Why is dissociation so hard for even mainstream psychologists to understand? How can we better diagnose Dissociative Identity Disorder (DID). Our guest, Dr. Simone Reinders, helps us explore the answers.

Dr. Reinders is a leader and international expert in the neurobiology of dissociation. She was the first to provide evidence that DID is related to early traumatization, and her research has been pivotal in our understanding of it. As a Senior Research Associate & Lecturer at the Department of Psychological Medicine in the Institute of Psychiatry, Psychology & Neuroscience at King's College London, Dr. Reinders has shown that DID and post-traumatic stress disorder share neurostructural biomarkers. We also talk about how Dr. Reinders’ work can aid the diagnosis of DID, which also points to how machine learning could assist in the diagnostic process.
