The year's @icsniagara International Concussion Summit brought together leading #Concussion experts, coaches, teachers, admin, school board staff & more for learning & networking. Just a few of the many highlights from this 2-day event! @JulieStammPhD @chrispronger #icsniagara
Thank you to @ChrisNowinski1 for your support of our conference. A straightforward and powerful message from Chris's presentation: "Stop hitting kids in the head!" #icsniagara
Thank you @JC1088 for your informative presentation on current challenges in chronic concussion management. We appreciated the practical strategies for school personnel in reducing the risk of prolonged recovery. #icsniagara
The level and knowledge of the presenters at the ICS is out of this world. To see one of these presenters is exciting, let alone all at the same conference. If you’re involved with athletes you should definitely put it on your list, I’ll for sure be back. #icsniagara
So privileged to attend the 10th Annual International Concussion Summit, sponsored by One Last Goal, the foundation honoring UB Sports Law star student Matt Benedict. Ken Dryden and Chris Pronger were amazing speakers. Looking forward to UB's own Dr. John Leddy tomorrow!
Attending the International Concussion Summit is an enlightening experience, offering a wealth of knowledge on concussion prevention, treatment, and awareness. @niagaracatholic @Camillocipriano @icsniagara @chrispronger @KenDryden
An informative talk by Dr. John Leddy on how the examination and treatment of youth with concussion have changed over the past 15 years. We also appreciated learning how return to school, to physical education class, and to sport in youth with concussion have changed as well.
An excellent start to day two of the International Concussion Summit! Thank you to Dr. Ann McKee for an engaging talk that shared updates in CTE. It was interesting to learn how the brain pathology of CTE differs from other neurodegenerative diseases. #icsniagara
Thank you to Dr. Blain Hoshizaki for an informative presentation on how we can work together to protect youth in contact sport from head trauma and the risk of brain injury. #icsniagara
@JulieStammPhD with a great presentation about youth physical activity, AFE to RHI, and risk of long term effects of RHI. #ICSNiagara
An interesting presentation by Dr. Clara Karton on measuring brain trauma in sport and the application of AI. In her talk, Dr. Karton described how using AI will provide tools to sports organizations, coaches, and medical teams to guide the management of head trauma.
Concussion conference in Canada? Of course there will be hockey royalty, Chris kicked it off in style and Ken’s speech was sooo good and eye opening. I’ll quietly say Go Wings lol. #icsniagara
A sincere thank you to Ken Dryden for joining ICS for a third time in our ten years. An insightful and frank talk on where we were a decade ago regarding concussions, and where we are now. A strong message received about next steps required by professional sports leagues.
Great experience at the @icsniagara listening to Chris Pronger #icsniagara
A great talk by keynote speaker, Dr. Robert Cantu entitled, "Reflections on Cantu Concussion Summit and Long-Term Effects of Repetitive Traumatic Brain Injury (RTBI)" #icsniagara
A big thank you to Chris Pronger for sharing his stories and personal experience with concussions. Chris' perspective, as a former pro-athlete, was both engaging and invaluable. #icsniagara
Chris Pronger, NHL Hall of Famer first up today at the 10th annual International Concussion Summit in Niagara Ontario! #ICSNiagara
This year's DSBN International Concussion Summit has started! A warm welcome to all attendees from across 🇨🇦 and 🇺🇸! In our 10th year, we are thankful to our former director, Warren Hoshizaki for his vision in advancing awareness around concussions through this Summit.
