PUBLISHED!

Hi all! I'm excited to announce the project is officially PUBLISHED! I sincerely apologize for the length of time it's taken, however it was worth it to obtain accurate results. Thank you to everyone who's followed this research and supported me mentally, physically, and financially. I hope this helps future concussion research and aids in both military and sporting firearm usage safety! Link below-

    Good to see this completed - one of the only examples of quantifiable science on the topic available on the internet. Definitely worth broader scope/more in depth studies in the future.

About This Project

Sport concussion is currently a widely researched topic. Shooting sports do not impose a direct blow to the head but inflict rapid accelerations to the brain via recoil transfer. Repetitive gunshot recoil can impose neurometabolic change resulting in concussion like symptoms or traumatic brain injury (TBI). The impact of recoil on TBI is not determined. Evaluating brain specific blood biomarkers can contribute to neuroscience research in shooting sports, law enforcement and military.
