A childhood experience during an accident, for which I have not yet found a scientific explanation, led me to explore the question as to how the brain responds to accidents. Among other things, I have investigated aphasia, a language disorder affecting the production or comprehension of speech, as a consequence of accidents. I have also produced a video on this topic.
