SUMMARY:Live Online Author Talk: The Mind Electric by Pria Anand at Riverhead Free Library
DESCRIPTION:Join a captivating online discussion with neurologist and author Pria Anand about her latest book\, The Mind Electric: A Neurologist on the Strangeness and Wonder of Our Brains\, hosted by the Riverhead Free Library. The book released on June 10\, and this event provides an exclusive opportunity to delve into the intriguing narratives that our brains construct. \nThe Mind Electric explores the fascinating intersection of narrative and neurology\, shedding light on how our brains are deeply coded for storytelling. The book presents a range of compelling case studies\, historical accounts\, fables\, and memoirs to illustrate the complexity of our brains in health and in extremis. \nAnand’s work takes us on a journey from her patient ward in Boston\, to her childhood in India\, and to far-flung locations like Isla Providencia in the Caribbean and the Republic of Guinea in West Africa. The book underscores the paradox at the heart of neurology: even the most peculiar symptoms can reveal universal truths about our humanity. \nAbout the Author: Pria Anand is a neurologist at the Boston Medical Center and an assistant professor at the Boston University School of Medicine. She is a graduate of Yale University and Stanford Medical School\, and she trained in neurology\, neuro-infectious diseases\, and neuroimmunology at the Johns Hopkins Hospital and the Massachusetts General Hospital. \nThis event is free to attend and will take place on July 31\, from 2 p.m. to 3 p.m.
