Experts across a variety of disciplines are using a practice called 鈥渢rauma-informed care鈥 to interact with their subjects, patients, and the population in general.

Approaching something from a 鈥渢rauma-informed鈥 position can be difficult, as it can vary depending on what field you鈥檙e working in.

It鈥檚 a practice that鈥檚 being used in healthcare and education, and even recently in the field of journalism.

Just think of how reporters are tasked with covering tragedies like school shootings, police brutality, and natural disasters.

And even the wide-spread trauma of the coronavirus pandemic is something all of us need to deal with.

On Thursday鈥檚 鈥淪ound of Ideas鈥 we鈥檒l learn about how journalists are using 鈥渢rauma-informed鈥 practices to report on stories. We鈥檒l also discuss how all of us can use best practices to interact with others in our lives who are dealing with trauma.

Later in the program, we鈥檒l look back at the ban on supersonic travel put into place by the Federal Aviation Administration 50 years ago this week.

Two scientists from NASA will join us and discuss if there鈥檚 any future for supersonic travel, and if the technology used could be incorporated into other forms of travel.
