How An Epilepsy Patient's Devastating Experimental Neurosurgery Taught the World About Memory Ep 23
In this episode, I will introduce you to Patient H.M.—as he was known for 50 years. His real name is Henry Molaison, which was revealed after his death in 2008. In 1953, Henry underwent experimental surgery to correct his epilepsy—which was cured—but with devastating consequences.
*Podcast correction, the lesion in the frontal lobe was discovered after his death from reviewing the tissue sections, not from the MRI. It was caused by the original surgery.
If you would like to read more about Patient H.M. and what was learned by studying his brain, check out the article in Nature Communications, 2014.
