Topics such as mental health and wellness\,\naddiction\, and other related issues will be covered to provide a comprehensive understanding of\nthe long-term effects of sexual abuse and the pathways to recovery. Moreover\, we will examine\nthe role of digital and social media in the context of sexual abuse\, particularly focusing on the\nemergence of deep fake pornography and Child Sexual Exploitation (CSE). We will discuss how\nthese digital threats complicate the landscape of abuse and the critical need for innovative\nprevention\, detection\, and support approaches. \nJoin us to gain a deeper understanding of the intersection between neuroscience\, digital\nthreats\, and sexual abuse\, and learn how we can support healing and growth in this challenging\nenvironment. \nProfessor Selena Bartlett is an international leader in the field of\nTranslational Neuroscience.
