This week Dr. Audrey Nath is joined by Peter Frampton to talk about his 2015 diagnosis of inclusion body myositis (IBM).

He discusses how music helps him manage his condition as he continues to experience mobility changes. Dr. Nath is then joined by Dr. Steven Greenberg, neuromuscular neurologist at Brigham and Women’s Hospital and professor at Harvard Medical School. Dr. Greenberg explains the characteristics of IBM as well as the similarities and differences between other neuromuscular diseases, such as ALS and Sjögren’s syndrome.  Additional Resources:    https://www.brainandlife.org/articles/peter-frampton-found-new-purpose-after-inclusion-body-myositis-diagnosis  https://www.brainandlife.org/disorders-a-z/disorders/inclusion-body-myositis  https://www.hopkinsmyositis.org/gift/peter-frampton-myositis-research-fund/   https://www.frampton.com/  Social Media:    Guest: Peter Frampton @peterframpton  Hosts: Dr. Daniel Correa @neurodrcorrea; Dr. Audrey Nath @AudreyNathMDPhD
