As a child, Kuo Yu-cheng, director of the Contemporary Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM) Clinic, had a remarkable gift for music, effortlessly memorizing any melody after a single listen. However, one day, while playfully causing trouble at school, he struck the back of his head on a doorframe, and from that moment on, his ability to recall music vanished.
“That experience changed my life,” Kuo recalled. “It made me realize how profoundly head injuries can affect the brain and memory.”
