Thank you for inviting Concussion Alliance to present at your public forum!

TBI often causes sleep disturbance, & glymphatic flow increases during sleep. Perhaps impaired glymphatic pathophys underlies post-#TBI symptoms! Can we visualize glymphatic flow in humans? Yes! @Juan_piantino @AANmember #AANAM #AANAM2025 @OHSUDoernbecher @meeryo @rachelrowephx
