Recovery of FunctionTraumatic brain injury (TBI) is a major health issue comprising a heterogeneous and complex array of pathologies. Over the last several decades, numerous animal models have been developed to
Traumatic brain injury (TBI) is defined as the damage to the brain as a result of mechanical forces like crush, violent blow, or jolt to the head from blunt or penetrating object into the skull like a bullet or a sharp object. TBI may or may not alter the consciousness of person, but...

Finite element models have become useful tools to investigate the biomechanics of traumatic brain injury - a global leading cause of death and disability and a risk factor for developing neurodegenerative diseases. However, these models require accurate constitutive data for brain tissue to produce ...
The association of military blast exposure and brain injury was first appreciated in World War I as commotio cerebri, and later as shell shock. Similar injuries sustained in modern military conflicts are now classified as mild traumatic brain injury (TBI

TBI, traumatic brain injury. experimentation. For instance, moderators and modulators that have been associated with suicidal behavior can be investigated in relationship to endophenotypes in animal models without the risk to human life. Here, we briefly review some of these human biological findings....
The initiation, anatomic pattern, and extent of tau spread in traumatic brain injury (TBI), and the mechanism by which TBI leads to long-term tau pathology, remain controversial. Some studies suggest that moderate to severe TBI is sufficient to promote t
