TRACE is such an exciting sub-study of INTERSECT, looking to see if hair cortisol concentration is associated with traumatic birth, CB-PTSD, and postpartum depression, and if these differences vary by country. If you want to take part email us: intersect@city.ac.uk #cortisol

The number of countries participating in Wave 2 of data collection is amazing but we would love more lower income countries to also contribute for a more representative picture of childbirth-PTSD. If you would like to take part, please email us intersect@city.ac.uk #international
