Victim-survivors of Intimate Partner Violence often have worse brain injuries than people who've had a sporting injury, writes @Robynriley08 in today's @theheraldsun.

Congratulations to Dr @c_padgett who has been awarded a 2024 #ChurchillFellowship.
The award will enable her to travel to the US, Canada and the UK to investigate the latest research on the impact of brain injury from intimate partner violence: utas.au/g2

New papers from lab on IPV #TBI.
@MujunSun developed a new model to study how a non-fatal strangulation can exacerbate the effects of concussion. @GeorgiaSymons led the first study into blood biomarkers and symptoms acutely after IPV TBI. @BrainBehavImm

“While we don’t have exact statistics around the prevalence of brain injury in victim-survivors compared to what we have in sports – in part due to a lack of awareness of these injuries in this setting, or victim-survivors not receiving medical attention – the estimates of brain injury in IPV likely far outnumber those in sports,”
