This episode I interview Dr. Uzma Samadani. Dr. Samadani is a brain researcher and neurosurgeon in Minneapolis, Minnesota. In the interest of full disclosure, Dr. Samadani was my neurosurgeon when I was diagnosed with an anoxic brain injury nearly a year after my heart attack.

Dr. Samadani and I discuss:

CTE is much more complex than we think

Why playing sports is better for your kids than them not playing sports

That there is no real test or definition of concussion

Brain research is where heart research was around 1950

Why it’s difficult to do brain research and what needs to change
