78| Neuropsychology and Sub-Saharan Africa – A Conversation With Drs. Jean Ikanga and Tony Stringer Sep 01, 2021

Culturally informed neuropsychological evaluations require that clinicians develop knowledge of the macrosocietal structures of unfamiliar countries and the cultural backgrounds of their patients. Sub-Saharan Africa is a large region, with over one billion people, some of whom develop neurological conditions and could benefit from neuropsychological services. In this episode, we discuss shared aspects of sub-Saharan culture, particularly in contrast to Western norms, and we introduce and describe the African Neuropsychological Battery.

71| Neuropsych Bite: Pediatric Transverse Myelitis – A Conversation With Dr. Lana Harder May 15, 2021

Transverse myelitis is a disorder of spinal cord inflammation and demyelination. Although more common in adults, it does occur in children. In the past, people believed that transverse myelitis was not associated with cognitive symptoms, given that it exclusively impacts the spinal cord (not the brain). However, recent evidence suggests that performance on cognitive testing can be negatively impacted in some children with transverse myelitis. To learn more about this condition in children, John and Ryan speak with Lana Harder, Ph.D., ABPP-CN, who is a founding member and current Co-Director of the Children’s Medical Center Pediatric Demyelinating Disease Clinic.

68| Obstructive Sleep Apnea and Neuropsychology – A Conversation With Dr. Mark Aloia Apr 01, 2021

Obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) is a disorder of breathing during sleep. It can lead to both sleep fragmentation and hypoxia, it has a negative impact on cardiovascular functioning, and it is associated with various neurobiological, cognitive, and emotional sequelae. OSA is underdiagnosed in the general population, and even following successful diagnosis the most popular treatment (positive airway pressure [PAP] devices) is not always well tolerated, leading to low treatment adherence. Given that OSA impacts the brain and behavior, that it is underdiagnosed, and that successful intervention requires a significant behavior change (e.g., PAP adherence), neuropsychologists have a significant role to play in this public health issue. In the current episode, John and Ryan speak with Dr. Mark Aloia about various aspects of OSA, including an in-depth discussion of cognitive/emotional effects of the condition, as well as motivational interviewing techniques to improve PAP adherence.

Note: Dr. Aloia is involved in industry research with Philips, Inc. INS and NavNeuro do not have a financial relationship with Philips and do not endorse their products/services.

66| SuperAging – A Conversation With Dr. Emily Rogalski Mar 01, 2021

The Alzheimer’s Association reports that 50% of older adults above age 80 have Alzheimer’s disease. Within the 50% of older adults who do not meet criteria for Alzheimer’s disease, most experience typical age-related changes in memory. However, there is a small group of older adults who Dr. Emily Rogalski, a clinical and cognitive neuroscientist at Northwestern University, calls “SuperAgers.” Dr. Rogalski studies “SuperAging,” which describes older adults who are seemingly resistant to the deleterious changes in memory associated with typical or atypical aging. Today, John and Ryan talk with Dr. Rogalski about the creation and development of the concept of SuperAging, as well as what she thinks confers resilience to age-related cognitive change.

65| Neuropsych Bite: Pediatric Teleneuropsychology – A Conversation With Dr. Lana Harder Feb 15, 2021

As the COVID-19 pandemic endures, many neuropsychologists continue to conduct neuropsychological assessments via telehealth platforms. Increased knowledge about telehealth practices garnered from clinical experience and an influx of publications about teleneuropsychology has allowed for further improved telehealth assessment practices. We previously spoke with Dr. Munro Cullum about teleneuropsychology in adult populations and the new challenges neuropsychologists faced at the outset of the pandemic. In order to address the unique challenges faced by pediatric neuropsychologists conducting neuropsychology assessments remotely, we spoke with Lana Harder, Ph.D., ABPP-CN, about her experience and recommendations for pediatric neuropsychologists.

63| COVID-19: The Role of Neuropsychology – A Conversation With Dr. Chaya Fridman Jan 15, 2021

Emerging research suggests that a sizeable portion of individuals hospitalized due to COVID-19 develop cognitive and psychological sequelae. In our conversation with Dr. Chaya Fridman, a board-certified neuropsychologist at Cornell, we discuss the ways that SARS-CoV-2 (the virus that causes COVID-19) may lead to neurocognitive impairment, including both direct effects of the virus and secondary factors (e.g., respiratory distress and treatments used in the Intensive Care Unit). We review how the virus gains access to the central nervous system and the potential underlying mechanisms by which it causes an increased risk of stroke and other neurological issues. We also examine the long-term effects of prior coronaviruses (SARS-CoV and MERS-CoV) to attempt to forecast the long-term effects of COVID-19, with a focus on how neuropsychological practice (both inpatient and outpatient) might be affected.

