PSOT Director Dr. Allen Keller coauthored a report recently released by Physicians for Human Rights titled "Aiding Torture," which details how the CIA relied on the expertise of medical and mental health professionals to carry out abusive and unlawful interrogations. The report was cited in a New York Times editorial on September 3, 2009. "Clearly, there is a need for a full investigation concerning U.S. policies and torture including the role of health professionals," says Dr. Keller. "Health professionals participated in torture must be held accountable, including criminal prosecution and loss of licensure."

"As a psychologist who cares for torture survivors, I find it particularly troubling that members of our profession were central to devising and carrying out such brutal and ultimately harmful policies," says PSOT Director of Clinical Services, Dr. Hawthorne Smith.
