SUMMARY:The Havana Syndrome:  A Disorder of Neuropolitics?
DESCRIPTION:In one of the most extraordinary cases in the history of science\, the mating calls of insects were mistaken for a “sonic weapon” that led to a major diplomatic row. The lecture will trace the origins of the syndrome\, the response of the U.S. government\, the results of scientific investigations and opinions\, the evolution of the syndrome over time and similar phenomena that have occurred in the past. \nRobert W. Baloh\, MD is Professor of Neurology and Head and Neck Surgery (Emeritus) at the David Geffen School of Medicine at UCLA. Author of 14 books and more than 350 articles in peer-reviewed journals\, he is a pioneer in the study of the vestibular system and clinical neurotology. He has a recent book on Havana Syndrome co-authored with Robert Bartholomew\, a sociologist from New Zealand. Two other recent books are: “Medically Unexplained Symptoms” and “Exercise and the Brain”.
