Book excerpt: Traumatic brain injury (TBI) remains one of healthcare's most significant challenges and policy making. TBI could not only lead to long-term functional impairment but also a decrease in quality of life. Lowering the mortality risk and benefitting survivors' living quality remains the target of neurotrauma studies globally. With the advent of novel TBI-related clinical and basic research approaches, diagnostics, therapeutics research, and novel and multidisciplinary methods have emerged. Despite promising progress, no completely effective treatment prevents or minimizes TBI and its related neurological and psychiatric sequelae. Understanding the mechanisms underlying the pathophysiology, treatment progress, and clinically based translational and engineering research on TBI may pave the way for potential treatment targets, diagnostic markers, and preventive methods that ultimately lead to efficacious therapeutic strategies. This Research Topic aims to disseminate high-quality TBI and related research, especially for the compositive and in-depth study in integration, translation, and multidisciplinary approaches in TBI research, including new technology and research methods in clinical neurology, new findings in neuroendocrinology, neuropathology and new development in neuropharmacology, neurophysiology. This Research Topic is focused on novel developments, current challenges, future perspectives, and especially interdisciplinary research in the field of TBI.
