If it is anything like the other millions that have gone into "researching" over the last hundred years on PTSD, then it will be more wasted time and lives. Not wasted money? No simply because someone or some group has always made money off the suffering of millions of people. Their suffering goes on while past research has been ignored as if it never happened.
Old research repeated after failures almost as if they have hoping for a different result. After all these years and all the money spent, it would be a good place for a researcher to be funded some of these millions to find out who got what and where it went.
The result has been an increase in suicides, attempted suicides, police and SWAT Team standoffs and veterans getting shot along with police officers. It has been one too many employers still not able to understand that considering there are millions of veterans with PTSD there are not millions of reports every year about them getting into any kind of trouble at all. More and more families wondering what went wrong when it is too late to learn and then wondering why no one told them what they needed to know when their veteran was still alive enough to heal.
More and more medications other "researchers" developed numbing them instead of helping them. Drugs with danger warnings growing longer and the list goes on. Would seem like a very good place to start and then move onto who has been held accountable for the deplorable results we've already seen.

Duke researchers have been given almost $3 million as part of the first wave of President Obama's Brain Research through Advancing Innovative Neurotechnologies initiative.What do you think?
On Sept. 30, the National Institutes of Health announced the first $46 million of BRAIN funding that will go towards 100 projects across 15 states and several countries. Two projects at Duke have received more than $1.4 million each over the next three years. The overall aim of the BRAIN initiative is to develop innovative technologies to advance the study of the human brain and treatments for brain disorders. In total, the initiative will distribute $110 million in research funding.What do you think?
“There are so many secrets of the human brain and so many diseases involving the human brain,” said Chunlei Liu, assistant professor of radiology at the School of Medicine and the leader of the one of the teams. “It’s not just that we don’t have ways to treat them—we don’t even have ways to understand them."What do you think?
The BRAIN initiative will make hundreds of millions of dollars available to researchers studying the human brain through both public and private funding. One of the major goals of the initiative is to conduct research into brain diseases such as Alzheimer's disease and post traumatic stress disorder. The project has been compared to the Human Genome Project in scope and scale.
