Artificial intelligence has entered the academic workflow. Can we trust it?

In this episode, we share how we use large language models (LLMs) like ChatGPT in our daily work: from drafting emails, organizing messy thoughts, and processing large datasets, to searching through the overwhelming flood of new research.

But it’s not all smooth sailing. We also dive into the current struggles and limitations; inaccurate information, fabricated references, and the risk of leaning too heavily on a tool that doesn’t always get it right.

We ask the big question: Is AI the next step in how we process and synthesize science, or just another imperfect tool we’ll have to learn to manage?

Functional Neurological Disorder (FND) is increasingly understood as a disruption in how the brain predicts and processes sensory input. Instead of reacting to the world, our brains constantly anticipate what’s coming next—but in FND, that system breaks down. Dr. Lane shares how predictive coding helps explain real symptoms like tremors or non-epileptic seizures, even without structural brain damage—and how treatments like TMS may help reset these faulty circuits.

A powerful conversation about neuroscience, healing, and how context shapes recovery.

Curious about Transcranial Magnetic Stimulation (TMS)? In this episode of The Journey of Science, we dive into what TMS is, how it works, and why it’s gained traction as a treatment for depression and other neurological conditions. We explore:

• How TMS uses magnetic fields to modulate brain activity
• Differences between low- and high-frequency TMS
• The research behind FDA approvals and clinical applications
• Emerging uses for OCD, PTSD, migraines, and more
• Mechanistic insights from studies in humans and animal models
