Podcasts about transverse myelitis centers

Dr. Adam Kaplin is a neuropsychiatrist and serves as the principle psychiatric consultant to the Johns Hopkins Multiple Sclerosis and Transverse Myelitis Centers at Johns Hopkins. He received his M.D. and Ph.D. degrees after completing the Medical Scientist Training Program at Hopkins, where he subsequently completed a residency in psychiatry. Dr. Kaplin's research focuses on the biological basis of affective disorders in autoimmune diseases of the central nervous system, such as depression as a symptom of multiple sclerosis. We are very excited to feature his perspectives on career paths in medicine and the mind-brain sciences! 

This is a wonderful and much-needed conversation regarding the depression we feel with Multiple Sclerosis. Dr. Adam Kaplin completed his undergraduate training at Yale University and his MD and Ph.D. training at the Johns Hopkins School of Medicine. His research training experience includes having trained in the labs of two Nobel Laureates, and completed his Ph.D. and postdoctoral training in the Lab of Solomon Snyder, MD, who was the 2005 recipient of the National Medal of Science (the highest scientific honor in the United States).  Dr. Kaplin is the Chief Psychiatric Consultant to the Johns Hopkins Multiple Sclerosis and Transverse Myelitis Centers, where he is an integral member of the clinical and research endeavors at these Centers of Excellence. Dr. Kaplin investigates the biological basis of the effects of the immune system on mood regulation and cognition, and he provides neuropsychiatric care to patients afflicted with such comorbidities. His research is focused on understanding the biological basis of depression and dementia and discovering new ways to diagnose prognosticate and treat these diseases. Dr. Kaplin has also been involved in helping to develop and apply technological innovations to improve patient care and clinical research, especially as it applies to mental and behavioral health. He is the inventor and co-developer of www.mood247.com, an automated mood tracking technology that also serves as a personalized, patient-controlled electronic health diary. For this work, he won the Inaugural Elsevier Clinical Keys Innovator Award 2013, and the 2015 PM360 ELITE Tech-Know Geek Award. His work using mHealth technology to prevent suicide has resulted in him consulting with the Pentagon and speaking at the Whitehouse on several occasions. Dr. Kaplin is on the board of medical advisors to the Montel Williams MS Foundation, Cody Unser First Step Foundation, Nancy Davis MS Foundation, and Center Without Walls, and Johns Hopkins Multiple Sclerosis and Transverse Myelitis Center’s Project RESTORE. He is also a medical advisor to Remedy Health Media, Anthrotronix Inc and Revon Systems.  He has presented his work through published articles in premier scientific journals, through talks and seminars at national and international conferences. https://timekeepsticking.podbean.com/ Contact me cindylocke47@yahoo.com Contact me cindylocke47@yahoo.com  Contact me cindylocke47@yahoo.com   

Host: Jennifer Caudle, DO Mood tracking, a novel integration of technology with psychiatric care to track mental status changes over time, has the potential to fundamentally change how clinicians treat behavioral health disorders. Will smartphone apps become the vehicle for this technology to the wider masses? Dr. Adam Kaplin, Principle Psychiatric Consultant to the Johns Hopkins Multiple Sclerosis and Transverse Myelitis Centers of Excellence, is the founder and inventor of Mood 24/7, a mobile app that allows people to record their mood daily and share this data with their health care providers to provide better accuracy in reporting mood symptoms. He joins Dr. Jennifer Caudle to discuss the emergence of mood tracking portals such as Mood 24/7 and the ways they can transform mental health care.

Host: Matt Birnholz, MD Psychiatry gets a bad rep for being one of the more "technophobic" fields in clinical medicine. This negative association stems in part to the difficulty in tracking changes in mood, cognition, and certain behaviors over time. But there is a growing contingency of psychiatric clinicians who are bringing technology into this specialty to help propel standards in mental health care. Dr. Adam Kaplin, Assistant Professor of Psychiatry at Johns Hopkins School of Medicine and Principle Psyciatric Consultant to the Johns Hopkins Multiple Sclerosis and Transverse Myelitis Centers of Excellence, joins Dr. Jennifer Caudle to discuss ways in which technological innovations can enhance psychiatric care and decrease stigma surrounding mental illness.
