CARE 13-11 study explores the transmission of trauma within families. Exposure to a traumatic event can have an impact on those directly exposed, but also on their family.
This transmission is both biological and behavioral, leading to adaptation that is still poorly understood. CARE 13-11 project offers a unique opportunity to bring together different disciplinary fields, from neuroscience to human and social sciences, to understand this phenomenon.
To answer these questions, the study includes directly exposed families with minor children born before the events, as well as families with no exposure to these events (the so-called "control" group).
