The 9th Annual Texas Brain and Spine Institute Neuroscience Symposium will showcase nationally recognized efforts toward improvements in the prevention, identification, research, care and treatment of mild traumatic brain injury or concussions. The Symposium will be held on Tuesday, September 22, 2015 at the Annenberg Conference Center located at the George Bush Presidential Library at Texas A&M University.
Jeffrey T. Barth, Ph.D., ABPP-Cn will be presenting to the scientific community beginning at 4:00 p.m. Dr. Barth is best known for his pioneering work with the Sports as a Laboratory Assessment Model (SLAM) for brief baseline and post-injury neurocognitive evaluation of athletes. This method of pre and post-concussion assessment has become the foundation for mild TBI evaluation and management for athlete safety and return-to-play decision-making policies across the US.
Subsequently, Daryl "Moose" Johnston, former NFL/Dallas Cowboys Fullback and FOX Sports Analyst, will be addressing ongoing efforts toward Concussion Awareness in sports-related activities. The twelve-year NFL veteran was one of the first players to participate in a study looking at the long-term effects of concussions. A two-time Pro Bowler, Johnston believes in a proactive approach to brain health.
