Is it appropriate to share clinically relevant research results with active-duty Special Operations Forces? We explore ethical, legal & operational perspectives, with the goal of empowering Operators who seek information about their brain health. osf.io/preprints/psya…

We are grateful for @NavySEALfnd leadership and support. We hope that our paper in @PNASNews informs future efforts to improve SOF brain health. For details, see: pnas.org/doi/10.1073/pn…. For a summary, see: massgeneral.org/news/press-rel… @MGH_CNTR @MGHMartinos @MGHNeuroSci @MGH_RI

Neuroimaging, blood proteomics, and health data from 30 military personnel show that increased exposure to explosive blasts was associated with structural and functional brain alterations and a decrease in health-related quality of life. In PNAS: ow.ly/bfNA50RpWfO

Our team @MGHNeuroSci is committed to ensuring that the brave men and women who protect our country receive the best possible medical care. Details of the ReBlast study results available at: pnas.org/doi/10.1073/pn… @MGHNeurology @MGHMartinos @MGH_CNTR @MGH_RI @MassGeneralNews

Impact of Repeated Blast Exposure in Active-Duty U.S. Special Operations Forces: pnas.org/doi/10.1073/pn… We thank the 30 SOF participants, who bring the military one step closer to a diagnostic test for repeated blast brain injury. @MGHNeurology @MGHMartinos @MGH_CNTR

Rik, kudos to you! I just read the feature article in "The ASHA Leader" on your innovative approach to treatment of adults with acquired brain injury (ABI).

Reflecting on the many times I have doubted my place in SLT, when doing a PhD, when moving into academia, when writing this book..because I never saw someone that looked like me doing those things. So, this photo is for any minoritised SLTs and students in that place of doubt.

Huge credit to all CATs members, esp Executive Committee members @jytteisaksen @KaterinaHilari @MyzoonAli @ruth_menamin @ErinGodecke @seckin1984 @ClaudiaNeuropsi @rose_mirandaros @LucyDipper @SuzanneBeeke @Nat_Douglas @SpeechShrubs @CarolineJagoe @SarahJWallace + non-tweeps...

1/2 USA-led research team carried out a systematic literature review (including n=8 studies) describing current research on psychological outcomes from music-based tx for PWA, summarizing therapy outcomes, and evaluating research quality. doi.org/10.47513/mmd.v…

American team carried out a review of systematic reviews (SRs) of constraint-induced language therapy (CILT) 6 SRs were included, 3 contributing to a meta-analysis. The original studies contained both SRs of RCTs and of all study designs 🖇️Paper: pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/36668725/

How does the cerebellum contribute to cognition? McDougle, Tsay et al. show that individuals with cerebellar pathology are impaired on cognitive tasks that require continuous manipulation of mental representations, but not simple memory retrieval. bit.ly/3WGg5fz
