Former Center Director Douglas Wiebe and Trainees Abigail Bretzin and Bernadette D’Alonzo, along with the Ivy League–Big Ten Epidemiology of Concussion Study Investigators, examined the progression of collegiate student athletes through five stages of a return-to-activity protocol following sport-related concussion (SRC).
