Research in the past has indicated that neurological disorders such as Alzheimer’s disease are non-infectious. But what if it was possible to catch a brain infection? Joining us to discuss this fascinating topic is Dr. Or Shemesh, an expert working to build and utilize new technologies to study and reverse brain disease…
Dr. Shemesh is an Assistant Professor at the University of Pittsburgh School of Medicine, Departments of Neurobiology and Bioengineering. Here, he works in a cutting-edge field called “Counter Disease Engineering” – otherwise known as a technological approach to understanding diseases of the nervous system.
In this conversation, we cover:
- The major causes of inflammation.
- The unique connection between nervous system diseases and infectious agents.
- How microbes impact our overall health.
- How brain pathogens are potentially connected to Alzheimer’s.
