Case Study | Speaking Without Speech | Aphasia & Aphemia

What happens when someone says “I can’t talk” yet they are speaking? In this lecture, Dr. Xavier Jimenez explores the fascinating and often misunderstood conditions of aphasia and aphemia. Through the story of a woman who lost the ability to speak in the usual sense but still produced speech-like sounds, we uncover what these diagnoses mean, how they differ, and why understanding them is crucial in both medicine and everyday life.

If you have ever wondered how the brain and language connect and disconnect this lecture will give you a clear and practical perspective.
