In Fixing the Brain we follow some researchers who have only one obsession: to understand how our brains work in order to fix what needs to be fixed.
By reconnecting the brains and legs of disabled patients using technology, Jocelyne Bloch and Grégoire Courtine have achieved a world pioneering achievement: getting young paraplegics to walk again. The formidable Étienne Émile Baulieu, at 95, continues to work on a new kind of molecule that could help cure depression. And as for Professor Steven Laureys, he is scientifically studying the most mysterious states of consciousness such as coma, and his discoveries are incredible.
