Concussion in Sport: If in doubt, sit them out!

Medico-Legal Society of Queensland Season 1 Episode 1

 Have we underestimated the long-term effects of head trauma in sport? Can clubs be trusted to supervise their own players? Would a sports data base have wider benefits for medicine? A recent Senate Report has delved into the concerning links between contact sport and cognitive deficits. 

Dr Curtis Gray, psychiatrist, will explore these issues and more with an elite panel - Ben Ikin, Queensland Rugby League CEO and former Queensland and Australian representative rugby league player, Juanita Maiden, prominent Sports Lawyer, and Professor Terry Coyne OAM, distinguished Neurosurgeon.
