Abstract
Traumatic brain injury (TBI), caused by repeated concussive head trauma can induce chronic traumatic encephalopathy (CTE), a neurodegenerative disease featuring behavioral symptoms ranging from cognitive deficits to elevated aggression. In a Drosophila model, we used a high-impact trauma device [Katzenberger et al., 2013, 2015] to induce TBI-like symptoms and to study post-TBI behavioral outcomes. Following TBI, aggression in banged male flies...
