Uncovering how recent vs. remote trauma alters key stress biomarkers
In this presentation, Prof. Nicolas Rohleder, Chair of Health Psychology at Friedrich‑Alexander‑Universität Erlangen‑Nürnberg, explores how trauma type and timing shape the body’s biomarker response, revealing distinct patterns across recent and remote trauma exposure. He shares research examining key indicators, including cortisol, cytokines, heart‑rate variability, and alpha‑amylase, and highlights how individuals with trauma histories show biological response profiles that differ markedly from those of healthy controls.
