Psychoanalytic Groups to Hold Joint Meeting in Rome This Fall

The American Academy of Psychoanalysis and Dynamic Psychiatry and the Organizzazione di Psicoanalisti Italiani-Federazione e Registro are holding their 13th joint meeting in Rome on November 12 and 13.

The keynote speaker is John Walkup, M.D., vice chair of the Department of Psychiatry and director of the Division of Child and Adolescent Psychiatry at New York-Presbyterian Hospital/Weill Cornell Medical Center. His lecture is titled "Challenges of Teaching Psychodynamics in Modern Psychiatry Training Programs."

This is the first time the joint meeting has been held in Rome, and November is an ideal time to visit—the weather is still good, and there are fewer tourists.

The meeting venue is the Centro di Formazione of the Polo Didattico, in the Piazza Oderico da Pordenone 3, 00145 Rome, easily reached by public transportation or taxi from central Rome.
