Since then she has continued her research in this area and now is also looking at the role of neck dysfunction in those with concussion due to concomitant whiplash-type injury.

She has published over 80 papers in peer-reviewed journals and has contributed to several book chapters and is one of the authors of a recent book entitled: Management of neck pain disorders: an evidenced-based approach.

Dr. Treleaven works part-time as a physiotherapist in a private practice assessing and treating patients such as those with, whiplash, cervicogenic dizziness and post-concussion syndrome and been involved as a clinician on several RCTs in whiplash.

For almost 20 years, she has studied the communication practices of clinical teams, in order to support evidence-based educational initiatives to improve teamwork. In recent years, Lorelei has been using her research on teamwork to shift the discourse of ‘competence’ in medical education, so that we are paying attention to not only individual competence but also collective competence. In 2014, Dr. Lingard was awarded the prestigious appointment of Fellow of the Canadian Academy of Health Sciences, in recognition of the impact of her work on Canadian healthcare.

The Colorado Department of Education adopted the BrainSTEPS model in 2016. For the past decade, Brenda has focused on brain injury educational program development, implementation, consultation, and training for the approximately 300 educational consultants serving on 30 BrainSTEPS educational teams across the state. She received her Master’s Degree in the educational aspects of pediatric traumatic brain injury from the George Washington University, where she now serves as an adjunct professor in the Graduate School of Education and Human Development.

She is currently finishing a doctoral program at Johns Hopkins University focusing on Educational Leadership specializing in Mind, Brain, and Teaching. Brenda is a Certified Brain Injury Specialist and serves on three national brain injury advisory boards.

She helped create and is actively involved with the National Collaborative on Children’s Brain Injury (NCCBI).

Brenda is published focusing on pediatric brain injury topics in education including building state infrastructure to support students, school staff training, and educational-legal safeguards. She also reviews manuscripts for peer review journals.

Brenda regularly presents at the state, national and international levels, and has received multiple state/national awards for her work in brain injury. Currently, she serves as an expert external reviewer for the Centers for Disease Control (CDC) Report to Congress on Management of Traumatic Brain Injury in Children and has also co-authored a CDC document on return to school. She was chosen as an expert concussion presenter for the Obama appointed Institute of Medicine/National Research Council Committee. Spearheading development and creation of PA’s Return to Learn Concussion Management Team Model, she has trained over 1,300+ school-based teams in PA, and the program was featured in the Wall Street Journal.

She created a website with a colleague focused on empowering educators: www.getschooledonconcussions.com, and has been charged with co-leading the First National Concussion Return to Learn Consensus for NCCBI. Most importantly, Brenda has a brother who sustained a severe traumatic brain injury while they were teenagers, which is where her passion for helping families and students began.
