In 2008, the National Academy of Neuropsychology presented its first ever Sports Concussion Symposium in New York City preceding the organization’s annual conference. The summit featured an exciting line up of leading experts who discussed sports-related concussion from a variety of perspectives. The workshops presented cutting-edge research and the very latest in clinical management for this common sports-related brain injury.
Over 200 neuropsychologists and sports medicine professionals attended the Sports Concussion Symposium and enjoyed the lineup of speakers and panel of former professional athletes.
Members of the sports media also attended the event, due to the timely nature of the topic. ESPN Magazine ran a story on NAN’s Sports Concussion Symposium, focusing on sports concussions in hockey. See the article here:
