Critical Neuroscience #6 Brain Images and Neurosubjectivities |听Suparna Choudhury and Jan Slaby

Dr. Suparna Choudhury and Dr. Jan Slaby talk about objective self-fashioning, how neuroscience is impacting selfhood. Is our brain our sense of identity? Does framing ourselves in terms of the brain (ie using "endorphin challenged" instead of "alcoholic") take away responsibility for ourselves? How plastic is our brain? Do we have a neurosignature? What affect does looking at the brain have on how we understand ourselves and our actions? Part of the Summer Programme in Social and Cultural Psychiatry from the Division of Social and Transcultural Psychiatry at 不良研究所.

What happens when we consider the large online community that we increasingly spend more time in? Part of the Summer Programme in Social and Cultural Psychiatry from the Division of Social and Transcultural Psychiatry at 不良研究所.

Critical Neuroscience #8 Neurophenomenology in Psychiatry |听Laurence Kirmayer

Dr. Laurence Kirmayer speaks on phenomenology and the ways in which it has mutated in a North American context. How are people framing the nature of their mental illness? How can we think of embodied experience (such as sleep paralysis) through metaphor as a bridge between neurology and a cultural point of view? Part of the Summer Programme in Social and Cultural Psychiatry from the Division of Social and Transcultural Psychiatry at 不良研究所.
