UNC To Establish New TBI Treatment Program With Funding From Gary Sinise

/ At the Matthew Gfeller Center, UNC-Chapel Hill researchers study the causes and effects of Traumatic Brain Injury UNC Chapel Hill has received a $12.5 million gift to start a clinical treatment program for veterans and first responders with traumatic brain injuries. The new program, called THRIVE Transforming Health and Resilience in Veterans builds on the university’s expertise in concussion and head injuries from sports. It will offer access to treatment at sites across the state. The money came from a foundation started by Actor Gary Sinise, a long-time advocate for troops and veterans. Traumatic brain injury or TBI is a signature injury of the wars in Iraq and Afghanistan, in part because improvised bombs were so common. Many troops survived blasts, but shock waves caused a TBI. More than 400,000 veterans have been diagnosed with TBIs since the year 2000.
