Concussions on Your Mind




Concussion and mild traumatic brain injuries have been playing a huge role in the news cycle recently. From Will Smith's movie Concussion about Bennet Omalu and his work on chronic traumatic encephalopathy to the NFL's announcement that concussions are tied to brain damage, to most recently the finding that the NFL has missed 100s of concussions in their own studies, we've been seeing concussion work everywhere. Concussions are one of the most prevalent injuries and they do not discriminate by age, sex, occupation or any other demographic. Today I speak with Alissa Valentine about recent concussion research.
