Abstract

If someone asked you which sense you would chose to give up, would you 
chose the sense of smell?  Most people do. Yet, we miss it greatly once 
it is gone.  This is a discussion about loss, brain injury, and our 
sense of smell.  Parts of a film, made with the assistance of UTC 
students and those individuals with a brain injury who were willing to 
share their story on film, will be shown.  Discussion will center around 
the film and related research.


Professional Background

Dr. Ozbek received her B.S., M.S., and Ph.D. from The University  of 
Georgia and did her Post Doctoral Fellowship at Johns Hopkins Medical 
school. Her research interests include physical and emotional recovery 
following Brain Injury.
