Lawrence Livermore researchers recently published a study about how shock waves will cause damage the membrane proteins for a patient suffering from brain injury. These shock wave TBIs have become common with improvised explosive devices that we have seen used in Iraq and Afghanistan. Experts estimate that around 230,000 military veterans have suffered from TBI between 2001 to 2014. The problem is that we do not deeply understand how this takes place. Researchers are not sure how exposure to…
