About this episode
Peter Hamlyn is the founder and president of the Brain and Spine Foundation, after working as a neurosurgeon for 40 years.
He is perhaps best-known for saving the life of the boxer Michael Watson, who suffered a severe brain injury during a title fight in 1991 and was in a coma for 40 days. Peter performed seven brain operations and became a pioneer in the field of sports medicine, campaigning for better care for athletes.
He is now fascinated by how Artificial Intelligence might transform the diagnosis and care of neurological patients.
Peter's music includes Hildegard of Bingen, Berlioz, Handel and Prokofiev.
