traumatic brain injury

5A neuroplasticity sprouting and rerouting are used during adaptive plasticity in response to a traumatic brain injury but also active during the recovery from non traumatic brain injuries

5B acquired brain injuries the effect traumatic and non traumatic brain injuries have on functioning can be used to understand the impact of CTE on those living with it as CTE is a traumatic brain injury

4C the cerebral cortex although CTE is widespread, neurofibrillary tangles can be found to accumulate in the frontal lobe, therefore as damage occurs to neurons in the area, high order mental processes are impaired but neural degeneration is widespread

5C research on neurological disorders CTE as a condition is an example of contemporary research that helps to diagnose and treat the disorder
