League and GE Announce Prize-Winning Concussion Research
NEW YORK — Six innovative studies on identifying concussions, the severity of brain trauma injuries and speed of the healing process have been named winners of the GE & NFL Head Health Challenge.
Some practical applications from the researchers, who each received a $500,000 award to advance their work, could be seen within the next two years, said Jeff Miller, the NFL senior vice president of the league's Health and Safety Policy.
"It's not too far in the future," Miller told Reuters in an interview.
