Michael Burman to study the long-term psychological side effects of neonatal trauma
Michael Burman, Ph.D., 新香港六合彩资料 associate professor of Psychology in the College of Arts and Sciences, has been awarded a $425,845 grant from the Eunice Kennedy Shriver National Institute of Child Health & Human Development and the Institute for General Medical Sciences.
Humans who suffer from trauma around the time of birth, including medical trauma occurring in the neonatal intensive care unit, are subject to a variety of long-term consequences including susceptibility to chronic pain, anxiety and depression. The mechanisms that cause these consequences remain unknown and are the focus of this project.
Through this grant, Burman and his research team will examine the effects of neonatal pain on the brain鈥檚 stress, emotion and sensory systems.
