Thank you @nytimes for celebrating Bruce McEwen’s seminal discoveries.

Feeling awful today about the death of one of my postdoctoral mentors Bruce McEwen. The world was a far better place with him in it. He was one of the kindest most generous people I've ever known, along with being a groundbreaking scientist.

The newly minted Bloss lab @jacksonlab is hiring postdocs for exciting positions looking at the connectivity and plasticity of neural circuits in relation to behavior. Come enjoy life and science in Bar Harbor!

[The Concussion Blog @concussionblog]

You want to know why we’re having trouble with concussions today as opposed to the past? Well let me get out on a limb and give you an example; would you go and run, cut and jump within hours of tearing an ACL or spraining an ankle?

[Weillab @Weillab1]

Important work from the CARE consortium. Actual biomechanics of impact do little to predict concussion but previous exposure to head impact is critically important. https://t.co/E45kdOoqlE #concussion

Tomorrow is #WorldStrokeDay. Stroke is the fifth-leading cause of death in the U.S. and a leading cause of disability. Stop by the Brain and Spine Hospital Lobby between 10a and 2p for free screenings to see if you're at risk. https://t.co/PhNJh4aE6n #KnowYourRisk @OSUBrainHealth

[CDC Injury Center @CDCInjury]

Traumatic brain injury is a major cause of death in the US for all life stages. But the rates, leading causes, and risk factors differ by age. Learn more about #TBIs: https://t.co/DT8JJQ1PJL
