What happens when science meets the strength of the human spirit?
In this moving conversation, Dr. Stefano Sinicropi sits down with Dr. Galen Buckwalter, a pioneering researcher who turned personal tragedy into a mission to help others. After a spinal cord injury left him paralyzed, Dr. Buckwalter became one of the first participants in a brain-implant research program.
He knew it might never change his own life—but it could change the future for countless others.
Together, they explore:
✅ How brain-computer interfaces are restoring movement through thought
✅ The emotional side of scientific breakthroughs
✅ What resilience and purpose really mean in the face of limitation
This episode goes beyond technology. It’s a reflection on what it means to be human and how purpose can grow from even the hardest experiences.
📺 Watch the full episode and be inspired by the science of resilience.
