Dr. Michael Young of Massachusetts General Hospital (MassGeneral News) discusses what happens to some patients with cognitive motor dissociation after their initial diagnosis in an acute setting. Hear more from Dr. Young: nej.md/itt-ep38

Michael Young is an important voice in medical discussions of consciousness because of his philosophical background and ethical research. It's a stereoscope we need more of, and NEJM made a great decision interviewing him. I wish they let him run more on the philosophy though.
