Primary Blast Traumatic Brain Injury in the Rat: Relating Diffusion Tensor Imaging and Behavior [PDF]
The incidence of traumatic brain injury (TBI) among military personnel is at its highest point in U.S. history. Experimental animal models of blast have provided a wealth of insight into blast injury.

One-hundred years (and counting) of blast-associated traumatic brain injury [PDF]
Blast-associated traumatic brain injury (TBI) has become one of the signature issues of modern warfare and is increasingly a concern in the civilian population due to a rise in terrorist attacks.

Blast Exposure and Risk of Recurrent Occupational Overpressure Exposure Predict Deployment TBIs [PDF]
Abstract Introduction Traumatic brain injury (TBI) has been the leading cause of morbidity and mortality in recent military conflicts and deployment-related TBIs are most commonly caused by blast. However, knowledge of risk factors that increase susceptibility to TBI following an acute, high-level ...

BLAST Autonomous Daytime Star Cameras [PDF]
We have developed two redundant daytime star cameras to provide the fine pointing solution for the balloon-borne submillimeter telescope, BLAST. The cameras are capable of providing a reconstructed pointing solution with an absolute accuracy < 5 ...

Blast Exposure Leads to Accelerated Cellular Senescence in the Rat Brain
Blast-induced traumatic brain injury (bTBI) is one of the major causes of persistent disabilities in Service Members, and a history of bTBI has been identified as a primary risk factor for developing age-associated neurodegenerative diseases.

Simulations of Porcine Eye Exposure to Primary Blast Insult [PDF]
A computational model of the porcine eye was developed to simulate primary blast exposure. This model facilitates understanding of blast-induced injury mechanisms.
