Guidelines for PTSD Treatment Trials (484 KB, PDF) - This meeting summary provides design and implementation recommendations for PTSD treatment trials. The recommendations were developed by scientific experts to strengthen PTSD treatment effectiveness trials. We encourage scientists submitting applications to use these recommendations to develop strong clinical trial proposals. CSRD will also be disseminating this summary to our scientific peer review committees to use to evaluate applications.

Clinical Science Research and Development (CSR&D) supports research focusing on intact human beings as the unit of examination. Examples include interventional and effectiveness studies, clinical, epidemiological and technological studies. CSR&D was created through a reorganization of the former Medical Research Service and Cooperative Studies Program (CSP). The CSP conducts multisite clinical trials and system-wide epidemiological investigations; CSP also provides infrastructure support for the Million Veteran Program. For CSP information, please visit the CSP website.

CSR&D is headed by Director Dr. Timothy O’Leary.
