Title :

From self-knowledge to knowing others: Insights from clinical populations with socio-cognitive disorders

Date / Time:

07-11-2019 - 09:00

Type of seminar :

Seminar and meetings

Summary :

Our abilities to know others – e.g. their feelings, beliefs, or personality traits – and to know ourselves develop together, engage overlapping brain regions, and are often concomitantly impaired in mental disorders. Attempts to link the processes underpinning self- and others’ understanding are bourgeoning but scattered; this research has no field or community on its own. This workshop aims to raise awareness and build a community by gathering, for the second time, renowned experts who will share their experience in measuring and linking self- and others' understanding. While last year’s workshop highlighted psychological and neuroscientific methods, this year the workshop will focus on clinical populations with socio-cognitive disorders such as autism, schizophrenia, Alzheimer, borderline personality disorder, substance use disorder, and acquired brain injury. Clinicians and researchers interested in the topic are welcome. Each talk will provide a theoretical introduction of the clinical condition, share practical and methodological advices, inform about important and latest findings, and invite for further reflections and debate.
