We Can Tune the Brain Like a Muscle: Here’s How
When his newborn son suffered a brain injury, neuroscientist Dr. Nicholas Dogris faced a parent's worst nightmare. Traditional treatments weren't enough. So he did something extraordinary – he built his own device.
In this profound episode, Méline meets the pioneer who spent 35 years developing a radical approach to brain therapy. His first test subject? Himself, at midnight, with his engineer watching nervously. "Just call 911," he told his partner, before pressing start. What happened next changed everything – not just for him, but for thousands with autism, ADHD, depression and brain injuries.
Dr. Dogris reveals how we're creating an "anxiety generation" addicted to phones, why medication often masks rather than heals, and how electromagnetic frequencies as gentle as Earth's natural pulse can retune the brain. His son? Now finishing university.

"We're not here to dull your edge," Dr Dogris says. "But when your brain truly heals, something unexpected happens – you feel everything more deeply. The good, the difficult, the beautiful. That's what a functional brain really means."
