Asylum claims and memory of trauma : Sharing our Knowledge

This is a position paper, published as an editorial in the British Journal of Psychiatry.    It suggests that psychiatrists and psychologists have a breadth of knowledge—taking as an example the memory of trauma—which could help to inform the asylum process.  We need to investigate how to apply this knowledge and how to make it accessible to decision makers.
