TBI Model Systems researchers have been critical in the planning of and many will present at the North American Brain Injury Society (NABIS) 15th Annual Conference (ABI2020). The event will be held February 26-29 in New Orleans, LA. For more information about the conference, view the conference program here.
The following TBI Model System researchers assisted in planning ABI2020:
- Alan Weinstraub, MD, Medical Director for the Rocky Mountain Regional Brain Injury System and Medical Director of the Brain Injury Program at Craig Hospital, will serve as conference chair for the North American Brain Injury Society (NABIS) 15th Annual Conference (ABI2020). With the theme ‘Best Practices in Brain Injury Medicine and Neurorehabilitation: Improving Outcomes Through Interdisciplinary Collaboration,’ this conference will be the premier educational event for multidisciplinary medical professionals involved in brain injury in North America in 2020. Learn more about this honor here.
- TBI Model System researchers serve on the Educational Planning Committee for the North American Brain Injury Society (NABIS) 15th Annual Conference (ABI2020). Committee members are from the following currently-funded SCI Model System centers: Indiana University School of Medicine / Rehabilitation Hospital of Indiana TBI (Flora Hammond, MD; and Dawn Neumann, PhD), Spaulding-Harvard Traumatic Brain Injury Model System (Joseph Giacino, PhD; and Ross Zafonte, DO), JFK Johnson Rehabilitation Institute Traumatic Brain Injury Model System (Brian Greenwald, MD), and the Department of Veteran Affairs-funded Tampa Polytrauma Rehabilitation Center (Risa Nakase-Richardson, PhD, FACRM). Learn more about this committee here.
