Description: ACE have been postulated to be associated with morphological alterations of the brain and subsequently its function. First evidence hints at certain vulnerable periods in which traumatisation is associated with damage of regions such as hippocampus, and amygdala. However, these studies need to be replicated in larger samples. Furthermore, the influence of specific types as well as the timing of ACE needs to be investigated. The planned projects will tackle these questions and also look at mental health disorders and physical health related to these morphological alterations.
