About this episode

Posttraumatic stress disorder (PTSD) is a prevalent and often debilitating condition that follows exposure to a traumatic experience and can result in depression and increased suicide risk in vulnerable individuals. Researchers at the National Center for PTSD at the Department of Veterans Affairs in Boston, Boston University and Healthcore – New England Research Institutes are conducting a long-term observational study investigating PTSD symptom trajectories among male and female veterans who served in Iraq and Afghanistan.
