Project Number

Institution
New York State Psychiatric Institute
Fiscal Year Awarded
2016
Project Duration
5 years

Description

The Wave 3 WTC Family Study examines prospectively the consequences of parental 9/11 exposure to children and parents in a sample of First Responders and WTC Evacuees previously assessed in two waves of data collection, with non-exposed control families. The Study examines the link between WTC exposure and a range of psychiatric disorders and explores the RDoc constructs of mental function and the gene-environment interactions that underlie them.

The overall aim is to understand post-9/11 long-term psychiatric outcomes and emotional health through an examination of their associated RDoC dimensions and underlying interactions among genome-wide genetic variation and direct/indirect WTC exposure(s).
