders chatbot that dispenses terrible advice to people with eating disorders. And, Dave subjects his co-hosts to a pop news pop quiz. No matter where you fall on any spectrum, we want your thoughts on our show. Do you agree or disagree with something we said today?
