A consultant neurologist with a particular interest in neurorehabilitation, Orlando Swayne’s work has taught him that a brain that’s been ‘broken’ has the potential to form new connections and mend itself.

Speaking profoundly to our Changing Your Mind theme, Swayne discusses How to Use a Fork: Stories of Mending the Broken Brain: his fascinating exploration of human recovery and survival that brings real-world rehabilitation case studies to life, asking questions about the very nature of consciousness itself.

Chaired by Maddison Connaughton.
