Upcoming International Conference 05 Apr 2013

The International Neuropsychoanalysis Society is hosting its 14th conference in Cape Town from the 22nd to the 25th of August. The conference is entitled The Clinical Applications of Neuropsychoanalysis and will feature internationally renowned experts such as Jaak Panksepp, Mark Solms, Oliver Turnbull and Katerina Fotopoulou.

The congress is aimed at professionals working with all aspects of mind/brain disorders and development. Neuropsychoanalysis contributes to understanding the mind/brain interface. But what are the practical implications of this understanding for our clinical work, as psychoanalysts and therapists or as neuropsychologists and psychiatrists? Set in the beautiful grounds of the University of Cape Town, this congress will address that question. Come learn about the implications of neuropsychoanalytic research for such diverse clinical topics as conversion disorders, depression, addiction, epilepsy, dementia and focal neuropsychological syndromes (e.g., confabulation). Find out also about the clinical implications of neuropsychoanalysis for conventional psychoanalytic therapy.

CPD points will be provided for both the conference and the education day. Please click on the link below to go to the conference webpage.
