Join us for another morning of Inspire; this time at Agora! Our guest speaker is Dr. Matthew CL Phillips, a Neurologist at Waikato Hospital.
Matthew Phillips is a full-time neurologist based in Waikato Hospital, Hamilton, New Zealand. His main interest is to explore the role of dietary modification, particularly ketogenic diets, as potential therapies in a variety of neurological disorders. In 2017, his team completed the world's first randomized controlled study to involve a ketogenic diet in people with Parkinson's disease, recently published in the journal Movement Disorders. In 2019, his team will conduct a similar randomized controlled study in people with Alzheimer's disease.
This is a free event, and breakfast available for purchase at the cafe.
