In this episode of the Brain & Life podcast, veteran Lindsay Gutierrez joins co-host Dr. Daniel Correa. Lindsay shares about how she went from sustaining a traumatic brain injury (TBI) on duty to climbing Mount Kilimanjaro! She explains how her injury happened, what her recovery process was like, mental health symptoms she experienced, and how she came to climb the fourth-highest peak in the world. Dr. Correa is then joined by Dr. Michael Jaffee, a board-certified neurologist, director of the University of Florida Brain Injury, Rehabilitation and Neuroresilience Center, and chair of the UF Department of Neurology. Dr. Jaffee breaks down the distinct types of TBIs, how patients are affected, and what preventative measures are being worked on.
