The gut, the brain and neurodegeneration
In 2019, I gave this lay talk at a fundraising event organised by Lyrical Science in London. It explored how the gut and brain may communicate, the role of gut microorganisms in maintaining balance, and how diet and stress may impact this. I also shared insights into ongoing research on the gut-brain connection and neurodegenerative diseases, including my contributions to experiments and data collection.
A conversation on nutrition and dietetics
In 2023, I had the pleasure of chatting with Josh Edelman about nutrition and dietetics. We discussed diverse topics, including:
- How tailored nutrition and behavioural psychology can support lasting health changes.
- The importance of collaboration in healthcare.
- Empowering clients through personalised, practical steps.
- Staying informed with the latest research in the field.
Watch the full conversation to gain insights into these themes and explore practical strategies for improving health and well-being.
60 seconds: Neuroscience meets nutrition
In 2023, I produced this series of short videos. It was an experiment to discuss topics linking neuroscience, nutrition and health in a lay format.
