Specifically, we will address the following questions:
- What is exposure therapy and how is it currently used?
- What is the common core of all exposure therapy variants?
- What are the key parameters of successful exposure therapy?
- What are the neural underpinnings of how exposure therapy acts?
- Can we formulate exposure therapy as a dynamic feedback system to optimize and maybe even automatize exposure therapy?
