In this episode of our Neuroscience Research series, hosts Filippo Dall'Armellina and Dr. Michael Cearns engage in a fascinating conversation with Professor Ben Michael, Director of The Brain Infection & Inflammation Group at the University of Liverpool. Together, they delve into the emerging field of neuro-COVID and Covid-19 associated neurological complications, exploring the ongoing research and the challenges of understanding this novel and complex topic.


Research Highlights:
- Needham EJ, et al. Brain injury in COVID-19 is associated with dysregulated innate and adaptive immune responses. Brain. 2022.
- Michael BD, et al. Para-infectious brain injury in COVID-19 persists at follow-up despite attenuated cytokine and autoantibody responses. Nat Commun. 2023.
- Wook GK, et al. Post-hospitalisation COVID-19 cognitive deficits at one year are global and associated with elevated brain injury markers and grey matter volume reduction. Nat Med. 2024.
