Steven P Broglio

Steven Broglio is a Professor of Kinesiology, Neurology, and Physical Medicine and Rehabilitation at the University of Michigan in Ann Arbor. He completed his training at the University of Georgia, followed by his first faculty position at the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign. Dr. Broglio has been at the University of Michigan since 2011.

Dr. Broglio is currently the Associate Dean of Graduate Affairs for the School of Kinesiology and Director of the Michigan Concussion Center where he oversees clinical care, educational outreach, and multi-disciplinary research aimed at fundamental questions on concussion prevention, identification, diagnosis, management, and outcomes. His research has been supported by numerous foundations and federal funding agencies, generating nearly 300 peer reviewed works.

He has received research accolades from the International Brain Injury Association and the Brain Injury Association of America, and fellowship to the National Athletic Trainers’ Association, the American College of Sports Medicine, and the National Academy of Kinesiology.

Dr. Broglio's research agenda has consistently centered on collaborative, interdisciplinary science that elucidates the acute and persistent outcomes of concussion.

These investigations have largely been conducted among current and former athletes as the sporting environment serves as a perfect ‘research laboratory’ allowing for pre and post-morbid longitudinal designs in a population that incurs injuries at higher rates than the general population. Within this context, his work has focused on on three intersecting themes: 1) Concussion management, 2) Concussion biomechanics, and 3) Persistent effects of concussion.
