In this episode, my guest is Dr. Gary Steinberg, MD, PhD, a neurosurgeon and a professor of neurosciences, neurosurgery, and neurology at Stanford University School of Medicine. We discuss brain health and brain injuries, including concussion, traumatic brain injury (TBI), stroke, aneurysm, and transient ischemic attacks (TIA). We discuss key and lesser-known risk factors for brain health and explain how certain treatments and medications can improve brain health and cognitive function. \nWe also cover novel mechanisms to improve recovery after concussions and brain injury, including the use of stem cells, temperature (mild hypothermia), and vagus nerve stimulation. Dr. Steinberg also describes new advances in neurosurgery and minimally invasive brain augmentation.\nThis episode ought to be of interest to anyone seeking actionable tools to improve their brain health and for those seeking to improve recovery after a brain injury such as concussion, stroke, aneurysm, or TBI.\nFor show notes, including referenced articles and additional resources, please visit hubermanlab.com.\nThank you to our sponsors\nAG1: https://drinkag1.com/huberman\nEight Sleep: https://eightsleep.com/huberman \nROKA: https://roka.com/huberman \nAeroPress: https://aeropress.com/huberman \nLMNT: https://drinklmnt.com/huberman \nTimestamps\n00:00:00 Dr. Gary Steinberg\n00:01:44 Sponsors: Eight Sleep, ROKA & AeroPress; Subscribe on YouTube, Spotify & Apple\n00:06:16 Stroke, Hemorrhage & Blood Clot\n00:10:25 Blood Clots & Risk Factors, Medications, Smoking, Cholesterol\n00:16:19 Heart & Brain Health; Neurosurgery & Brain Function\n00:23:27 Current Technology & Neurosurgery, Minimally Invasive Techniques\n00:28:13 Transient Ischemic Attacks (TIA); Spinal Cord Strokes\n00:33:23 Stroke Risk: Alcohol, Cocaine & Other Drugs\n00:38:24 Sponsor: AG1\n00:39:55 Traumatic Brain Injury (TBI), Concussion: Sports, Testing & Recovery\n00:46:45 Statins; TBI & Aspirin; Caffeine & Stroke Risk\n00:48:31 Exploratory MRI: Benefits & Risks\n00:51:53 Blood Pressure, Lifestyle Factors; Tool: Feeling Faint, Hydration; Sleep \n00:59:52 Sponsor: LMNT\n01:01:27 Chiropractic Neck Adjustment & Arterial Obstruction; Inversion Tables\n01:05:16 Kids, Tackle Football, Soccer, Boxing; Mild Concussion\n01:10:49 Nerve Regeneration, Stem Cells, Stroke Recovery\n01:17:36 Stem Cells, Immune System, Activity\n01:21:27 Injury & Recovery, Restraint Therapy\n01:23:46 Neuroprotection After Injury; Mild Hypothermia\n01:34:59 Platelet-Rich Plasma (PRP), Stem Cell Therapy\n01:42:27 Scientific Advancements & Clinical Translation, FDA & Industry\n01:47:40 Vagal Stimulation\n01:53:17 Zero-Cost Support, Spotify & Apple Reviews, YouTube Feedback, Social Media, Neural Network Newsletter\nDisclaimer
