Why do we still make mistakes in our profession even after 25 years? How can we explain the omission of a step in a protocol or the reversal of a sample during a medical analysis? And if it was all a question of neurosciences...

The brain and automatisms are false friends. A human adapts to its environment through the implementation of automatisms, but these adjustments sometimes lead to error. By combining the latest research in neurosciences with her experience as a corporate consultant, Isabelle Simonetto explains the workings of the human brain in a playful and accessible way to avoid memory traps and increase safety at work. The practical advice she presents in this book applies to all professional sectors, from nuclear power to pharmaceutical laboratories, from aeronautics to logistics.