62| Multiple Sclerosis: Cognitive and Emotional Sequelae – A Conversation With Dr. Peter Arnett Jan 01, 2021

About 50% of individuals with multiple sclerosis (MS) exhibit cognitive deficits in additional to physical symptoms. Depression and fatigue are also common in MS and can be debilitating. Therefore, it is not uncommon for an individual with MS to be referred for neuropsychological evaluation, making it important for neuropsychologists to familiarize themselves with the neurobiological underpinnings and signs and symptoms of MS. Today, John and Ryan talk with Dr. Peter Arnett about the cognitive and emotional symptoms of MS, and how neuropsychology can contribute to the care of patients with MS.

60| Fundamentals of Human Neuropsychology – A Conversation With Dr. Bryan Kolb Dec 01, 2020

The book Fundamentals of Human Neuropsychology was born of a need that Dr. Bryan Kolb recognized while completing his postdoctoral fellowship at the Montreal Neurological Institute with Dr. Brenda Milner. Dr. Kolb had asked his colleagues for a textbook on the human brain and, finding none, decided to create a course about “neuropsychology.” Now, Drs. Kolb and Whishaw’s textbook is about to be released in its 8th edition. John and Ryan talk with Dr. Kolb about his book, the contribution of animal research to human neuropsychology, the importance of the history of our field, advice on working with a co-author, and much more.

52| The Hierarchical Taxonomy of Psychopathology (HiTOP) – A Conversation With Dr. Robert Latzman Aug 15, 2020

Our current nosology of psychopathology relies on a categorical model that has notable limitations. For example, this medical model of classifying mental disorders does not account for the significant heterogeneity of symptom presentations across psychopathology. Today, we speak with Robert Latzman, Ph.D., to discuss the Hierarchical Taxonomy of Psychopathology (HiTOP), an alternative nosology that uses factor analysis to address the issues with our current diagnostic classification standard.

41| Teleneuropsychology – A Conversation With Dr. Munro Cullum Mar 25, 2020

The COVID-19 pandemic is impacting every corner of our world, and neuropsychology is certainly not immune from its effects. In particular, many neuropsychological clinics have temporarily shut down operations in response to the widespread call for social distancing. With this as the backdrop, we speak with Munro Cullum, Ph.D., ABPP-CN, about teleneuropsychology and telemedicine in general. We distinguish between pre-COVID-19 teleneuropsychological evaluations, conducted in clinics and other controlled environments, and the current push for home-to-home teleneuropsychology. We then dive into the details of teleneuropsychology, including topics such as research evidence for feasibility, reliability, and validity of this methodology, patient acceptability, environmental challenges, patient privacy and informed consent, and trainee clinical hours, among others. Throughout the interview, Dr. Cullum summarizes the current literature and provides advice, tips, and guidance for interested researchers and clinicians.

33| Neuropsychology 3.0 – A Conversation With Dr. Bob Bilder Dec 01, 2019

Research has repeatedly demonstrated the benefits of neuropsychological evaluations to patients and their families. However, there is great potential for advancement and improvement in the field. For example, there is growing interest in improving the validity of neuropsychological tests in the assessment and prediction of complex medical conditions using biological, statistical, and informatic techniques. We discuss these issues with Robert “Bob” Bilder, Ph.D., ABPP-CN, a leader in the conceptual and technical evolution of the field. We also discuss the problem of inertia, ecological and physiological validity, item response theory, computerized neuropsychological testing, and the National Neuropsychology Network (NNN).

21| Cultural Neuropsychology: Embracing the Mosaic – A Conversation With Dr. Monica Rivera Mindt Jun 01, 2019

Clinical neuropsychologists are currently using instruments that are derived predominantly from monolingual, monocultural, and homogenous populations. According to U.S. Census projections, the U.S. is expected to continue becoming a more racially and ethnically pluralistic melting pot. As the number of White Americans is expected to decrease, the Hispanic population is projected to nearly double over the next few decades. The need for cultural responsiveness will only increase as the population becomes more diverse. In this episode, we talk with Dr. Monica Rivera Mindt, board-certified neuropsychologist and President of the Hispanic Neuropsychological Society (HNS), about various cross-cultural considerations in the context of neuropsychological assessment, including bilingualism, “culturally neutral” tests, and the role of acculturation in cognitive performance.

