Dr. Julie Stamm is a Clinical Assistant Professor in the Department of Kinesiology at the University of Wisconsin-Madison. She received her doctorate from the Boston University School of Medicine in Anatomy and Neurobiology studying Chronic Traumatic Encephalopathy and the long-term consequences of repetitive head impacts in youth sports at the Boston University CTE Center and Psychiatry Neuroimaging Laboratory at Harvard Medical School/Brigham and Women’s Hospital. She received her undergraduate degree in Athletic Training from the University of Wisconsin-Madison and was a graduate assistant athletic trainer at Boston University.
She is the author of “The Brain on Youth Sports: The Science, the Myths, and the Future.” This episode unearths the hidden dangers of repeated head impacts (RHI) that often go unnoticed yet can significantly alter brain structure and chemistry. Discover the crucial link between these subtle impacts and serious conditions like Chronic Traumatic Encephalopathy (CTE), and learn why it's essential to recognize and minimize these risks for the long-term well-being of our youth.
We critically examine the practice of contact sports in high schools and explore the potential benefits of delaying such activities until high school. Dr. Stamm presents compelling evidence and stories of successful athletes who began contact sports later in life, underscoring the importance of protecting young, developing brains from cumulative impacts. We discuss the necessity of incorporating breaks between sports seasons to mitigate harm and provide a safer environment for our aspiring athletes.
Finally, we emphasize the importance of awareness and education among parents, medical professionals, and the community. Dr. Stamm shares her expertise on how even minor head impacts can accumulate over time, leading to severe issues like psychiatric problems and CTE. We highlight the urgent need for informed decisions to protect children's brains while still allowing them to enjoy the benefits of sports. Tune in for an eye-opening discussion that blends personal experiences with expert advice, ensuring you have the knowledge to better protect our young athletes.
