Finding the Right Words: A Story of Literature, Grief, and the Brain

This episode we cover Alzheimer's disease from the neurobiology to the deeply personal. I have with me not one, but two fabulous guests! Professor Cindy Weinstein and Dr. Bruce Miller co-wrote Finding the Right Words, a dual-perspective memoir of Professor Weinstein's experience with her late father's Alzheimer's Disease and Dr. Miller's experience as a neurologist studying and diagnosing neurodegenerative conditions. Warning: this episode deals with difficult topics, so listen accordingly.
