The Gene Messenger: Advancing Neurological Gene Therapy

4/12/2024
Guest: Michael Kaplitt, MD, PhD For the first time, Dr. Michael Kaplitt was able to perform a trial for a neurological gene therapy that was administered in a human patient to address damaged brain cells caused by Parkinson’s disease. This procedure used an adeno-associated virus to deliver a gene into the brain of a patient with Parkinson’s. The results were groundbreaking and paved new avenues for research in neurological gene therapy, such as preventative intervention. Join health and science journalist Catherine Price as she speaks with Dr. Michael Kaplitt, Executive Vice Chair of the Department of Neurological Surgery at NewYork-Presbyterian/Weill Cornell Medicine, as he discusses the story of his breakthrough and how he’s continuing to evolve the field of neurosurgery. © 2024 NewYork-Presbyterian

The Network Effect: Analyzing Brain Structures to Treat Depression

4/5/2024
Guest: Conor Liston, MD, PhD For patients diagnosed with depression for the first time the recommended course of treatment is the same; however, there’s a large patient population for whom these treatments won’t work. So it became increasingly important for Dr. Liston to map the brains of people suffering from major depression to see how it was impacting brain structures and symptoms. The research showed that certain networks expanded in the brains of patients who had depression and pushed into other networks. Learn more about identifying how these symptoms impact the patient’s brains, analyzing the best course for treatments, and how this research could be the key to effectively using transcranial magnetic stimulation to help patients with treatment-resistant depression. Join health and science journalist Catherine Price as she speaks with Dr. Conor Michael Liston, Psychiatrist at NewYork-Presbyterian/Weill Cornell Medicine, to discuss these approaches to help treatment-resistant depression. © 2024 NewYork-Presbyterian

Inflammatory Pathways in Severe Asthma: Focus on Mucus Plugs

3/12/2024
Host: Charles Turck, PharmD, BCPS, BCCCP Guest: Arnaud Bourdin, MD, PhD It’s only been a recent discovery that mucus plugging may be present and persistent in chronic severe asthma.1 In fact, studies have shown that mucus plugs may drive some lung function deficits in severe asthma.1 Given this recent finding, Dr Charles Turck speaks with Professor Arnaud Bourdin about the clinical significance and pathogenesis of mucus plugging in severe asthma.

Engaging Neuroplasticity in Depression with Cognitive-Emotional Training

1/23/2024
Host: Charles Turck, PharmD, BCPS, BCCCP Guest: Brian Iacoviello, MD Since the thinking part of depression may involve getting stuck on the sad or the negative thoughts, there is a need to focus on not just cognitive control for information but for emotional information processing.1 And that fits with the picture that we get from brain imaging research that shows hyperactivity in the emotion-processing region of the brain and a quieting-down of the cognitive control region of the brain when people are depressed.1 To take a deep dive, join Dr. Brian Iacoviello, Assistant Professor of Psychiatry at the Icahn School of Medicine at Mount Sinai in New York City.
