<p>By Lt. Jacob Norris<br><br>Editors Note: Lt. Jacob Norris, research psychologist, is leading a study on mild traumatic brain injury at the Naval Medical Research Center (NMRC). NMRC is focused on understanding traumatic brain injury on all levels and time points; from the basic physiology to the potential impact traumatic brain injury (TBI) may have on service member quality of life or the family environment.<br><br>My interest in this field of research began during my deployments to Afghanistan as part of the Joint Combat Casualty Research Team. I was able to see the profound impact that good medical research can have on patient care. During the time I spent there, I was able to see how clinicians tasked with mild TBI (mTBI) care wanted to know more about how they could improve what they were doing.<br></p>
