Description
The Movers and Shakers are back in the Notting Hill pub, and this week they're joined by an illustrious guest. Professor Ludvic Zrinzo is a world renowned specialist in Deep Brain Stimulation (DBS) and, in her own words, the "only man to have been been inside [Gillian's] brain". DBS is an exciting but often misunderstood treatment in the world of Parkinson's care, and the gang are going to put Prof Zrinzo under the microscope. Who is right for DBS? Are there symptoms it won't help? And why are waiting lists so bloody long? Presented by Rory Cellan-Jones, Gillian Lacey-Solymar, Mark Mardell, Paul Mayhew-Archer, Sir Nicholas Mostyn, and Jeremy Paxman. With Professor Ludvic Zrinzo. Produced and edited by Nick Hilton for Podot. Additional editing by Ewan Cameron. Additional production by Adrian Lacey. Music by Alex Stobbs. Artwork by Till Lukat. PR by Sally Jones.
