Changes in mouse cognition and hippocampal gene expression observed in a mild physical- and blast-traumatic brain injury

Warfare has long been associated with traumatic brain injury (TBI) in militarized zones. Common forms of TBI can be caused by a physical insult to the head–brain or by the effects of a high velocity blast shock wave generated by the detonation of an explosive device.
