Today we are talking to Nathan Pevy, a Ph.D. student from Sheffield Uni looking into the differences between types of losses of consciousness - covering epilepsy, PNES (Psychogenic Non-Epileptic Seizures)/NEAD (Non-Epileptic Attack Disorder), and Syncope (fainting); to figure out how to more effectively diagnose each. After all, to many, each can look pretty similar and we aren’t keen on misdiagnoses…
Nathan has both a degree in psychology and a master's in computational neuroscience, and is now mixing the two in his Ph.D. to benefit people affected by the aforementioned!
