In the strange pandemic time of 2020, we were not able to include the group reports from our dynamic correspondents around the world. To make up for it, we now present a rich array of reports covering the entire year of 2020, through the spring of 2021. Our Regional Group coordinators report a truly remarkable set of interdisciplinary activities – reading groups, research projects, publications of all sorts, and a heartening level of inter-group collaboration. After more than a year of Zoom meetings and seminars, we look forward to greeting new colleagues as old friends when we are finally able to meet in person (as we intend to do in San Juan, Puerto Rico, in the summer of 2021)! In the meantime, enjoy the news of our colleagues from all around the world – from Japan, Turkey, a variety of Russian-speaking countries, Sweden, Italy, the United Kingdom, Spain, Portugal, and Mexico. For more information on regional groups (and submitting information on a new group, if you form one), visit https://npsa-association.org/who-we-are/the-international-neuropsychoanalysis-society/. We look forward to hearing from you, and seeing you soon! (Maria Sonia Goergen, M.D., and Maggie Zellner, Ph.D., L.P., Editor)
The Portuguese Neuropsychoanalysis Group, located in Lisbon, was formed on the 26th July of 2017 and is composed of seven members with expertise in different areas in neuropsychoanalysis: adult and child psychiatry, psychoanalysis, psychosomatic medicine, neuropsychology, behavioural neurology. These members work at public hospitals, universities and in private practice.
Our aim is to bridge the mind/brain problem, bringing together the objective and subjective parts of neuropsychoanalysis, mainly through clinical material derived from psychoanalytic treatment and understanding of psychopathology in neurological patients and the combination and integration of psychoanalytic and psychopharmacological treatments in psychiatric patients.
