Chris Nowinski is well aware of the impact of bruises. He was a star football at Harvard University before wrestling career in World Wrestling Entertainment.

On one point, their dreams of a long history of struggle were frustrated by a kick to his chin. This kick, which led to Nowinski black and ended his career, the beginning of a career plagued by concussions.

“My world has changed,” said Nowinski. “I had depression. I had problems with memory. It hurts my head for five years.”

Nowinski began to search for studies that found scary.

“I noticed when I visit a large number of doctors had not given very good answers about what was wrong with my head,” said Nowinski. “I read [all the studies I could find] and I realized I had a lot of evidence of bruising lead to depression, and may lead to multiple concussion Alzheimer’s disease.”

Nowinski decided it was necessary to further study, so he founded the Institute for Sports Heritage, along with Dr. Robert Cantu, a neurosurgeon and co-director of the Neurological Sports Injury Center Brigham and Women’s Hospital in Boston. The project aims to study the brain of former athletes, who suffered multiple contusions.

When the family agrees to donate the brain, is given to scientists in CSTEE to find signs of damage.
