This season is made possible with the generous support of the Kimel-Schatzky Traumatic Brain Injury Innovation Fund.
1 in 5 Canadians experience mental illness, with young individuals the ages of 15-24 more likely than any other age group (Centre for Addiction and Mental Health, 2023). The pandemic has amplified the experience of equity-seeking communities and highlighted the disparity in access to quality health care. Research and evidence indicates a connection between traumatic brain injury (TBI) and mental health. Specifically, TBI survivors are at increased risk of developing a psychiatric condition or exacerbating a pre-existing condition.
In this episode, host Shaelyn Fitzpatrick is joined by guest speakers Dr. Matthew Burke and Dr. Vincy Chan to discuss the important and complex intersection between TBI and mental health.
