In secondary analyses of @CareConsortium data, our findings suggest that collegiate #soccer players without #concussion do not exhibit changes in observable function and symptoms across multiple seasons. @osuhrs @OhioStateCBI #CISG2022

[Hendrik Reimann @jhreimann]

Exciting news, our very own @AshwiniSansare from @UDelawarePT received a PODS II award to continue our research on control of balance in Cerebral Palsy. Just after giving a great presentation of first results from that project at #ISPGR2022. Time to celebrate some more!

[William B. Barr @WB_BARR]

Many #concusson patients are not adequately evaluated for vestibular disorders until long after the injury. There are many possible causes & many patients can be symptomatic due to a combination of underlying disorders. https://t.co/Hc3j9ER6y8

@JaneClark_UMD @ConversationUS Apparently falling is not a problem in the squirrel population. 🐿

[Ardian Jusufi @ArdianJ_Lab]

What does the famous squirrel parkour in @MarkRober's backyard tell us about biology and robotics? To find out, watch the full video https://t.co/ccZpxsZAYy and check out our new paper on 'Righting of Squirrels in Unexpected Falls' in @ICB_journal! @MPI_IS https://t.co/yFxLnSzYeM

@JaneClark_UMD @ConversationUS If you like that, wait til you see NASA/Apple engineer Mark Rober’s squirrel obstacle course.

Some squirrels stole my bird seed so I spent a year plotting my revenge.

🚨In a new piece, I lay out and explore 3 principles that now define the pandemic.

1) The vaccines are still beating the variants.
2) The variants are pummelling unvaccinated people.
3) The longer 2 continues, the less likely 1 will hold.
