Traumatic events
Collective memory
Individual memory
• How does traumatic remembering evolve into individual memory and collective memory?
• How do great collective narratives feed individual memory?
• How does a traumatic event alter brain structures and functioning?
• Can we predict the development of post-traumatic stress and resilience through brain markers?
• What was the effective assistance to and care management for the wounded and what are the improvements proposed?
• What is the influence of modern media on the construction of individual memory and collective memory?
• Etc.
