In today's podcast episode, we'll talk about a pioneering brain wave test that could dramatically increase the early diagnosis of Alzheimer's. This new EEG technique is known as Fast Periodic Visual Stimulation and joining us on today’s episode to better understand it is none other than Dr George Stothart.
