This tweet gave me chills after watching that tackle live. After years of working for @ShiftConcussion, we’ve been saying this for a long time. It’s time to #ShiftTheCulture.
If Tua takes the field tonight, it's a massive step back for #concussion care in the NFL. If he has a 2nd concussion that destroys his season or career, everyone involved will be sued & should lose their jobs, coaches included. We all saw it, even they must know this isn't right

Parker et al. show that susceptibility to concussion is linked to blood–brain barrier dysfunction (BBBD) and neuroinflammation. Pharmacological treatment of BBBD-induced inflammation improves neurological outcomes in a rodent model of TBI. bit.ly/3NGXxpZ

Concussion research has DEBUNKED the concussion MYTH that you should rest in a dark room after a concussion. Gradual return to activity and active rehabilitation are more effective ways to treat a concussion. #BrainInjuryAwareness

Brushing up on my acute concussion pathophysiology and can’t help but refer to some of my favourite figures from Giza & Hovda (2014) & back to my @ShiftConcussion roots! 🧠 #BrainInjury #Concussion #ConcussionRehab #NeurometabolicCascade

A large percentage of adolescents in this study with pre-existing mental health problems, current psych distress, or insufficient sleep met ICD-10 criteria for PCS; whereas those without those factors rarely met that definition. frontiersin.org/article/10.3…
