In this insightful episode, join Martin and JP as they delve into the intricate world of brain injury with leading clinical neuropsychologist Professor Huw Williams. Discover the profound impacts of brain trauma on cognition, emotions, and behaviour, and gain a deeper understanding of the complexities involved in neuro-rehabilitation.
The discussion also tackles the critical challenges of detecting and treating often-overlooked repetitive sub-concussive head injuries, particularly in high-risk professions such as the military and sports. Learn about the crucial role of screening systems and the exciting potential of AI and big data to revolutionize brain injury treatment and recovery in the future.
This episode is essential for anyone interested in neurology, brain health, sports medicine, military health, rehabilitation, cognitive science, and the future of healthcare technology.
