CTE and the Risks of High Contact Sports

Season 3 Episode 23 Published 3 years, 3 months ago
Description

The average lifespan of someone diagnosed with CTE is just 51 years. Promising athletic careers have been cut short, and lasting legacies have been marred by this debilitating neurodegenerative disease. We investigate the effects of CTE and repetitive head trauma, and how contact-heavy sports like football and wrestling are navigating the connection between the two.
