In the Summer Course on Fear and Anxiety each day is dedicated to a different theme within the field of anxiety at large:
- Anxiety, fear and panic: introducing the concepts
- Panic and vital threats
- Obsessions and compulsions
- Treatment response
- Stress and trauma
The morning sessions are dedicated to the PBL-sessions: workshops during
which the students work in small groups on assignments and discussion
topics related to the theme of the day. The assignments contain elements of fundamental neuroscience as well as clinical applications. Each group will summarize their
results in a presentation at the plenary session on
Friday.
Each Summer Course, we present lectures and workshops by our own
faculty but also a series of guest lectures by esteemed scientists from
all over the world. The following guest lectures will be presented
this year:
