Peter Wostyn, MD, works in the Department of Psychiatry, Psychiatrisch Centrum Sint-Amandus, Beernem, Belgium[1] and is a co-founder of P&X Medical, a biotech company focused on the treatment of intracranial pressure, cerebrospinal fluid turnover and glymphatic flow in neurodegenerative disorders, with a primary focus on glaucoma.[2]
Dr Wostyn developed the glymphatic dysfunction hypothesis which postulates that a dysfunction of the waste clearance system, called the glymphatic system, causes a build-up of toxins within the central nervous system, which precipitates at least some cases of chronic fatigue syndrome.[3]
