This week on Interchange, host Alycin Bektesh interviews Dr. Jill Bolte Taylor about her work as a Neuroanatomist. Dr. Taylor discusses her work as an anatomist and gives the viewer's a crash course in brain science. The interview goes on to discuss the stroke Dr. Taylor suffered in 1996 and her incredible recovery after having lost the ability to use language. The discussion turns to the work Dr. Taylor now that she is "fully recovered" including the book she authored and community art projects she has promoted that are so prominent around Bloomington.
