"The concussion crisis has changed the face of sports as we know it and it has brought to surface the incredible importance of our brain health. The time is now for us to make our brain the number one priority so that education and awareness can take effect and begin to change the way we approach the health of our athletes from youth to professionals." -Ben Utech, Ambassador, The American Academy of Neurology.

"The Silent Epidemic: Quest For A Cure chronicles the distinguished academic career of neuroscientist Michel Baudry, a story of the ecstatic ups and awful downs of a life wading through the research trenches. Baudry's particular trenches led, dimly at times, to an explanation of a group of enzymes called calpains. That said, the book is not about enzymes; it's about the eternal struggle of science and the astonishing commitment of scientists like Baudry. Especially in our current moment, the broader public would benefit from understanding the nobility of that struggle."

-Terry McDermont, author of 101 Theory Drive: A Neuroscientist's Quest for Memory
