Claude Lemieux’s Brain Donated to Boston University CTE Center
Following his passing, Claude Lemieux’s brain has been donated to the Boston University CTE Center for crucial research into the long-term effects of repetitive brain injuries. This decision, announced by his daughter Claudia Lemieux Bishop, stems from a desire to contribute to a greater understanding of sports-related head trauma. The family has granted permission for the CTE Center to publicly share any findings, hoping Lemieux’s posthumous contribution will lead to improved protections for athletes.
