In this video, Dr. Saakshi Khattri, a rheumatologist, discusses how rheumatoid arthritis can affect various parts of the body and outlines the most important actions patients can take to avoid complications.
Rehabilitation psychologists Abbey Hughes and Meghan Beier discuss common mental health disorders often experienced by patients with multiple sclerosis (MS). They explain how these disorders are typically diagnosed in a primary care setting and outline the signs to look for when treating patients with MS.
Doctoral student Chris Patrick presents findings from research on multiple sclerosis conducted in Dr. Brett Fling’s Sensorimotor Neuroimaging Lab. His work aims to understand neural components contributing to mobility impairment and explore intervention strategies promoting neuroplastic changes for functional recovery. Originally from northern Virginia, Chris’s interest in neuroscience began at Allegheny College, where he studied neural proliferation. He later worked at the Howard Hughes Medical Institute’s Janelia Research Campus on neural circuits in fruit flies. Now in CSU’s Molecular, Cellular, and Integrative Neuroscience program, Chris focuses on neural pathways related to mobility and balance in neurodegenerative diseases, aiming to develop neuro-focused recovery methods. After graduation, he hopes to lead his own research lab to advance neurorehabilitation strategies.
Have you ever experienced autistic regression? This occurs when your abilities seem to diminish, causing the progress you’ve made to feel like it’s fading away. During this period, you might appear “more autistic” to others. But what is happening? In this video, I discuss autism, regression, and how it manifests on the outside. I also delve into the concepts of burnout and unmasking, and how they contribute to autistic regression.
