丹尼斯·斯隆, 原精神病学副教授,已晋升为正教授。 斯隆正在新濠影汇线上赌场研究更有效的治疗创伤后应激障碍的方法。 “We do have effective treatments for PTSD,” she says, “but they are typically quite time-consuming, with at least 12 one-hour sessions, and they require intensive training for therapists.”
Sloan is intrigued by the resilience of some people in the face of a traumatic event, while others develop PTSD. She believes a better understanding of that difference will inform PTSD treatment approaches.
她指出,“这个学术级别的女性人数有限”,她发现指导学生非常有益。 “在我的职业生涯中,我有很多优秀的导师,我认为指导是我回馈下一代临床科学家的机会。 I am particularly committed to encouraging more women to pursue academic careers.”
Sloan is the associate director of education, Behavioral Science Division, 国家创伤后应激障碍中心, at the VA波士顿医疗保健系统. She is the associate editor of 行为疗法 and is on the editorial boards of five other scientific journals, including, 行为新濠影汇线上赌场研究与治疗, 变态心理学杂志, and 身心医学.
