Elizabeth Spurlock's recent work focuses on brain injury and neurodegeneration, particularly chronic traumatic encephalopathy (CTE) in young athletes exposed to repeated head impacts. Her studies examine changes in brain tissue and cells (such as neuron loss, inflammation, and abnormal proteins like TDP-43) using postmortem brain and eye tissue, aiming to better understand how repetitive head trauma damages the brain over time.
