Link between concussion in sport & CTE explained by Professor Michael Buckland, Sportzfan Radio #482
Special guest, Professor Michael Buckland, Head of Neuropathology at Royal Prince Alfred Hospital and the founder and Director of the Australian Sports Brain Bank talks about the effects of concussion on the brain and the link to CTE (chronic traumatic encephalopathy).
