Patient HC with developmental amnesia can construct future scenarios

► Patients with developmental amnesia (DA) have a deficit in recalling the past. ► A number of DA patients have been found to be unimpaired at imagining fictitious/future scenarios. ► Unlike previous DA cases, patient HC was reported to be impaired. ► We tested HC and found her to be comparable to controls at imagining the future. ► Specific features of the previous testing may have underestimated HC's ability.
