Tator C, Scott O, Elkin B, Prentice E, Muhammad U, Khodadadi M, et al.
J Neurotrauma . 2024 Nov; PMID: 39605201
At the Canadian Concussion Centre, we treated 136 patients from 2000 to 2020 who sustained concussion plus persisting concussion symptoms (C+PCS) as motor vehicle occupants involved in motor vehicle crashes...

Basilio A, Zeng D, Pichay L, Maas S, Sundaresh S, Finan J, et al.
Ann Biomed Eng . 2023 Nov; 52(3):600-610. PMID: 37993751
This study aims to facilitate intracranial simulation of traumatic events by determining the mechanical properties of different anatomical structures of the brain. Our experimental indentation paradigm used fresh, post-operative human...

Chimich D, Al-Salehi L, Elkin B, Siegmund G
Front Public Health . 2022 Sep; 10:915140. PMID: 36111191
Walkway tribometers are used to measure available friction for evaluating walkway safety and pedestrian slip risk. Numerous variables can affect tribometer measurements, including the type and distribution of contaminants on...

Sundaresh S, Finan J, Elkin B, Basilio A, McKhann G, Morrison 3rd B
Ann Biomed Eng . 2022 Jan; 50(11):1452-1460. PMID: 35034227
This study characterizes the mechanical properties of human brain tissue resected during the course of surgery under multistep indentation loading up to 30% strain. The experimental characterization using fresh, post-operative,...

Siegmund G, Blanchette M, Brault J, Chimich D, Elkin B
Ergonomics . 2020 Jul; 64(3):396-409. PMID: 32672502
Properly estimating and reporting the uncertainty of walkway surface friction is key to ensuring pedestrian safety. Here we quantified the amount and sources of uncertainty in friction measurements by having...

Elkin B, Gabler L, Panzer M, Siegmund G
Clin Biomech (Bristol) . 2018 Apr; 64:49-57. PMID: 29625747
Background: On-field football helmet impacts over a large range of severities have caused concussions in some players but not in other players. One possible explanation for this variability is the...

Finan J, Sundaresh S, Elkin B, McKhann 2nd G, Morrison 3rd B
Acta Biomater . 2017 Mar; 55:333-339. PMID: 28351681
Statement Of Significance: We present the first mechanical characterization of fresh, post-operative human brain tissue using an indentation loading mode. Indentation generates highly localized data, allowing structure-specific mechanical properties to...

Elkin B, Elliott J, Siegmund G
J Orthop Sports Phys Ther . 2016 Oct; 46(10):874-885. PMID: 27690834
Study Design Finite element modeling of experimental data. Background The clinical presentations of whiplash injury and concussion have considerable overlap. Both diagnoses are generally based on presenting signs and symptoms,...

Lamprecht M, Elkin B, Kesavabhotla K, Crary J, Hammers J, Huh J, et al.
J Neurotrauma . 2016 Feb; 34(1):97-108. PMID: 26919808
The utility of in vitro models of traumatic brain injury (TBI) depends on their ability to recapitulate the in vivo TBI cascade. In this study, we used a genome-wide approach...

J Biomech Eng . 2013 Sep; 135(11):114507. PMID: 24026193
This technical brief serves as an update to our previous work characterizing the region-dependence of viscoelastic mechanical properties of the P17 and adult rat brain in the coronal plane (Elkin...
