Basic and clinical neuroscientists have been intensively studying the reactions of individuals to acute and chronic exposures to stressors and trauma for decades, but this research endeavor has grown even more important in light of the increasingly frequent medical diagnosis of Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD) among the military, and to determine its origins, treatments, and consequences. Some clinicians see the present emphasis as disregarding much prior knowledge about traumatic (emotional and physical) stress reactions, while others see now-forgotten childhood traumatic stressors as setting the stage for adult sociopathic behaviors, and emotional diseases, including criminal behavior and substance abuse. This conference will seek to present the current status of animal and human research into the reactions to environmental and physical stressors, both acute and chronic, to explore the means by which healthy brains respond to such stressors, and how it is that vulnerable individuals may fail to adapt and set the stage for adverse consequences. 

Abstracts for poster presentation are now invited. Please submit abstracts using the Online Submission Form by 30 May 2008.
