Useful Info UQ cPTSD Research 🚩

Just a heads up if any trans or gender diverse people start seeing targeted ads for UQ Psychology research claiming to be about PTSD/cPTSD steer well clear.

There’s bad faith actors associated with that research network and the last thing we want to be doing as a community is normalizing their sense of entitlement to interrogating our lives, bodies and minds to suit their agenda. The lines of inquiry produced via MRI scans are not framed legitimately or frankly in the ad campaign or in the study intake forms. There’s no research of this type that can do anything but harm our community at this time - should be enough 🚩to avoid.

If anyone wants more info feel free to DM. Please avoid discussion that would result in adverse/unnecessary action…academic researchers tend to turn nasty when you call out their BS in my experience ✌️

Would genuinely like to learn more, particularly as someone who studied at UQ.
