Dorota Chapko  

This summer I did research at Aachen University in Germany in the department of psychiatry and psychotherapy in the faculty of medicine. I investigated how aggression and impulsivity are related to the level of sex hormones in healthy female subjects. After this experience I would like to join the Fear Extinction Mechanism lab at MIT in the Brain and Cognitive Science Department. My plan is to focus on Post Traumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD) and later on combine it with the topic of child soldiers and their reintegration into a society.
