Description: The Defense and Veterans Brain Injury Center (DVBIC) is a multi-site medical care, clinical research and education center funded by the Department of Defense (DoD). It conducts and advances research that enhances the quality, appropriateness, timeliness, and cost-effectiveness of treatment delivered to military and veteran beneficiaries with traumatic brain injuries (TBI) across the continuum of care. DVBIC research findings are applied to improve clinical care programs. Additionally, DVBIC has established a health care research infrastructure to conduct both single and multi-center studies. This infrastructure helps develop the necessary care of senior researchers needed for brain injury. DVBIC also collaborates with other governmental and civilian organizations. Specifically, DVBIC is engaged in cooperative research, education, and prevention programs with affiliated universities, Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, industry (e.g., pharmaceutical companies), and other interested parties.
