Implementing neuropsychological rehabilitation following severe traumatic brain injury in a low-to-middle income country: a case report.

Time perception impairment following thalamic stroke: A case study.

Impaired time perception is considered to be a relatively unusual and poorly understood consequence of brain injury. This paper presents a case study of altered time perception in JB, a 50-year-old woman who in 2011 had a small thalamic stroke affecting the right anteromedian region. We report on her subjective experience and present results from studies of retrospective timing (i.
