Multiple news outlets, including聽,听,听, and others reported on a new study by NYITCOM Assistant Professor聽, which finds that helmet design can impact concussion severity. Using 3-D computer models, the research team, which included NYITCOM students, simulated brain-skull interaction during a low-speed, head-on collision. The simulations accounted聽for the enhanced features found in many of today’s helmets (a hard exterior with soft inner padding), as well as the presence of cerebrospinal fluid, which cushions the brain and protects it from hitting the skull. The team’s findings revealed that conventional helmet designs do聽little to limit聽concussion聽severity.
