The brainsex project investigates how traumatic brain injury biomechanics differ between sexes, particularly in elderly women who experience higher rates of injury. By developing sex-specific brain models, the project aims to improve understanding and prediction of injury outcomes from head impacts.
Traumatic brain injury (TBI) is a multi-anatomical-scale mechanical injury affecting 30 million women globally each year. brainsex will focus on the sex specific biomechanics of TBI in the elderly population motivated by the highest reported incidence of TBI in people over 75 years old.
Furthermore, in the elderly population women account for more TBIs than men.
However, women remain underrepresented in TBI research.
Finite element brain models (FEBMs) have played a major role in improving our u…
