A translational research approach to study mild traumatic brain injury

点击翻译按钮获取中文摘要

Mild traumatic brain injuries (mTBI), such as concussions, affect millions of people worldwide. Of particular concern are those at high risk of suffering repeated mTBIs, because they are associated with lasting neurological impairments and neurodegenerative disease. There are also no interventions known to prevent the effects of mTBI. My overarching research goal is to better understand mTBIs and to identify means to improve their diagnosis, management, and ultimately their clinical management.
