Help us with our concussion research
We are currently running a study looking at whether we can use a simple blood test to detect concussion and track recovery. To do this we need both people who have had a recent concussion and those who have not (controls). This will enable us to see what the levels of different brain proteins are in the blood of uninjured people by ethnicity so we can then compare this to people who have been concussed over time.
