In this episode, Shaimond and guest host Duchess Antoinette McDonald-Ellis welcome cognitive neuroscientist Dr. Jennifer K Steeves from York University. Dr. Steeves discusses visual and sensory processing, emphasizing her research on Charles Bonnet Syndrome (CBS). She recounts her discovery of CBS through collaborative research and shares insights into non-invasive brain stimulation techniques like Transcranial Magnetic Stimulation (TMS) that show promise in treating visual hallucinations. Dr. Steeves elaborates on the complexities of brain function, the importance of individualized medical treatments, and explores the role of other sensory systems in compensatory vision loss. The discussion deepens into emerging medical treatments, including possible natural and holistic therapies, raising awareness about CBS within medical communities and highlighting the ongoing research to improve the quality of life for those affected.
