brain organoid platform mild blast TBI research
Brain Organoid Platform Aims to Decode Mild Blast Traumatic Brain Injury in Military personnel Traumatic Brain Injury: A Persistent Challenge for Military personnel Traumatic brain injuries have remained a persistent issue among military personnel, with the Department of Defence reporting close to 516.000 cases globally between 2000 and 2024. Johns Hopkins Launches POSITRONIC to Study mbTBI A research team from Johns Hopkins Applied Physics Laboratory (APL) in Laurel, Maryland, together with the Johns Hopkins Bloomberg School of Public Health, is developing a next-generation brain-organoid platform to tackle this challenge. Their study — Platform to Optimally Study Injury and TRauma On Neural Integrity and Circuitry (POSITRONIC), published in Frontiers in Bioengineering and Biotechnology — outlines the core principles of platforms designed for investigating low-level blast exposure. Understanding Low-Level Blast Exposure "The cumulative impact of low-level blast exposure remain...
