Dr. Walters’s presentation will describe how historical trauma and microaggressions impact indigenous embodiment of health in a six-site national study of 447 gay, le...

The Effects of Early, Profound Deprivation on Brain and Behavioral Development
Many aspects of postnatal brain development depend critically on experience for development to proceed normally. In this talk I will discuss what happens to children whose postnatal experience violates what we have come to expect as a species.

A total of 136 children who had been abandoned at birth and placed in various institutions in Bucharest, Romania were targeted for study, along with a sample of 68 children who lived with their biological parents in the greater Buchares...
