Research summary

Dana Waltzman studies traumatic brain injuries (TBI) and concussions, with a strong focus on how these injuries affect children and adolescents. Much of the work uses large national surveys and surveillance data to measure how common these injuries are, their outcomes (such as school performance and mental health), and how schools and sports programs manage them. The research also includes clinical trials testing treatments and recovery approaches for concussion and chronic brain injury.
