Harrison, a 45-year-old software engineer, suffered a traumatic brain injury that damaged his left motor cortex and Broca's area, initially leaving him unable to speak or move his right arm. Over the course of two years of intensive neurorehabilitation, Harrison regained much of his speech and motor control.
With reference to the case of Harrison, discuss plasticity and functional recovery of the brain after trauma.
