P434. Potential Functional Connectivity Alterations in Adolescents Following Concussion

Adolescent concussion is a growing public health concern, with adolescents often reporting longer and more severe symptoms than adults and younger children. Yet, the neurological mechanisms underpinning concussive symptoms at this developmental stage are not well understood. While resting state fMRI is a useful tool in examining these mechanisms, few studies have used this technique to examine the impact of concussion during adolescence.
