Ten years ago, the Department of Defense (now Department of War) and the NCAA launched a bold experiment in partnership: the Concussion Assessment, Research and Education program, better known as the NCAA-DOD Grand Alliance CARE Consortium. The idea was simple but powerful — by combining the experiences of athletes and service members, researchers could better understand traumatic brain injury and concussion, improving safety and care both on the playing field and in the line of duty. In recent years, the partnership expanded through the Service Academy Longitudinal mTBI Outcomes Study following cadets and midshipmen across their academic and military training to identify how brain injuries affect long-term readiness, performance, and health.
