Is Tylenol really linked to autism? Could leucovorin be a treatment? A look at the (real) science...
What’s new in neuroscience this month? Here are my top-viewed videos, in case you missed them… In the first video below, I address the rumors and confusion surrounding Tylenol and autism, following announcements from RFK Jr. & the Trump administration.
I also made a video covering Leucovorin, the new autism therapy that RFK Jr announced he is pushing through FDA approval. Is it legit? Find out here……….
Also, if you haven’t heard, my first book, Why Brains Need Friends: The Neuroscience of Social Connection will be published on October 14th!
We’ve all heard that isolation is bad for us - perhaps even as bad as smoking 15 cigarettes a day! But why? What does connecting with friends (or failing to) really do for the brain? In this book, I pull back the curtain on the mountains of fascinating neuroscience research that shows just how important connection is for brain health, and - importantly - explain it all so that anyone can follow. We all have brains, and we deserve to understand them. Plus, I dive into a range of related topics to help you live a more well-informed life, such as the neuroscience of empathy and love, the science of likability, the biology of loving a dog, how digital interactions compare to in-person meet-ups, and much more.
