Women's Issues in Brain Injury

I was very excited to receive the most current issue of the Brain Injury Professional, published by the North America Brain Injury Society (NABIS). This issue is devoted to Women's Issues in Brain Injury.

This issue includes the following topics:

1. Women Care Givers: The Long-Term Effects on Health and Well Being

2. The Effects of Chemotherapy on Cognition in Breast Cancer Survivors: Implications for Neurorehabilitation

3. My Life After the Injury: A Women's Story written by Marvel Vena

4. Women and Sexuality Post-TBI

5. What Does Menopause Have To Do With Traumatic Brain Injury? A Case for Progesterone

6. Health Concerns of Women With Brain Injury

7. Participatory Action Research in Women Living With the Consequences of Brain Injury

Congratulations goes out to Elisabeth Sherwin, Ph.D. who served as this issue's guest editor. Hopefully Dr. Sherwin's goal of starting the ball rolling, that is, getting people to speak about women's issues in traumatic brain injury will be fulfilled. Dr. Sherwin certainly has got the ball rolling, and we all look forward to the success of this endeavor.
