15 to investigators on how to manage the effects of being exposed
16 to details related to traumatic stress in the course of their
17 work. Those would be some examples of trainings I have done.
18 Q. How do you keep up with the scientific literature in your
19 field?
20 A. So from my membership in a number of different divisions
21 and, of course, international and national traumatic stress

24 which they publish literature, scientific peer review
25 literature, or they also have newsletters. They also have
