A warm welcome to Sim Jamil, our new PhD student!
Sim will be working with the intensive exposure-based treatment RCT for post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD). A thrilling project that will evaluate the effect, speed of recovery, and cost-effectiveness of a PTSD treatment delivered daily for five consecutive days. Preliminary research shows intensive trauma focused treatment (I-PE) to be as effective as when the treatment is delivered by weekly sessions, but with the advantage that the recovery rate is faster and the proportion of patients who drop out decreases.
Maria Bragesjö is Sim’s principal supervisor.
