Conducted concussion research under Dr. Eric Nauman and Dr. Douglas Adams at Purdue University. We used impedance testing to determine the effects of large impacts on the human skull, neck, and brain, and the effectiveness of helmets in distributing the force of such impacts and preventing concussions. My contributions:• Designed and implemented a test plan to compare the performance of four leading brands’ football helmets• Conducted drop tests to analyze the effectiveness of each helmet for impacts of different magnitudes and at different locations to the head.• Wrote and implemented a test plan for impedance testing on a Riddell football helmet and a standard military helmet to determine their effectiveness of dissipating the energy from the impact
