Recognizing the specific and unmet global need for expanding research in pediatric brain injury outcomes, Dr. Shah has co-directed (with Dr. Stacy Suskauer) the creation of the Pediatric Brain Injury Consortium since 2019 (eight pediatric rehabilitation facilities in the U.S.). The goals of the Pediatric Brain Injury Consortium are to: (1) characterize the demographics and clinical course; (2) assess predictors of cognitive outcome; (3) elucidate the mechanisms underlying recovery of cognition, (4) establish standardized age-appropriate outcome measurements and (5) conduct clinical trials that evaluate interventions to optimize outcomes.
