Tales From The Cortex

Tales From the Cortex is a story-driven neurology podcast that takes you inside the mysteries of the human brain. Each episode begins with a patient, a symptom, and a clinical mystery. Follow the story as it unfolds and become the patient's neurologist: What questions would you ask? Where would you localize the problem? Which tests would you order? And what would you do next? Hosted by neurologists Dr. Andrew Micieli and Dr. Michelle Jaeggi, Tales From the Cortex explores how neurologists think, make decisions, and navigate uncertainty—one case at a time. No medical degree required. Just curiosity. Every symptom is a clue. Every brain has a story.
