Send us a textWelcome back to Headfirst: A Concussion Podcast. Today, we have the privilege of hosting Dr Jason Tabor, an expert in the field of concussion research. Dr Tabor has completed his PhD on biomarkers in concussion and has recently published one of the largest studies to date on plasma biomarkers in adolescents with sports-related concussions. His ground-breaking work has made significant contributions to understanding how biomarkers can possibly aid in the diagnosis and management of concussions in young athletes, laying the foundations of future research. In addition to his extensive journal publications on mild traumatic brain injury and concussions, Dr Tabor was also awarded the prestigious 2024 NIH Outstanding Scholar in Neuroscience Program award for his innovative research. In this episode, Dr. Tabor shares insights into his research, the role of biomarkers in concussion detection, and his work as part of the panel to synthesize blood biomarkers for the Concussion in Sports Group.  -       Introduction About Dr Jason Tabor (1:00)-       Rodent Models, Concussion and Anabolic Steroids (4:45)-       What is a Concussion?
