Event Description

“It is a serious matter for a man to be acquainted with himself.”
Phineas Gage was a construction foreman who miraculously survived an iron rod piercing his brain in 1848 (true story). Present-day neuropsychologist Helen Harlow, a direct descendant of the doctor who treated Phineas’ injury, expertly understands the human brain, yet her own remains a mystery. Their stories entwine, showing how far we have advanced scientifically, and yet how little we still comprehend of how our own minds work.
