This effort also supports validation of interventions in Warfighters for post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD), validation of biomarkers of PTSD symptomatology, validation of methods to follow effectiveness of PTSD treatments, validation of neuroprotective (protection of nerves and nervous system) interventions and validation of strategies to prevent neurocognitive deficits (reduced ability to learn and comprehend) and symptomatology associated with brain injury.
