In the tradition of My Stroke of Insight and Brain on Fire, this powerful memoir recounts her ordeal and explains its unforgettablelessons about the brain and mind. In January 2015, Barbara Lipska--a leading expert on the neuroscience of mental illness--was diagnosed with melanoma that had spread to her brain. Within months, her frontal lobe, the seat of cognition, began shutting down. She descended intomadness, exhibiting dementia- and schizophrenia-like symptoms that terrified her family and coworkers. But miraculously, just as her doctors figured out what was happening, the immunotherapy they had prescribed began to work. Just eight weeks after her nightmare began, Lipska returned to normal. With one difference: she remembered her brush with madness with exquisite clarity. In The Neuroscientist Who Lost Her Mind, Lipska describes her extraordinary ordeal and its lessons about the mind and brain. She explains how mental illness, brain injury, and age can change our behavior, personality, cognition, and memory. She tells what it is like to experience these changes firsthand. And she reveals what parts of us remain, evenwhen so much else is gone"-- $c Provided by publisher. 600 10 $a Lipska, Barbara K. $x Health. 600 12 $a Lipska, Barbara K. 650 0 $a Melanoma $x Patients $v Biography. 650 0 $a Brain metastasis $x Patients $v Biography. 650 0 $a Neuroscientists $v Biography. 650 2 $a Melanoma. $0 (DNLM)D008545 650 2 $a Brain Neoplasms. $0 (DNLM)D001932 650 2 $a Medical Laboratory Personnel. $0 (DNLM)D017056 650 7 $a BIOGRAPHY & AUTOBIOGRAPHY $x Personal Memoirs. $2 bisacsh 650 7 $a SCIENCE $x Neuroscience. $x Neuroscience. $2 bisacsh 650 7 $a PSYCHOLOGY $x Mental Health. $2 bisacsh 650 7 $a BIOGRAPHY & AUTOBIOGRAPHY $x Medical. $2 bisacsh 655 2 $a Autobiography. $0 (DNLM)D020493 655 7 $a Autobiographies. $2 lcgft 700 1 $a McArdle, Elaine, $e author. 776 08 $i Online version: $a Lipska, Barbara K. $t Neuroscientist who lost her mind. $d Boston : Houghton Mifflin Harcourt, 2018 $z 9781328787279 $w (DLC) 2017054093 941 $a 32 952 $l GYPE631 $d 20240626020051.0 952 $l DPPE403 $d 20240611022135.0 952 $l ALPE516 $d 20240417014045.0 952 $l GOPG641 $d 20240409031231.0 952 $l SFPH074 $d 20240314015152.0 952 $l BRPD251 $d 20240119014507.0 952 $l YEPF572 $d 20231012024235.0 952 $l GMPD771 $d 20230210021250.0 952 $l BVPE851 $d 20220728011419.0 952 $l YCPD572 $d 20220518022256.0 952 $l WAPD715 $d 20210924014907.0 952 $l GEPG771 $d 20210722055326.0 952 $l GHPD771 $d 20210204023138.0 952 $l TYPH572 $d 20200110073612.0 952 $l AAPF906 $d 20190717035126.0 952 $l SCPC074 $d 20190417011018.0 952 $l GSPC501 $d 20181218012327.0 952 $l XXPH787 $d 20181107051837.0 952 $l BOPG851 $d 20181006114406.0 952 $l MXPG943 $d 20180907030619.0 952 $l MBPE423 $d 20180907020428.0 952 $l DBPE173 $d 20180906013854.0 952 $l ZYPE837 $d 20180801013014.0 952 $l VBPC034 $d 20180730104211.0 952 $l CYPF706 $d 20180728010354.0 952 $l GBPF771 $d 20180602010801.0 952 $l YTPG232 $d 20180519011819.0 952 $l ZXPC675 $d 20180515031007.0 952 $l UQAX771 $d 20180515030429.0 952 $l CAPH522 $d 20180502010458.0 952 $l VOPB384 $d 20180406011106.0 952 $l KOPC446 $d 20180406010412.0 956 $a http://locator.silo.lib.ia.us/search.cgi?index_0=id&term_0=C23B988A370411E887D7D95B97128E48 994 $a C0 $b C@VInitiate Another SILO Locator Search
