This episode is a conversation about the neuropsychology of bilingualism, with a focus on children and the developing brain. We review concepts including language acquisition during fetal and early life development, sequential versus simultaneous bilingualism, L1 versus L2, BICS and CALP, cognitive effects of bilingualism (particularly executive functions), neuroanatomy and neuroimaging, and impact of SES on language development. We also cover clinically oriented topics related to conducting neuropsychological evaluations in bilingual children, such as assessing language proficiency prior to cognitive testing, effectively utilizing interpreters, normative data selection, report writing, feedback, and teleneuropsychology.

Today we give you our conversation with Dr. Andrew Kiselica about neuropsychological test interpretation. Andrew is a board-certified clinical neuropsychologist and Associate Professor in the Institute of Gerontology at the University of Georgia. He recently first authored a review paper providing clinically relevant guidance regarding neuropsych test interpretation. In the paper they cover a variety of specific topics such as regression based norms, multivariate base rates, and within-person variability, among others. In our conversation with Andrew, we covered most of these individual topics and we are going to break this one up and release it in chunks, with each episode reflecting a different topic. Today’s topic is an overall introduction to neuropsychological test interpretation and then a specific conversation about regression based norms.

Last month we announced our new online board study resource, where we link specific NavNeuro episodes to chapters in the Clinical Neuropsychology Study Guide and Board Review textbook. You can find the webpage by going to navneuro.com/boardstudy. In keeping with the theme, today we will be sharing advice for how to study for the exam.  Also, check out the show notes for additional resources.

In this episode we highlight topics such as the meaning and evolution of the term “eloquent cortex,” localized versus distributed models of brain functioning, aggressiveness versus conservatism of neurosurgeons during resections, the “onco-functional balance,” electrocorticography and stereo EEG procedures, the Wada procedure, the clinical and functional utility of brain mapping, the availability of brain mapping to people of lower SES, neuropsychologists’ role in educating patients and families, cognitive testing during the mapping procedure, and NeuroMapper.

This episode is a conversation with Drs. Clifford Jack and Kevin Duff about recent updates to the diagnosis and staging of Alzheimer’s disease (AD). We discuss biological versus clinical/pathological approaches to diagnosing AD, analogies between AD and other medical conditions, the predictive validity of amyloid PET in asymptomatic older adults, the specific purpose of the recent Alzheimer's Association diagnosis and staging paper, the utility of currently available AD biomarkers, the status of blood-based biomarkers for AD, the amyloid hypothesis, concerns from neuropsychologists about the recent Alzheimer's Association biological definition of AD, and current state of the science for antiamyloid treatments in AD, among other topics.
