Over 25 years ago, I lent this very book (@OliverSacks’ A Leg To Stand On) to a patient who had leg weakness from motor neurone disease. She read it after being discharged & returned it with a lovely letter with her thoughts on the book & comparisons/contrasts #MedTwitter 1/

If you’re a fan of Oliver Sacks, here’s a new book to pick up - “Dear Oliver,” a memoir that follows the ten year correspondence between Oliver Sacks and fellow neuroscientist Sue Barry, or “Stereo Sue” as he nicknamed her in a New Yorker piece. theexperimentpublishing.com/catalogs/winte…

It's still pretty hard to look at brains & read minds. String players are likelier to have a prominent pre-central gyrus "cortical knob" on the R hemisphere & keyboard players on the L Einstein (an enthusiastic violinist) had a R cortical knob (Falk) as well as other pursuits
“Anatomists today would be hard put to identify the brain of a visual artist, a writer or a mathematician - but they would recognize the brain of a professional musician without moment's hesitation.” -Oliver Sacks, Musicophilia

Today we remember Oliver Sacks. A naturalist, a writer, a psychonaut, but first and foremost a physician and explorer of the human condition. In this clip from a lecture he gave at Vanderbilt University in 1999, he talks about how many different "ways of being" there are.
Enjoying tremendously "Radiant Minds" – the new @audible_com original audio documentary about @OliverSacks by neuroscientist (and opera director!) @indrevis audible.com/blog/the-big-b…
Brilliant clinician and writer Oliver Sacks died OTD in 2015. I was once shopping with him and pointed out the fur on some leaves of fresh sage. Knowing Oliver was an amateur botanist, I asked him, "I wonder why these leaves are so furry?" "Because they LIKE it!" Oliver replied.
