The Sarah Jane Brain Foundation, a non-profit organization whose mission is to assist in the research of new developments for children suffering from pediatric traumatic brain injury (PTBI) and the rehabilitation of children, recently announced that two of the nation's leaders in the field of PTBI, Dr. Roberta DePompei and Dr. Ron Savage, have joined The National Advisory Board of The Sarah Jane Brain Foundation.

A goal of The Sarah Jane Brain Foundation is to establish a PTBI Act based off the successful TBI Act, developed for adults suffering from traumatic brain injury and having established a Traumatic Brain Injury Model System throughout the nation. Pediatric Traumatic Brain Injury is the leading cause of death and disability for children under 15 years of age in the United States resulting in over 5,000 deaths and over 17,000 permanent disabilities each year.
