November 15, 2016 Latitude and disease severity in Multiple Sclerosis
Elizabeth Highton and Prof. Bruce Taylor discuss higher latitudes and its association with earlier age of onset of Multiple Sclerosis (MS).
The international study, published by the JNNP, links latitude to the age at which symptoms of MS first start. Each 10ᵒ increase in latitude is associated with a 10 month earlier onset of symptoms among those of European descent.

November 07, 2016 Do your kids play rugby? Risks for rugby union players from repeated concussions
Associate Editor of JNNP Alan Carson interviews Tom McMillan, Professor at the Institute for Health & Wellbeing, University of Glasgow, UK, about the paper "Long Term Health Outcomes after Exposure to Repeated Concussion in Elite Level Rugby Union Players".
Despite a high number of concussions in retired male Scottish international rugby players, the researchers didn’t find differences in mental health, social or work functioning late after injury.
However, subtle group differences were detected on two cognitive tests. Listen to this podcast for full details.

October 13, 2016 Is it time to focus on the common pathways linking neurodegenerative diseases?
Dr. Rebekah Ahmed talks about her recent JNNP review: Neuronal network disintegration and the common pathways linking neurodegenerative diseases.
Dr. Ahmed and colleagues critically evaluate a new approach to neurodegenerative disease, a focus on phenotypic presentation opposed to syndromic diagnosis. Via collaborative efforts, should we be looking at the commonalities between the neurodegenerative diseases?

August 19, 2016 Smoking: a negative prognostic for survival in motor neurone disease patients
Elizabeth Highton is joined by Prof. Adriano Chio to talk about his study:
Influence of cigarette smoking on ALS outcome: a population-based study.
His large population-based cohort study of patients with amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS), commonly known as motor neurone disease, demonstrated that smoking is linked to their shorter survival and smokers also tended to be younger when the symptoms first appeared.
