Brief Summary:
The primary objective of The Brain Injury Neurorehabilitation Project is a systematic effort to generate cutting edge research in brain injury and cognitive rehabilitation that will advance neurorehabilitation research It will establish the first surveillance system and implement multimodal data to characterize the long-term effects of moderate to severe TBI Additionally the project will implement innovative rehabilitation methodologies namely cognitive training social communication deficits and non-invasive brain stimulation with tDCS to determine which modality can improve neurocognitive and psychosocial performance in adult ABI Two funded projects BRAIN-REHAB ACESO are incorporated in this project
Detailed Description:
Acquired Brain Injury resulting from a TBI or CVA is a primary cause of chronic disability and unemployment resulting in significant health societal and financial burden The Brain Injury Neurorehabilitation Project is part of a systematic effort to study ABI in Cyprus It is an umbrella project designed to generate cutting edge research in brain injury and cognitive rehabilitation that will advance neurorehabilitation research Patients with TBI and strokes are often faced with cognitive and behavioral difficulties that interfere with their ability to return to productive living thus contributing to unemployment social isolation and low quality of life for decades post injury The scientific objectives will address the aforementioned challenge First the project will establish the first TBI surveillance system in Cyprus and implement epidemiologically-principled and systematic data collection from large cohorts across the severity continuum It will integrate neuropsychological lifestyle injury imaging genetic and biological data using state of the art computational methods and quantitatively assess the exact contribution of critical variables to brain injury recovery Second the project will determine the effectiveness of a theory-driven neurocognitive therapy program the Categorization Program CP in combination with a social-communication training during the chronic phase of the recovery process It is hypothesized that the combination of remedial cognitive and social-communication training will yield improvement in functioning with sustainable long term effects Additionally the project will implement non-invasive brain stimulation NIBS in combination with the social-communication intervention to determine the utility of NIBS and specifically tDCS in improving cognitive performance and psychosocial functioning Through innovative research and development of new methods and technologies the project will advance the State-of-the-Art by producing cutting edge research with international impact while contributing to the development of personalized medicine and improvement of rehabilitation outcomes and reduction of disability in Cyprus
