Causal Concepts in Psychopathology: Multidisciplinary Perspectives


International conference

15-17 May 2023


University of Copenhagen (Panum), "Henrik Dam" Auditorium

Blegdamsvej 3b, 2200 Copenhagen N

For the sixth conference in this series, we will explore causality in psychiatric research and practice, a topic that has not been a focus of any of the earlier conferences. Causality cuts across many areas of psychiatry, from the purely conceptual/philosophical level to the interpretation of genetic, epidemiological, neurobiological and clinical research.

Kendler (Virginia Commonwealth University) – Adina Roskies (Dartmouth College) – Lauren Ross (University of California, Irvine) – Federica Russo (University of Amsterdam) – Josef Parnas (University of Copenhagen) – Eric Turkheimer (University of Virginia) – James Woodward (University of Pittsburgh) – Peter Zachar (Auburn University at Montgomery)
