Steffany Fredman conducts research at the intersection of post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD) and family functioning. She became interested in prevention research because she believes that treatment can double as prevention, as alleviation of PTSD symptoms earlier in the life plan can prevent future morbidity for the trauma survivor and his or her loved ones.
