DISconnected - The neurobiology of posttraumatic dissociation

This project aims to gain further understanding in how dissociative states correspond with neurobiological and psychophysiological alterations in individuals diagnosed with post-traumatic stress disorder. We employ a multi-method approach including functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI), transcranial magnetic stimulation (TMS), and electrocardiography (ECG).
