For people interested in these things - another patient that I love reading about is Henry Molaison (HM). A coworker (a neuroscientist) told me a bit about the man and his condition, very interesting case.
- jkdearden 13y agoAnother similar case (albeit a more modern one) is Anatoli Bugorski, who caught his head in the path of a particle accelerator beam: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Anatoli_Bugorski http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Anatoli_Bugorski
- aylons 13y agoI currently work in a beam instrumentation project and jokingly refer to him as the patreon of beam instrumentation. However, I don't think his case is very interesting in a neuroscience pov. He did not forego any major psychological changes after the incident.
- DiabloD3 13y agoI've read about him before. The fact that he is still alive is amazing.
