A newly developed reparative hydrogel, which researchers are dubbing "brain glue", protects against loss of brain tissue following a TBI and can aid in functional neural repair.
By inhibiting a particular receptor microglia use to survive, researchers reduced neuroinflammation and prompted recovery following traumatic brain injury in mouse models.
Summary: A new brain modelling study that looks at what happens to the brains of NFL players following a collision...
Researchers provide an alternative formula to predict when cavitation will happen. The formula may be used to better predict brain injuries caused by high velocity impact.
A single head injury can increase the risk of developing dementia, especially in women. Suffering more than one head injury increases the risk further, a new study reports.
Researchers claim to have identified a switch in the brain of people with epilepsy which dictates whether their seizures will be mild or lead to a loss of consciousness.
Researchers have discovered a new method that can predict a person's current level of awareness and whether they will recover awareness within a year of a TBI.
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.
Findings raise more questions about the origins of human cognition.
A new study reports teenage athletes who suffered concussion while playing sport recovered faster when they participated in a supervised aerobic exercise program.
Researchers recommend accommodations be made in the classroom for children recovering from concussions.
Researchers find no significant difference in concussion symptoms and recovery times between different age groups, from middle school children to college athletes.
