Resources For NFL Health Study - Nubian Tigers Podcast

We recently aired two episodes of our discussion with Dr. Taylor and Dr. Zafonte on the Harvard Study of former NFL players. As is our custom we are providing Resources For NFL Health Study. The full project name is Football Players Health Study at Harvard University. The team published numerous studies, including ones on the long term effects of concussions. We did not cover the concussion issue in our podcasts but you can read about them at the study’s website.
