Funded Activity Summary

This project aims to identify neural and genetic predictors of treatment response in Posttraumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD). Exposure therapy is the most effective treatment for PTSD, but it is resource intensive and expensive and only 40% of patients respond. By identifying predictors of treatment response, this will allow us to identify at-risk patients and provide more intensive treatmentt prior to engaging in exposure therapy.
