It\u2019s a really impactful and important thing to do for research; and I think every veteran should at least consider it.<\/p>\n<p>Just to be clear, for this effort to be successful in the long run, we will also need to conduct research on brain specimens that have not been subjected to trauma &#8211; to act as a control group for the research.

It\u2019s critically important that we learn what is unique about the brain trauma that many veterans are exposed to during military service. Through Project Enlist, we will mobilize the military community to support this research, and I hope it accelerates efforts to improve the long-term health and well-being of not only our veterans, but of Americans in general.<\/p>\n<article class=\"media media--type-image media--view-mode-default\" data-align=\"center\">\n<div class=\"field field--name-field-media-image field--type-image field--label-visually_hidden\">\n<div class=\"field__label visually-hidden\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-13008\" src=\"https:\/\/concussionandcte.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/08\/Matt-Collier-Re-Enlisting.jpg.webp\" alt=\"\" width=\"800\" height=\"460\" srcset=\"https:\/\/concussionandcte.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/08\/Matt-Collier-Re-Enlisting.jpg.webp 800w, https:\/\/concussionandcte.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/08\/Matt-Collier-Re-Enlisting.jpg-300x173.webp 300w, https:\/\/concussionandcte.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/08\/Matt-Collier-Re-Enlisting.jpg-768x442.webp 768w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 800px) 100vw, 800px\" \/><\/div>\n<div>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><strong>The VA is a collaborator with Boston University and the Concussion Legacy Foundation on the VA-BU-CLF Brain Bank. What did you learn about the VA&#8217;s research capabilities while you were there, and how did you eventually get involved with the Concussion Legacy Foundation?<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>First of all, people know very little about the monumental research that is done at the VA, and it\u2019s not just for veterans. The VA has conducted major pioneering heart studies, performed the first liver transplant, developed the nicotine patch, and the list of discoveries and major breakthroughs in healthcare go on and on \u2013 in fact, doctors working for the VA have received several Nobel prizes, and numerous Lasker awards. Ironically, major innovation and game-changing research are not what the VA is known for, but the VA and its brilliant researchers demonstrate these unique and significantly impactful qualities every day.<\/p>\n<p>I got involved with CLF a few years ago while serving the VA under then Secretary Bob McDonald. I became intensely interested in brain science because so many veterans suffer from brain injuries and from PTSD. We thought it was critically important to explore, and better understand, why these phenomena were happening at higher rates in the military. So one of the things we (the VA) did was to start an event called \u201cBrain Trust.\u201d We gathered the best and brightest from all over the country in brain research, and brought them all together. We wanted to create an environment conducive to partnerships and creative thinking. During this time, Bob Costas introduced me to Chris Nowinski. \u00a0Of course Chris and the Concussion Legacy Foundation really stepped up to the plate for Brain Trust. I was so impressed by Chris, his team, and the work CLF has done, that I eventually worked with Chris to come on to CLF as an informal advisor. Ultimately, Chris and the board asked me to join in a more official capacity as a full-fledged Board member. I\u2019m extremely honored to be part of the CLF team.<\/p>\n<p><strong>What do you hope to accomplish as a member of CLF\u2019s Board of Directors?<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>First and foremost, my focus will be on improving the lives and long-term health and well-being of veterans. I hope my experience and connections in the military and veteran community will help push research forward through programs like Project Enlist, and help enhance the work CLF is already doing for veterans and their families.<\/p>\n<p class='content-img-wrap'><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-13013\" src=\"https:\/\/concussionandcte.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/08\/Matt-Collier-West-Point-Hockey1.jpg.webp\" alt=\"\" width=\"450\" height=\"800\" srcset=\"https:\/\/concussionandcte.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/08\/Matt-Collier-West-Point-Hockey1.jpg.webp 450w, https:\/\/concussionandcte.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/08\/Matt-Collier-West-Point-Hockey1.jpg-169x300.webp 169w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 450px) 100vw, 450px\" \/><\/p>\n<p><strong>The awareness of concussions and CTE right now is probably higher than it has ever been. Did you ever think about all those hits adding up while you were playing hockey for West Point or during your military service?<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>When you\u2019re young, of course, you think that you\u2019re invincible. I never really thought of the hits to my head as a boy or as a young man, but I think about it now &#8211; much more frequently. And the idea of invincibility, which is a common theme by the way, as our brain donor families talk about their loved ones \u2013 many of whom were professional athletes &#8211; and who ultimately suffered the consequences of CTE. This feeling of youthful invincibility is exactly why we need to raise awareness with young men and women, as well as their families \u2013 before CTE can take hold as a result of repeated hits to the head.<\/p>\n<p class='content-img-wrap'><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-13018\" src=\"https:\/\/concussionandcte.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/08\/Matt-Collier-Army-Hockey.jpg.webp\" alt=\"\" width=\"800\" height=\"450\" srcset=\"https:\/\/concussionandcte.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/08\/Matt-Collier-Army-Hockey.jpg.webp 800w, https:\/\/concussionandcte.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/08\/Matt-Collier-Army-Hockey.jpg-300x169.webp 300w, https:\/\/concussionandcte.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/08\/Matt-Collier-Army-Hockey.jpg-768x432.webp 768w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 800px) 100vw, 800px\" \/><\/p>\n<p>And as you translate this to military service, and the greater vulnerability to our military men and women in combat zones as they serve our country, it\u2019s critical that we better understand what is really happening inside the brains of these brave service men and women as a result of exposure to explosions, blast, and the impact of trauma. We are only in the embryonic stages of brain research, and we need to learn so much more about how this trauma could be connected with PTSD, and other possible psychological manifestations of CTE.
