Guests:

  • Brandon Foreman, MD, associate professor of clinical, associate director, Neurocritical Care Research, University of Cincinnati
  • Rachel Ramirez, director of health and disability programs and founder of the Center on Partner-Inflicted Brain Injury, Ohio Domestic Violence Network

The University of Cincinnati is a financial supporter of Cincinnati Public Radio.
