In an exclusive interview, Mediaplanet had the chance to talk to Jason Silva, the host of National Geographic’s award winning series, Brain Games. He shared his thoughts on human creativity, futurism, and how we can extend the boundaries of our minds. He notes, “Knowledge is addicting. Humans get a hit of dopamine in the brain whenever we’re exposed to novel stimuli….We have an insatiable urge to understand, to question, to deconstruct what is fascinating.”
Another editorial featuring Carrie Maclean, mother of two, shares how she took charge of her multiple sclerosis, did her research, and played an active role in her treatment. “This is not a death sentence. This disease is manageable. You can live a long life.” She adds that, “The research is changing so fast. You need to be your own best advocate.”
Special thanks to Genzyme Canada, Cynapsus Therapeutics, Biogen Idec, Kalgene Pharmaceuticals, Weston Brain Institute, Epilepsy Canada, the University Health Network, Brain Canada, Ontario Science Centre and Neurological Health Charities Canada for
