What Happens to Your Brain When You Crack Your Dome....
Sometimes your life gets turned upside down and you get stopped in your tracks- literally, this happened to me when I was hit by a car on 14th St. As a result, I have learned a LOT about what brain injury is, why it's actually kind of cool (in a biology geek sort of way), and why YOU should care. I promise to be light hearted, interesting, and I won't use any crazy science words- but I will challenge what you think you know about what happens when people get hurt.
