About Shaina Cahill

I have a Ph.D. in neuroscience from the University of British Columbia, and I have been working in medical affairs related to non-traditional medicines since leaving academia. My current role allows me to bridge the gap between scientific knowledge and public understanding, with a focus on the importance of gut health. I have also established a presence in science communication through my YouTube channel, where I create educational content on topics related to the gut microbiome and its impact on overall health. Here are a few potential discussion points:

1. Understanding the Gut Microbiome: Delving into the intricate world of the gut microbiome and its role in maintaining overall health. Could talk about how the gut becomes unhealthy and what can be done to make a healthier gut and you (i.e. exercise, diet, sleep)

2. FMT: Breaking Stereotypes: Dispelling myths and misconceptions surrounding Fecal Microbiota Transplantation and exploring its therapeutic potential.

3. Non-traditional Medicines: Discussing the challenges and opportunities in the field of non-traditional medicines, especially concerning gut health.

4. How gut health can impact the brain: Cover how the gut and brain are connected, how gut development impacts brain development and how both affect our health.
