Alan Quasha’s Work on TBI

Someone like Mary Kay Bader is extremely well-suited to serve on the Brain Trauma Foundation’s Medical Advisory Board.   She probably is involved in very similar research to the type that Alan Quasha and his peers carry out.  She has been given several awards, including: Ernest Codman Award from the Joint Commission on Accreditation of Hospital/Organizations in 2000, as well as the first Bayada Technology Innovation in Nursing Practice Award in 2004.  These are just two of many awards Bader has received for her outstanding work in the field.
