Neurocognitive and Biomarker Evaluation of Combination mTBI from Blast Overpressure and Traumatic Stress

Abstract

The objective of this research proposal is to systematically assess the combined effects of BOP and exposure to traumatic stress in rodents with the aim of understanding how these forces may interact with the manifestation of cognitive and emotive dysfunction, as well as evaluating their outcome on known biomarkers involved in TBI and stress response system activation.
