Researchers working to treat soldiers in a better way

Soldiers are very important part of a country. They needed to be treated properly. Scientist has been working it. The researchers at Auburn University are studying various structures and activity of the brains of soldiers. They are especially studying the soldiers from Iraq and Afghanistan. It is a great effort to understand the post-traumatic stress, situations, disorder and post-concussion syndrome faced by returned soldiers. For this study researchers are working on 160 soldiers who have been diagnosed with PTSD. Further for this study a good percentage of the healthy soldiers have been deployed to Iraq or Afghanistan, but do not have PTSD or PCS. This will help them to learn cause and effects over these soldiers. Marlin Wolf, a clinical neuropsychologist at Fort Benning explains, “As a neuropsychologist I am concerned with the applied science of brain-behavior relationships. My role at Fort Benning has been to diagnosis and treats active duty service members returning from war who have sustained mild to moderate traumatic brain injuries. They also have co-morbid disorders including PTSD, insomnia, depression and chronic pain which we treat.”
