She received the national American Psychological Association Clinical Neuropsychology Division 40 Graduate Student Research Award in 2004 for her research on "Cortical Sources of the N400 and 'The N400 Effect." Dr. Fong's interest in brain mapping soon turned to functional MRI, and since then, her research efforts have been focused on the clinical applications of fMRI.

Dr Fong has been instumental in helping BFS reach many more coaches and athletes with a clear concise understanding of the risks of concussion and the importance of "Back to Play" protocals.

Even more importantly working with Dr Fong and her team at Cognitive FX has demonstrated the value of proper strength and agility training in the prevention of concussion. Prevention is the missing component in many programs and the BFS is proud to be associated with Dr Fong and her research.
