Healing TAU students from the trauma of October 7th
Support PTSD treatment for TAU students
Tel Aviv University (TAU) is a global leader in research, innovation, and impact, driving groundbreaking discoveries that shape a brighter future for Israel and the world. From pioneering medical advancements to cuttingedge technology, TAU fosters resilience and excellence across all disciplines.
TAU is home to Israel’s future leaders, innovators and visionaries. But today, many of our students are battling the invisible wounds of war.
In the aftermath of the October 7 terror attack and the ongoing conflict, countless TAU students, many of whom served as reservists, lost loved ones or endured unimaginable trauma are now suffering from post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD).
To meet this crisis head-on, TAU has established Israel’s most advanced post-trauma clinic, providing cutting-edge, evidence-based treatments developed by our world-renowned researchers over the last 30 years. Since opening in January 2024, the clinic has become a critical resource, treating nearly 1,000 patients, many of them TAU students struggling to rebuild their futures.
Nearly 7,000 students were in reserve service last year and some 6,000 this year. 19 students have been killed.
