This conference will bring together researchers and clinicians at the forefront of PTSD research and treatment in order to establish a dialogue in three important areas: prevention, diagnosis and treatment.
New developments will be presented, such as identification of the involvement of various brain centres in PTSD in introducing medication previously employed in the treatment of physical disorders to enhance treatment. New treatment approaches, such as Interpersonal Therapy, will also be demonstrated.
