Ronald Britton
Between Body and Mind?
15 October 2010, at the Royal Geographical Society, 1 Kensington Gore, London SW7 2AR
Eminent psychoanalyst Ronald Britton examines the position of psychoanalysis on a conceptual axis which puts physical and mental at opposite ends of a continuum - one which as yet does not meet in the middle. Currently the neurosciences are approaching from one end of this continuum and the mental sciences from the other.
In discussion with Peter Hobson, Professor of Developmental Psychopathology at University College London, Dr Britton will explore the idea that psychoanalysis operates in the uncharted middle ground, studying mental life in much the same way as Darwin studied natural history before it was able to join up with the new science of the biology laboratory.
Ronald Britton is well known internationally as a psychoanalytic writer, teacher and clinician. His books include The Oedipal Complex Today, Belief and Imagination, Sex, Death and the Superego. He was President of the British Psychoanalytical Society, a Vice-President of the International Psychoanalytical Association and former Chair of the Tavistock Clinic's Department for Children and Families.
Peter Hobson is Tavistock Professor of Developmental Psychopathology in
the University of London, based at the Tavistock Clinic and the Institute of
Child Health, UCL. He is a psychiatrist and psychoanalyst, and has a PhD
in Experimental Psychology. His research interests converge upon
the significance of interpersonal relations for understanding the course
of human development. His most recent book is The Cradle of Thought (2002, PanMacMillan).

The Institute of Psychoanalysis Audio-Visual Project
Introduction
The films on this page are part of an ongoing audiovisual project. This was started in 2007 by the Student Organisation of the British Institute of Psychoanalysis, with the aim to film eminent psychoanalysts talking of their work and life with new generations of students and psychoanalysts. In 2008 a film group was also established in the British Psychoanalytical Society. Funding generously granted from the International Psychoanalytical Association will help to develop the quality of the materials produced, and will include the production and restoration of audiovisual material on various clinical and theoretical topics related to psychoanalysis, as well as its training. This page will be updated as new films will become available.

A FOUNDATION COURSE IN PSYCHOANALYSIS
This new course is aimed at those who seek a deeper knowledge of psychoanalytic ideas and their application to clinical work. It will be of particular interest to those who may wish to pursue a future training in psychoanalysis.
Entry to the course is open to all postgraduate professionals - both those working in the field of mental health ( psychiatrists, psychologists, counsellors, psychotherapists, doctors, nurses, social workers and teachers) and other professionals, as well as recently qualified graduates, who are thinking about a career in psychoanalysis, but who have not yet had any clinical experience.
Whilst the Introductory Lectures Course precedes the Foundation Course, it may not be necessary to have attended the introductory lectures before applying to this course.
The course will take place on Friday afternoons between l pm and 3.30 pm throughout the academic year and will offer theoretical seminars (l ¼ hours) followed by clinical work discussion seminars (11/4 hours). Help in finding a suitable honorary placement may be offered to those participants who have had no prior experience in the field of mental health.
The course fees for the foundation course are £1200 per
year.
