Join us for a conversation with Emily Moore, @concussion.talk who began her PhD in traumatic brain injuries at the University of Adelaide after experiencing a life-changing concussion four years ago while playing soccer.
Emily discusses her research on brain wave changes post-injury, the often-overlooked impacts of such injuries, and the importance of awareness. Additionally, she has also completed a half marathon for the Orange Butterfly Foundation and advocates for women's health and safety in sports as an ambassador for NAVI Women.
