Dogs Help With Possible Cure For Dementia! - The Brain&Mind Institute - a podcast by Kaye Browne & Brian Pickering

Timmy - a 13 year old Spaniel is the unlikely symbol of hope for Dementia sufferers around the world after receiving a unique form of stem cell therapy which appears to have restored his memory…and in so doing… saved his life!

In this podcast you'll hear Timmy's 'dad' Tony Leeder-Smith explain how Timmy behaved at home before treatment.

Assoc. Prof. Michael Valenzuela from the Brain & Mind Institute reveals how the stem-cell therapy works and Dementia Trial Co-ordinator Dr Sarah Toole outlines the process of determining whether the therapy has worked using a sand maze!
