About
Established at the University of Arkansas in 2014, the Office for Sport Concussion Research works to improve the standard of care for athletes with sport-related concussion through education, community outreach, and clinical research. Directed by R.J. Elbin, Ph.D., the office runs field-based programs with Northwest Arkansas high schools and youth sports leagues and partners with groups such as the Arkansas Activities Association, UAMS, and Arkansas Children's. It also maintains a research collaboration with the Inova Sports Medicine Concussion Program, so its emphasis is on research and outreach for athletes rather than direct clinical treatment.
