This week Topher and Jeff talk with Eric Walsky & Mathieu Falbriard from Bearmind Tech. As former players significantly impacted by concussions, Walsky and Falbriard founded Bearmind Tech to help with concussion detection and improving brain injury management. So many concussions either go undetected entirely, or receive delayed treatment. Bearmind’s monitoring device was designed to change that.

In this episode we talk about:

— How 70% of concussions are diagnosed after games, meaning that most players continue playing, not realizing they are injured

— How we rush too quickly into body contact with our current development model

— How playing multiple sports creates critical thinking skills

— Best practices for concussion treatment

— The loneliness in concussions

AND SO MUCH MORE!
