In this episode, I sit down with Nikki Schultek to explore the growing evidence that chronic infections may play an important role in Alzheimer's disease and other neurodegenerative conditions. We discuss her remarkable journey from Lyme disease patient to research leader, why collaboration across medical disciplines matters, and how understanding infections, inflammation, and the immune system could transform the future of brain health and dementia prevention.
