En este episodio abordo la farmacología en neurorrehabilitación del adulto desde una perspectiva clínica y realista, pensada especialmente para profesionales no médicos que conviven a diario con informes, pautas y nombres de fármacos sin disponer siempre de un marco claro para interpretarlos. Recorremos los principales medicamentos utilizados en patologías neurológicas frecuentes —ictus, lesión medular, esclerosis múltiple, enfermedad de Parkinson, ELA, distonías y traumatismo craneoencefálico— diferenciando entre tratamientos agudos, terapias modificadoras de la enfermedad y manejo farmacológico de secuelas. A lo largo del episodio explico de forma progresiva los mecanismos de acción, la base neurofisiológica y el estado actual de la evidencia, poniendo especial énfasis en qué fármacos realmente cambian el pronóstico y cuáles cumplen un papel fundamentalmente sintomático. El objetivo no es prescribir, sino entender mejor cómo la farmacología condiciona la recuperación, la participación en terapia y la toma de decisiones en neurorrehabilitación, con una mirada crítica y basada en la evidencia disponible.

On the afternoon of August 23, 2003, Erie, Pennsylvania pizza delivery driver Brian Wells walked into the local branch of the PNC Bank and handed the teller a note warning that he had a bomb and they had fifteen minutes to hand over $250,000 or it would detonate. Unable to access the vault, the teller gave Wells all the cash on hand and he left as the employees triggered the emergency protocol.Fifteen minutes later, Wells was spotted by police and placed under arrest. However, when they went to put handcuffs on the suspects, the officers discovered that Wells did indeed have an explosive device on him—it was strapped to his neck and rigged to explode. Officers cleared the area, but failed to alert the bomb squad in time and the device eventually exploded, killing Wells just three minutes before the bomb squad arrived.The bizarre death of Brian Wells seemed to bring his brief criminal career to an end; yet as investigators began digging into the background of the delivery driver-turned-bank robber, they discovered the plot to rob the PNC Bank was far more elaborate than anyone had imagined. ReferencesAssociated Press. 2003.

No election in 2025 has been more impacted by the Trump presidency than the elections in Virginia.

Meanwhile in the Attorney General race, the Republican incumbent, Jason Miyares could pull off an unexpected comeback, so we talked to voters who are splitting their tickets between Spanberger and Miyares. Former Richmond Times-Dispatch columnist and University of Virginia Center for Politics scholar Jeff Schapiro joins the show to put this year's election in the context of Virginia's broad political evolution.
