Concussion & the brain - Dr George Opie
Channel: TheBrainFoundation
Date: 20/03/2023

For years, concussion has been understood as a mild traumatic brain injury. But recent research shows that they aren’t always mild - they can have serious long-term effects. Researchers like Dr George Opie are now investigating new ways to diagnose, understand and treat this brain injury.

This resource was created as part of Brain Awareness Week 2023 for the Brain Foundation, an Australian charity dedicated to funding research into brain diseases, disorders, and injuries.
