Boundless Body Radio Research on Ketosis and Mental Health with Dr. Iain Campbell! 621
Dr. lain Campbell is the Baszucki Research Fellow in Metabolic Psychiatry at the University of Edinburgh. He has a PhD in Global Health from the University of Edinburgh and is a principal investigator on a pilot trial of a ketogenic diet for bipolar disorder at The Division of Psychiatry within the Centre for Clinical Brain Sciences.
Dr. Campbell has lived experience of Bipolar Disorder Type 2 and has experienced the benefits of ketogenic metabolic therapy for over 8 years. Growing evidence from the fields of genomics, epigenomics, metabolomics, and transcriptomics points to a significant biological overlap between metabolic dysfunction (such as insulin resistance, obesity, and type 2 diabetes) and severe psychopathology (including psychosis, mania, and severe depression), and this awareness has been recently gaining popularity.
Dr. Campbell is also a composer interested in the intersection between bipolar disorder, creativity, and music. He worked for 5 years as the Music Producer for global interactive entertainment company Rockstar Games (Grand Theft Auto, Red Dead Redemption) and as assistant to film composer Harry Gregson-Williams.
