What is the Canadian Sports Concussion Project?

Our Concussion Project is a Canadian study based out of the Krembil Neuroscience Centre at Toronto Western Hospital that is focused on examining the possible correlation between repeated concussions and late deterioration of brain function. This problem is suspected to be especially frequent after repeated concussion in sports, but may also occur after concussions in other activities including motor vehicle crashes, industrial injuries or falls.
