There is a movement in the Brain Injury community to change the popular conceptualization of brain injuries. Rather than a brain injury being viewed as a one-time event, this movement puts forth the assertion that it should be understood as a chronic disease.

It was authored by the Medical Director of the Moody Neurorehabilitation Institute, Dr. Brent Masel.
