Anne-Lise Christensen, Adjunct Professor Emerita of Neuropsychological Rehabilitation, University of Copenhagen, died February 11, 2018. Anne-Lise was not only a central figure within Danish neuropsychology but had both domestically & internationally worldwide critical significance for the fruitful development of holistic rehabilitation of TBI persons. Having worked intensively during her various study visits with the Soviet neuropsychologist Alexander Romanowitsch Lurija (1902-1972) at Burdenko Neurosurgery Institute, Moscow University, she has internalized his theories on the functioning of the frontal lobe and the existence of zones of brain cells working in concert. Luria’s concept and way of holistic treatment became decisive for her life.
