Is your brain really healthy—or just coping?
In this episode of The Dr. Mollie James Show, Dr. James is joined by Dr. Mark Tommerdahl, retired neuroscience researcher from UNC and creator of the Brain Gauge—a groundbreaking device that painlessly and non-invasively measures your brain’s health in real time.
Together, they discuss:
How vibrating your fingertips can reveal early signs of dementia or brain injury
The true reason brain games on your phone may be useless
Why most neurologic assessments miss the mark
How you can train and improve your brain at home
The massive potential of hyperbaric oxygen therapy, electroceuticals, and neuroplasticity tools
How the U.S. military helped fund a device to monitor brain health over a service member’s lifetime
With over 140 published studies and use in elite clinics, Brain Gauge is transforming how we screen, track, and even train the brain—whether you’re facing TBI, memory loss, or just want to stay sharp.
