Introduction to Neuro(b)log for Patients

Dear patients, 

On this page you will find my own popular‑science articles written for you in the form of a blog I call Neuro(b)log for Patients. It is intended to be informative and is not meant to turn you into an instant doctor, nor is it a guide for self‑diagnosis or self‑treatment.

For the first topic in Neuro(b)log I chose a subject that is perhaps no longer as controversial as it once was: medicinal cannabis. Cannabis is currently very popular and experiencing a boom among both professional and lay audiences. We can approach the topic from many angles, so a series of follow‑up articles will appear.

Other topics will include, at the request of users on X:

• organic depression from a neurologist's perspective

• headaches — migraine

• tetany

I hope Neuro(b)log will find its readers. Enjoy the reading.
