Rodent Traumatic Brain Injury As A Model For Human Traumatic Axonal Damage And Neurodegeneration, Nils Henninger
Rodent Traumatic Brain Injury As A Model For Human Traumatic Axonal Damage And Neurodegeneration, Nils Henninger
Nils Henninger
Traumatic brain injury (TBI) is inherently heterogeneous with a complex underlying pathophysiology. Over the past decades many attempts have been undertaken to develop novel and innovative ways to mimic human aspects of TBI in rodents. This presentation will provide a brief overview of translationally relevant rodent TBI models with special emphasis on mild-to-moderate injuries and associated pathology.

This presentation offers background information on traumatic brain injury (TBI), a public health problem which affects approximately 1.7 million Americans each year. The presentation is part of a mini-symposium highlighting the interdisciplinary and translational nature of TBI research at the University of Massachusetts Medical School.
