Experimental and Computational Studies of Blast and Blunt Traumatic Brain Injury
Abstract
This project is a joint U.S. - India JCTD that will yield a mechanistic understanding of blast and blunt related mild traumatic brain injury (TBI) that will serve as the basis for developing effective personal protective equipment designed to prevent or mitigate TBI; tools for rapidly screening and diagnosing service members involved in potentially concussive events; and effective therapies for treating and rehabilitating service members with blast and blunt related TBI. In addition, the project will enhance the DoD’s ability to use advanced imaging tools and techniques for both diagnostics and prognostics.
