Together, these results suggest that concussion history in young adult collegiate athletes is not associated with changes in cortical volume. If you're interested, or want to chat more about these findings, please reach out.

While we did not observe relationships between concussion history and cortical thickness, we did find significant relationships between cortical volume and cognitive performance in the visual and dorsal attention network.

We also did not find any differences from before a diagnosed concussion to 48 hrs following a concussion, or a difference between participants with 2+ concussions to participants with no concussion history.

We did not identify any differences in cortical volume between the groups at the functional network level or at a more fine-grained anatomical region level

We found no consistent differences in baseline symptom reporting or cognitive performance between the groups

Is brain morphology different in young adults with and without concussion history? We examined a large (~300) population of college athletes and compared brain morphology between participants with concussion history and those who reported no history of concussion journals.plos.org/plosone/arti...

I'm honored to have helped organize the 72nd Annual Nebraska Symposium on Motivation. The focus this year will be: The Psychology of Performance Optimization in Collegiate Athletes. We have an incredible line up of speakers. For more information see: motivation.unl.edu
