42.47 | June 10, 2026
This episode features Pierpaolo Busan, PhD, a Tenure-Track Researcher at the University of Trieste and STARS Scientific Advisor, whose work focuses on the neurophysiological mechanisms of stuttering and rehabilitation approaches through neuromodulation, EEG/MEG, and neurofeedback.

In this episode, Dr. Busan discusses:
- His personal journey as a researcher and person who stutters
- What emerging neuroscience reveals about the brain and stuttering
- How neuromodulation therapies like TMS and tES may benefit people who stutter
- What he hopes clinicians and the broader research community will come to better understand about this field