20| The Interplay Between Cerebrovascular Disease and Alzheimer’s Disease – A Conversation With Dr. Adam Brickman May 15, 2019

Adam Brickman, Ph.D., returns to discuss the involvement of white matter disease in Alzheimer’s disease progression and clinical presentation. Dr. Brickman discusses his research on the presence of biomarkers of cerebrovascular disease (e.g., white matter hyperintensities), which are present in aging and Alzheimer’s disease. Although cerebrovascular disease is traditionally associated with its own unique cognitive profile, Dr. Brickman discusses evidence suggesting that the cognitive deficits and underlying etiologies often commingle and complicate our case conceptualization. Additionally, he proposes the integral role that cerebrovascular disease may play in predicting (and possibly initiating) disease progression and cognitive decline in Alzheimer’s disease.

19| Redefining Alzheimer's Disease: Does Cognition Matter? – A Conversation With Dr. Adam Brickman May 01, 2019

Despite global efforts to understand and ultimately assess, diagnose, and treat Alzheimer's disease (AD) more effectively, a consensus definition of AD still does not exist. In 2018, the National Institute of Aging – Alzheimer’s Association (NIA-AA) Research Framework recommended that we should shift the definition of AD from a syndrome (i.e., the cognitive/behavioral symptoms that individuals present with) to a purely biological construct, specifically the presence of βamyloid deposition, pathologic tau, and neurodegeneration (the "A/T/N" model). In this episode, we talk to Dr. Adam Brickman about the NIA-AA Research Framework biological definition of AD, the role of vascular contributions, assumptions about the amyloid hypothesis, and implications of not including the clinical syndrome in the diagnosis of AD.

15| Interventional Neuropsychology: Compensatory Cognitive Training – A Conversation With Dr. Beth Twamley Mar 01, 2019

Compensatory Cognitive Training (CCT) is a growing area of research and clinical practice for neuropsychologists in academic and rehabilitation settings. CCT leverages intact brain networks in order to teach skills that can improve someone’s ability to function independently in day-to-day life, despite the presence of other disrupted brain networks. CCT has wide-reaching applications and can be beneficial for many of the clinical populations neuropsychologists already work with, including individuals with traumatic brain injury, severe mental illness, mild cognitive impairment, and dementia. In this episode, we will talk to Elizabeth Twamley, Ph.D., about CCT: how it is applied, similarities to cognitive rehabilitation, who benefits most, where the field is going, and much more.

14| Neuropsychology for Non-Neuropsychologists (Part 2) Feb 15, 2019

We provided an overview of the field of neuropsychology in Episode 2, but we wanted to run it by someone outside the field to see if anything was unclear or if other questions came up. This episode is a Q & A with someone without any background in neuropsychology. We discuss lots of topics, such as the difference between normal and "abnormal" forgetfulness, why some people are able to process information quicker than others, the difference between dementia and Alzheimer's disease, and much more. Students, trainees, and the general public will likely benefit most from the content.

13| Disclosing Alzheimer’s Disease Genetic Risk – A Conversation With Dr. Meghan Collier Feb 01, 2019

Clinical trials in Alzheimer’s disease frequently include the measurement of risk genes (i.e., the APOE e4 allele), and advancements in direct-to-consumer genetic testing (e.g., 23andMe) have made these biological data widely available to the public. Is it helpful or harmful for clinicians to disclose information on genetic risk for Alzheimer’s disease to patients and research participants? How can we explain concepts such as risk and incomplete penetrance to our patients? We pose these questions, and others, to a neuropsychologist with research and clinical experience in this arena, as well as provide a primer on genetics.

12| Inside NavNeuro: University of Florida ANST Q & A Jan 15, 2019

We have a different kind of episode for you today. We were recently asked to speak about NavNeuro at an ANST brown bag lunch at the University of Florida. This episode is the audio from our Q & A with students who are particularly interested in the podcast and wanted to know more of the details about how we got started and what our plans are for the podcast, as well as a bit more about us on a personal level. We also cover lots of other interesting topics, like how to educate the general public and other clinicians about neuropsychology, how to explain difficult neuropsych concepts to a broad audience, and how to get into more controversial topics in the field.

11| The Human Microbiome and Mental Illness: The Gut-Brain Axis – A Conversation With Dr. Tanya Nguyen Jan 01, 2019

In our bodies, microbial genes outnumber human genes by about 100 to 1. The human microbiome (the bacteria, fungi, and viruses that live in us) has been linked to gastrointestinal diseases, immune functioning, type 2 diabetes, obesity, and more recently cognitive and psychiatric functioning. Today we speak with Dr. Tanya Nguyen, a neuropsychologist whose research is helping to clarify this link.
