Former athletes who played contact sports such as rugby, GAA, and soccer are being asked to take part in new research investigating the links between sport-related brain injury and dementia risk in later life.
The Resolve project, led by researchers from Trinity College Dublin, is seeking 360 people between the ages of 40 and 59 who previously played these sports at a high level.
