Guest: Jalesh N. Panicker (London, UK) and Mario Habek (Zagreb, Croatia)

In this episode, Alessandra Fanciulli speaks with Jalesh N. Panicker and Mario Habek about the assessment and management of neurogenic urinary and sexual symptoms. They discuss the clinical recognition of urogenital dysfunction in neurological diseases, practical approaches to initial assessment and treatment, and the role of interdisciplinary care in improving neurological practice.

Moderator: Piergiorgio Lochner (Homburg, Germany)

Guest: Stephan Schreiber (Berlin, Germany)

In this episode, Piergiorgio Lochner speaks with Stephan Schreiber about carpal tunnel syndrome and its detection by ultrasound. They discuss key clinical and electrophysiological findings, ultrasound assessment of median nerve structure, and the recognition of anatomical or systemic red flags, highlighting the role of nerve ultrasound in diagnosis and neurological practice.

Moderator: Piergiorgio Lochner (Homburg, Germany)

Guest: Arijana Lovrečić-Huzjan (Zagreb, Croatia)

In this episode, Piergiorgio Lochner speaks with Arijana Lovrečić-Huzjan about giant cell arteritis and its neurological presentation. They discuss key clinical features, inflammatory markers, and the role of vascular ultrasound in diagnosis, with emphasis on early recognition, differential diagnosis, and timely treatment to prevent visual and cerebrovascular complications.

Moderator: Jurgita Valaikienė (Vilnius, Lithuania)

Guest: Cristina Duque (Porto, Portugal)

In this episode, Jurgita Valaikienė speaks with Cristina Duque about the multimodal assessment of carotid plaques at risk and their role in cerebrovascular disease. They discuss key imaging approaches, the Carotid Plaque-RADS classification, and the identification of high-risk plaque features to support stroke risk stratification and clinical decision-making in neurological practice.

Moderator: Jurgita Valaikienė (Vilnius, Lithuania)

In this episode, Jurgita Valaikienė speaks with Theodoros Mavridis about reversible cerebral vasoconstriction syndrome. They discuss its clinical presentation, differential diagnosis and imaging assessment, highlighting key diagnostic challenges, important triggers, and the role of multimodal evaluation for neurological practice.

Moderator: Elisa Canu (Milan, Italy)

In this episode, Elisa Canu speaks with Sophie Scott about the neural basis of speech and communication, focusing on the evolving role of the motor system within distributed auditory–motor networks. They discuss current evidence relevant to speech perception and production, conversational communication, and vocal behaviours, highlighting implications for the understanding and clinical assessment of communication disorders.

Moderator: Elka Stefanova (Belgrade, Serbia)

In this week’s episode, Elka Stefanova and Marua Panozzo Chiomento discuss how Parkinson’s disease affects language and communication. They explore common language impairments, their underlying cognitive and neural mechanisms, approaches to clinical assessment, and their impact on everyday communication and quality of life.

Moderator: Elisa Canu (Milan, Italy)

Guest: Cornelius Weiller (Freiburg, Germany)

In this episode, Elisa Canu speaks with Cornelius Weiller about the neural architecture underlying language, concept formation, and the brain’s interaction with the environment. They discuss the role of dorsal, ventral, and semantic pathways, convergence hubs, and their relevance for understanding language processing, cognition, and neurological disorders affecting communication and higher cortical functions.
