Wintersession workshop: Perspectives on Mental Illness

Monday January 20th to Thursday January 23rd, 2014

Mental illness knows no barriers, affecting people in every nation and every walk of life—young or old, rich or poor, civilian or soldier. As diverse and complex as they are widespread, mental disorders include mood and anxiety disorders, psychotic disorders, eating disorders, and personality disorders, just to name a few categories. In this four day workshop, sponsored by the National Institute of Mental Health-funded Conte Center at Harvard, we will explore the topic of mental health through multiple lenses—ranging from basic science and clinical research to artistic and personal perspectives. For details, please visit: http://conte.harvard.edu/wintersession-2014/
