Living and Dying with Chronic Traumatic Encephalopathy among National Football League players.

The principal project concerns the experiences of living and dying with Chronic Traumatic Encephelopathy (CTE) among NFL players. This involves interviewing family members of deceased players. This project is aimed for the Journal of American Medicine (Association), impact factor 51. It is envisioned that this paper will serve as the backbone of a REF 2027 submission. It involves four members of the department and will thus provide a nice, cohesive, strategy concerning the next REF and research focus.

This is a multidisciplinary and collaborative project exploring the impact of CTE and TBI on sportspeople and their loved ones.
