  ## Research Overview

Of the many ongoing clinical research projects at Boston University, our Sports Neurology division is most involved with the DIAGNOSE CTE and HOPE studies which evaluate the causes and risks for memory and behavioral symptoms after repetitive head injuries. We also work with the Boston University Sports Medicine and Pediatric Neurology departments to identify the optimal management of concussion and post-concussion syndromes.
