| Abstract (English): |
Stephen Hawking, author of the most fundamental theories of black hole´s behavior and other considerations of time and space, suffers from amyotrophic lateral sclerosis, diagnosed during his last year at Oxford, as described in the movie The Theory of Everything (2014) directed by James Marsh and produced by Anthony McCarten. Amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS) or Lou Gehrig´s disease is a neurodegenerative disorder that causes progressive weakness of voluntary muscles. It is characterized by a degeneration of motor neurons in the motor cortex, brain stem and spinal cord. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR] |
| Abstract (Spanish): |
Stephen Hawking, autor de las teorías más fundamentales sobre el comportamiento de los agujeros negros, entre otras consideraciones sobre el tiempo y el espacio; padece de esclerosis lateral amiotrófica, la cual le fue diagnosticada durante su último año en Oxford, tal y como se describe en la película La teoría del todo (2014) dirigida por James Marsh y producida por Anthony McCarten. La esclerosis lateral amiotrófica (ELA) o enfermedad de Lou Gehrig es una alteración neurodegenerativa progresiva que ocasiona debilitamiento gradual de la musculatura voluntaria. Se caracteriza por una pérdida progresiva de la moto‐neurona de la corteza motora, tronco del encéfalo y médula espinal. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR] |
