The Jewish experience includes a history of dislocation, trauma, and resilience.

World-renowned experts in the fields of trauma, epigenetics, and mental health will discuss the implications of the research and clinical work they have done with Holocaust survivors, Israeli soldiers, and their families. What lessons can we learn as we recover from a global pandemic, and confront systemic racism and assaults on our democratic institutions?
