The physical and cognitive symptoms of sport-related concussions are widely spoken about, but less is known about the psychosocial symptoms that athletes experience post-concussion, which today’s guest believes are equally important. Today, you’ll hear from Dr. Jeff Caron, an assistant professor at the University of Montréal. His research focuses on better understanding the psychosocial aspects of sport-related concussions and seeks to answer two main questions: how can we most effectively share concussion information with members of the sports community? And which psychosocial strategies can assist athletes as they return to sport, school, and daily life? 

In this episode, Dr. Caron offers some insight into the psychosocial symptoms of sport-related concussions, including feelings of isolation and fear, and we discuss how best to support athletes in their recovery, whether that means returning to sport or making a career transition. Tune in today to learn more!
