Overview

Trauma, in the context of neurological research and therapy, refers to injury or overwhelming stress affecting the nervous system, encompassing both physical trauma to the brain, spinal cord, and peripheral nerves and the lasting neurological and psychological consequences of distressing experiences. Physical neurotrauma, such as traumatic brain injury, results from external force and can disrupt the structure and function of neural tissue, producing deficits in movement, cognition, mood, and consciousness. Psychological trauma, by contrast, can alter brain circuits involved in fear, memory, and emotion regulation and is linked to conditions such as post-traumatic stress disorder, anxiety, and depression. Neuroscience research has shown that trauma of either kind can change the brain's connectivity, neurochemistry, and even its structure, and that some of these changes may be lasting. Treatment correspondingly spans acute medical and surgical care, neurorehabilitation, pharmacological management, and evidence-based psychological therapies. The journal Neurological Research and Therapy publishes work across the diagnosis, mechanisms, and management of nervous-system disorders and injury. This page gathers peer-reviewed, open-access scholarship relevant to the nature of trauma, its effects on the nervous system, and approaches to its treatment.
