Teach Me in 10

In a COVID-19 special of Teach Me in 10, we're joined by Dr Paul-Peter Tak. Dr Tak's resume is impressive; he is an immunologist, academic, business leader and entrepreneur, perhaps best known for his pioneering work into the effect of bioelectronics in inflammatory diseases.

Admittedly – this installment of Teach Me in 10 is a little over 10 minutes – but we think it's worth sharing the full insights Dr Tak provided us on the the vagus nerve, how its stimulation has proven a promising treatment approach in certain inflammatory conditions – both in preclinical and clinical tests – and how this research can be translated to COVID-19.
