New Vermont Brain Injury Blog on the web  head image

Bob Luce, a Burlington-based attorney and BIA Vermont board member, has started a new online brain injury resource for survivors, caregivers, providers & the commmunity.  His blog can be found at: www.vermontbraininjury.com.

Bob created this resource to help people better understand the impact of brain injury, and the remarkable work being done to improve our ability to diagnose, treat and prevent brain injury, and obtain compensation for brain injuries caused by negligence.

Through this blog, Bob provides links to reliable information on brain injury, monitors peer-reviewed medical literature and public policy developments, and translates this information into jargon-free summaries
