Abstract
There is compelling evidence that traumatic brain injury (TBI) can trigger neurodegeneration, and that this is a major determinant of long-term outcome (Smithet al., 2013). A single significant injury such as a road traffic accident or exposure to a bomb blast can predispose an individual to Alzheimer's disease (AD), and here Gilbert and colleagues show for the first time that a history of TBI also alters the progression the disease.
