The National Institute of Neurological Disorders and Stroke (NINDS) awarded a $444,125 Project Grant (CFDA 93.853 - Extramural Research Programs in the Neurosciences and Neurological Disorders) to the University of Virginia (UVA) to conduct research on the relationship between penetrating brain injury, toxic metal exposure, and the development of post-traumatic epilepsy. The study aims to determine whether the duration of exposure to retained metal fragments, such as copper and lead, in penetrating brain injury impacts the severity of brain damage and the likelihood of developing epilepsy. UVA will create a rat model of penetrating brain injury, implant the animals with different metal fragments, and evaluate the resulting neuropathology and epilepsy incidence following varying exposure durations. The findings from this project are expected to have a significant impact on clinical care by informing strategies to mitigate the risks of epilepsy and long-term functional decline in survivors of penetrating brain injuries.
