Michael Leavitt will explore the repeated failings at the highest level of sport managing concussion. He will also discuss the nuance regarding youth concussion. In addition, we can explore sub concussive impacts, why they are important to understand, what the current research shows and where the direction of travel is.About the speaker: Michael currently serves as the Programme Leader for Physiotherapy and a Lecturer at Edinburgh Napier University. He has over 15 years of experience in neurotrauma rehabilitation and advanced accreditation in clinical instruction/education. In addition, Michael is a clinical expert in Neuro Trauma(Traumatic Brain Injury, concussion, SCI, CVA, multilevel trauma, complex amputation, neuro degenerative disease) as a physiotherapist, and was previously employed by Northwestern Medicine (Chicago). His research interests include concussion, sub concussive impacts, and complex gait training for neurologic conditions. He loves living in Scotland with his wife, who is also a specialised physio academic; 3 young boys, and pets.Attendance:This event is free, and no ticket is required, however please note that we operate on a first come first served basis. It's relatively rare that we fill up the function room, but please be aware that if things are looking busy, the earlier you get there the less chance there is of not getting in. Although the event is free, we will be asking for donations at the end of the talk. Participants are under no obligation whatsoever to donate, however please rest assured that the money we collect doesn't end up in anyone's pocket - it is used to fund our overhead costs, and travel/accommodation for our speakers who come from further afield.Accessibility:The Admiral Woods Bar now has a functioning lift which can take wheelchair users (or others who are unable to manage stairs) down to the function room. There is also a disabled toilet in the function room area.
