Yuval Neria, PhD is an Associate Professor of Clinical Psychology at the Department of Psychiatry at Columbia University, and the Director of Trauma and PTSD Program at the New York State Psychiatric Institute.
He received his doctorate in psychology from Haifa University, Israel, in 1994, and subsequently served on the faculty of Tel Aviv University until his recruitment to Columbia University after the attacks of 9/11, 2001.
Dr. Neria’s research has been focused on the mental health consequences of exposure to extreme traumatic events, with a particular focus on war veterans, survivors of disasters, and civilians exposed to terrorism.
Dr. Neria’s scientific work has been inspired by his experience in combat. He was injured in the Yom Kippur 1973 War and was awarded the Medal of Valor, equivalent to the Congressional Medal of Honor. He has authored numerous articles in the area of trauma related disorders including PTSD, depression, and bipolar illness. He is the lead editor of two books "9/11: Mental Health in the Wake of Terrorist Attacks" (Cambridge University Press, 2006), and "Mental Health and Disasters" (Cambridge University Press, In Press). His research projects have been funded by the National Institute of Mental Health (NIMH), and NARSAD. He is the 2007 recipient of the Klerman NARSAD Award for outstanding Clinical Research, Honorable Mention.
