Research Focus
Dr. Emily Larsen Dennis's research lab focuses on improving the understanding and treatment of traumatic brain injuries (TBI) in children and adolescents. They are developing a comprehensive toolbox that addresses current limitations in neuroimaging analysis for pediatric populations, specifically tailored to the unique challenges presented by younger patients. This innovative approach aims to establish personalized profiles of pathology to better identify factors related to recovery and long-term outcomes for TBI patients.
