Symposium CRPP Synapse & Trauma

Aversive memories: Translating Basic Science to Clinical Treatment

In today's turbulent world, stress and trauma have emerged as major risk factors for various psychiatric disorders. Across the entire spectrum of trauma-related disorders, cognitive-behavioural psychotherapy, which seeks to modify aversive memories, is currently the recommended first-line treatment. Yet, in clinical practice the majority of patients remain symptomatic. This has led to high-profile calls for developing adjunct pharmacological therapies. During the same time, advances in synaptic biology yielded a wide range of compounds that modify synapses themselves, the surrounding extracellular matrix that shapes their properties, and the daily rhythms of sleep and wake that govern their strength. Our Clinical Research Priority Program «Synapse and Trauma» connects these disparate strands and delivered novel insights for approaches to alter aversive memories. We focus on the combination of psychotherapy with pharmacological agents that modulate intra-synaptic signaling. Along with esteemed national and international colleagues from basic and clinical science we will in our symposium discuss such novel approaches to tackle aversive learning and memories. We will also engage in discussing the unique challenge of translating basic science findings to practice and to bringing them to clinical application.
