AI Summary
This bill directs the Secretary of Defense to establish a grant program to increase cooperation between the United States and Israel on post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD) research. The bill outlines findings related to the prevalence of PTSD among U.S. and Israeli military veterans and the need for more effective treatments. It authorizes the Secretary of Defense, in coordination with the Secretaries of Veterans Affairs and State, to award grants to eligible U.S. academic institutions and nonprofits to conduct joint PTSD research projects with Israeli entities. The bill also allows the Secretary to accept monetary gifts to support the grant program and requires a report to Congress on the use and success of the funded research projects. The authority to award grants under this program will terminate seven years after the first grant is awarded.
