You are warmly invited to join us for the launch event of the new Wellcome Trust funded project: Renewing Phenomenological Psychopathology.
About this Event

Renewing Phenomenological Psychopathology is a new project that aims to apply interdisciplinary approaches to phenomenological psychopathology and diversify the field more broadly. The co-leaders of this project are Professor Matthew Broome and Professor Giovanni Stanghellini. It is an International Exchange Award funded by the Wellcome Trust and will run from April 2022 to April 2024.

Through this hybrid launch event, we invite critical reflection on the theme of 'renewing phenomenological psychopathology'. Although phenomenological psychopathology has done much to expand our understanding of mental disorders, the tradition remains somewhat fossilized in the humanities and social sciences of the mid-20th century. We aim to infuse phenomenological psychopathology with the recent contributions of analytic philosophy of mind, hermeneutics, structuralist/post-structuralist philosophy, history, literature, values-based practice, developmental psychology, lived experience, service user research, and, of course, new approaches and inputs coming from phenomenological psychopathology itself. In addition, we hope to generate diverse international scholars from across disciplines and career stages to develop their research leadership and management activities.

Our Keynote Speakers are:

- Professor Kevin Aho

- Dr Lucy Bolton

- Dr Robert Chapman

We aim to make this hybrid launch event accessible to all, in line with the BPA/SWIP guidelines for accessible conferences. The launch event will be fully wheelchair-accessible, and we will endeavour to meet any accessibility requirements our speakers and attendees have. Refreshments will be available.

If you have any queries, we warmly encourage you to contact us at [email protected].
