Epilepsy is a broad term used to describe various neurologic conditions that cause seizures. According to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC), the U.S. had approximately 3 million adults and 470,000 children with epilepsy in 2015. Children with epilepsy are more likely to report academic difficulties, experience cognitive impairment, and live in poverty. Today we bring you Part 1 of our conversation with epilepsy expert Dr. Nancy Nussbaum, a board-certified neuropsychologist at

Clinical neuropsychologists are currently using instruments that are derived predominantly from monolingual, monocultural, and homogenous populations. According to U.S. Census projections, the U.S. is expected to continue becoming a more racially and ethnically pluralistic melting pot. As the number of White Americans is expected to decrease, the Hispanic population is projected to nearly double over the next few decades. The need for cultural responsiveness will only increase as the population

Dr. Brickman discusses his research on the presence of biomarkers of cerebrovascular disease (e.g., white matter hyperintensities), which are present in aging and Alzheimer’s disease. Although cerebrovascular disease is traditionally associated with its own unique cognitive profile, Dr. Brickman discusses evidence suggesting that the cognitive deficits and

Despite global efforts to understand and ultimately assess, diagnose, and treat Alzheimer's disease (AD) more effectively, a consensus definition of AD still does not exist. In 2018, the National Institute of Aging – Alzheimer’s Association (NIA-AA) Research Framework recommended that we should shift the definition of AD from a syndrome (i.e., the cognitive/behavioral symptoms that individuals present with) to a purely biological construct, specifically the presence of βamyloid deposition,

Compensatory Cognitive Training (CCT) is a growing area of research and clinical practice for neuropsychologists in academic and rehabilitation settings. CCT leverages intact brain networks in order to teach skills that can improve someone’s ability to function independently in day-to-day life, despite the presence of other disrupted brain networks. CCT has wide-reaching applications and can be beneficial for many of the clinical populations neuropsychologists already work with, including

We provided an overview of the field of neuropsychology in Episode 2, but we wanted to run it by someone outside the field to see if anything was unclear or if other questions came up. This episode is a Q & A with someone without any background in neuropsychology. We discuss lots of topics, such as the difference between normal and "abnormal" forgetfulness, why some people are able to process information quicker than others, the difference between dementia and Alzheimer's disease, and much more

Clinical trials in Alzheimer’s disease frequently include the measurement of risk genes (i.e., the APOE e4 allele), and advancements in direct-to-consumer genetic testing (e.g., 23andMe) have made these biological data widely available to the public. Is it helpful or harmful for clinicians to disclose information on genetic risk for Alzheimer’s disease to patients and research participants? How can we explain concepts such as risk and incomplete penetrance to our patients? We pose these

In our bodies, microbial genes outnumber human genes by about 100 to 1. The human microbiome (the bacteria, fungi, and viruses that live in us) has been linked to gastrointestinal diseases, immune functioning, type 2 diabetes, obesity, and more recently cognitive and psychiatric functioning. Today we speak with Dr. Tanya Nguyen, a neuropsychologist whose research is helping to clarify this link.

Caregivers often endure both psychological and medical illnesses and there are significant barriers (e.g., caregiver responsibilities) preventing them from attending traditional psychotherapy. In this episode, we talk to Dr. Geoff Tremont, a board-certified neuropsychologist and the developer of a telephone-based intervention that has been shown to enhance the well-being of caregivers.
