How can we detect and prevent brain injuries?

Futurum

Participants wear cutting-edge, flexible sensors which track how their heads move in different situations. Using knowledge of how physics and biology influence the brain, Christian’s team can analyse the output from this computer model to understand which head movements are likely to result in injury.
