68: How to understand your brain with MEG? With Caitlin from MYndspan
On this episode, Caitlin Baltzer, CEO and Co-founder of MYndspan helps us imagine a world where access to information on how our brain works is at our fingertips. MYndspan is a platform which uses a unique brain scanning technology called magnetoencephalography or more easily known as the MEG scanner. This non-invasive, millimetre-accurate scanning can offer a new perspective on brain function. The data can provide early detection for neurodegenerative illnesses and also provide new intelligence for personalised day-to-day brain health interventions. We start the journey with Caitlin with her banking career in Toronto.

How she began learning about magnetoencephalography or MEG
How joining the manufacturer of the brain scanner after their acquisition led to MYndspan
How the MEG scanner is more effective than an MRI at diagnosing ‘invisible injuries’ such as neural trauma
How MYndspan is being expanded for general use in the UK and Canada
How MYndspan appointments can give you a comprehensive view of your brain functioning
How MYndspan can visualise information for effective lifestyle changes
How 40% of dementias could be preventable using MEG
