Summary: A new brain modelling study that looks at what happens to the brains of NFL players following a collision...
Mislocalization of the TDP-43 protein alters the genetic instructions for UNC13A. The findings provide a potential new therapeutic target for the treatment of ALS and frontotemporal dementia.
A new neuroimaging test could help doctors identify CTE in those exposed to repetitive brain injuries, such as NFL players, a new study reports.
Researchers have identified abnormal areas of low blood flow in living NFL players. The findings could help provide better diagnosis and treatments for players with head trauma related to playing football.
Researchers have developed a new, non-invasive method of measuring Tau levels in the blood.
According to researchers, a new antibody therapy can help treat TBI and prevent the associated development of Alzheimer's disease and CTE.
Until now, chronic traumatic encephalopathy could only be diagnosed post-mortem. Researchers have identified a potential biomarker that could help diagnose CTE during a person's lifetime.
Former NFL players who started playing tackle football before the age of 12 have greater risk for altered brain development than those players who started later, a new study reports.
A new study reveals a commonality in gene activity related to the same immune response and inflammatory pathways in the brains of patients with Parkinson's and Huntington's disease.
A new study reviews how demands for institutional change led the NFL to change its ideology and engage in advocacy to address football related concussion.
A new study reports neuroinflammation could have a direct involvement in the development of CTE.
Researchers report a new compound could help prevent and may even reverse some of the brain injury caused by the Tau protein in dementia.
