Advancements in the Diagnosis and Management of Traumatic Brain Injuries

Dear Colleagues,

This Special Issue invites papers that address traumatic brain injuries in humans, related to civilian, military or sports contexts, including issues surrounding their diagnosis, treatment, neuropathological substrates, neuropsychological manifestations, and potential long-term effects. We will consider submissions of cross-sectional survey studies, large-scale epidemiological studies, post mortem case series, neuropsychological analyses, analyses of therapeutic intervention and rehabilitation, studies on fluid and imaging biomarkers, as well as narrative reviews and studies with negative data.

Prof. Dr. Rudolph J. Castellani
Guest Editor
