Preclinical and clinical exploration of mechanisms as well as pathophysiology and management of physiological and clinical manifestations of all forms of brain injury, including traumatic, vascular, anoxic, and others. This core’s focus is on acute changes and development of further interventions to better optimize neuroprotection and minimize extent of injury.
