From meningitis to encephalitis, these brain-busting bugs have more tricks up their sleeves than a magician on a caffeine binge.

We’ll cover symptoms, treatment options, and the latest in brain infection research. It’s a topic that might make you think twice before Googling “brain fog”!

Tune in to understand the often-overlooked connection between infectious diseases and your brain, with a little humor to keep it light. It’s science with a side of snark!
