HopgoodGanim Lawyers are proud supporters of the Queensland Brain Institute (QBI), and in particular their most recent campaign to raise awareness and fund research on the long-lasting effects of concussion on Australian athletes.
As part of a new research program, QBI along with the Australian Athletes’ Alliance will recruit healthy elite athletes for brain scans and saliva tests, to follow up at regular intervals if they experience concussion, with the overarching aim to establish a biomarker to accurately diagnose concussion.
Their mission is not to change sport, but to use research to better treat and manage those who have been affected by concussion.
HG joins QBI’s social media campaign #nobrainnogame and encourages readers to find out more through the organisations’ website, as well as their new publication, “The Brain” magazine.
