Conferences

The International Trauma Studies Program, New York University
The Embodiment of Trauma. Four Approaches Integrating Mind and Body in the Therapeutic Setting
16.-17.03.2001, 9:00 am to 5:00 pm
Main Building, New York University, Room 520
100 Washington Square East/33 Washington Place, New York, NY 10003
To be traumatized is to be frozen in some aspect of being. This can take many forms from a subtle loss of vitality to massive anxiety that cripples one's every waking hour. During the past ten years the field of neurobiology has virtually exploded with new research on the human response to trauma. While there is more and more information on the how trauma affects the brain and body, there is much less known about treatment approaches incorporating this new paradigm. Does healing and recovery include both dimensions, mind and body? Trauma treatment may need to extend beyond the traditional verbal methods, which focus primarily on relational, emotive and cognitive dimensions. The new body-oriented therapies can offer an approach to include the body in the treatment process. During this two-day seminar clinicians will be introduced to four body-oriented therapies. The four presenters Diane Poole Heller, MA, LPC, NCC, David Read Johnson, Ph.D., RDT, Nancy J. Napier, MFT, Amber E. Gray, MPH, MA, DTR, BENC are innovative experts in their fields and will discuss and demonstrate their methodologies for incorporating psycho-physiological treatment of trauma.

Psychological Trauma. Maturational Processes and Therapeutic Interventions
23.-24.03.2001, Boston, Massachusetts, The Boston Park Plaza Hotel
Pre-Conference Institutes
Workshop I
Movement and Action in the Transformation of Trauma: The Role of Somatic Experience, Purposeful Action, and Theater in the Treatment of Trauma
Workshop II
Psychomotor Therapy
March 22, 2001

Course and Institute Directors
Bessel A. van der Kolk, M.D., Terence M. Keane, Ph.D.

Co-Sponsored by:
"Boston University School of Medicine, Division of Psychiatry" and "Arbour Health System and The Trauma Center, A Program of Arbour Health System"

Course Description: In recent years there has been an explosion of knowledge about how experience shapes the central nervous system and the formation of the self. Developments in the neurosciences, in developmental psychopathology and in information processing have begun to show how brain function is shaped by experience and that life itself can continually transform perception and biology. The study of trauma has probably been the single most fertile area within the disciplines of psychiatry and psychology in helping to develop a deeper understanding of the interrelationship between emotional, cognitive, social and biological forces that shape human development. Starting with post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD) in adults, but expanding into early attachment and coping with overwhelming experiences in childhood, our field has discovered how certain experiences can "set" psychological expectations and biological selectivity. We have learned that most experience is automatically processed on a subcortical level, i.e. by "unconscious" interpretations, outside of awareness. Insight and understanding have only a limited influence on the operation of these subcortical processes. When addressing the problems of traumatized people who, in a myriad of ways, continue to react to current experience as a replay of the past, there is a need for therapeutic methods that do not exclusively depend on understanding and cognition. This course will present current research findings about how people's brains, minds and bodies interpret traumatic experiences and how they regulate emotional and behavioral responses. We then will explore post-traumatic responses at different developmental levels, and the treatment implications of these findings. We will explore how affect regulation and the interpretation of innocuous stimuli as threats are the core issues that require interventions aimed at restoring active mastery and the capacity to focus on the present, rather than the past. Since traumatic memories often are dissociated and may be inaccessible to verbal recall or processing, close attention needs to be paid to the development of inner resources to deal with dysregulation and helplessness and the careful timing of the exploration and processing of the traumatic past.

Target Audience: This conference is designed for Psychiatrists, Psychologists, Social Workers, and Allied Mental Health Professionals.

Educational Objectives: The objective of this course is to present current research findings about post-traumatic responses with a special emphasis on how memories of trauma are processed throughout the life cycle and to explore in-depth the treatment implications of these findings.

Memory of the Holocaust Foundation
First International Survivors Convention
17.-20.04.2001, Buenos Aires, Argentina
The Conference will take place in Buenos Aires, Argentina, 17-20 April, 2001, coinciding with the commemoration of the anniversary of the rise of the Warsaw Ghetto. As you know, Buenos Aires has sadly been the site of two of the most brutal and criminal bombings the Jewish People suffered in the last years, as were those against the Israeli Embassy and the AMIA building. Buenos Aires has also been the capital that has received more than 1,500 Nazi officers, such as Adolf Eichmann and Erich Priebke, who were finally tried in their countries of origin for the horrendous crimes they perpetrated. Close to 8,000 survivors came to Argentina, and the 'Memory of the Holocaust Foundation' has been created in the past years, having as its main goal the establishment of the 1st. Spanish-speaking Integral Education Center about the Shoah and the first Museum of the Shoah in Latin America, the only one for a 450 million Spanish speaking population.
This event is part of a program to create awareness among the Argentine and Latin American society of the dangers of forgetting and repeating. Our aim is also to promote a strong impulse to achieve the construction of the Museum of the Shoah and the creation of official educational programs within the Argentine and Latin American governments.
The Convention's objectives are as follows:
a. As a result of its implementation and commitment with memory, promote a social impact that sensitizes the population, leading to reflection and learning.
b. To sponsor a meeting of personal histories and experiences, promoting a reunion of survivors of like origins, cities, ghettoes or concentration camps.
- Promote a meeting of reflection about the role of the survivors and the presence of the Memory of the Shoah in the education of new generations.
- Promote an environment propitious for the exchange of experiences carried out by the survivors in each of their countries.
- To honor the victims during Yom Hashoah.

Simultaneously, the First Latin American Forum on the Shoah will take place in Buenos Aires. The President of the Nation, Dr. Fernando de la Rua is already inviting senior political authorities of the governments of the other Latin American countries.

New for 2002
Modern Jewish Studies
We would like to invite you to contribute to a new journal, Modern Jewish Studies.
Modern Jewish Studies will offer a multidisciplinary and international forum for scholars in Jewish Studies, by engaging rigorously critical perspectives on traditional ideas, from the period of the Enlightenment to the present day. The period covered will be from the late 18th century to the present. The focus of the journal will predominantly be on the humanities and social sciences: Jewish history, sociology, politics, literature and thought.
The philosophy of the journal is to take a critical, even challenging, view, that is, to examine, and sometimes question, underlying ideas, assumptions and methods in a way which is radical in the basic sense of 'going to the root'. The journal will not be controversial for the sake of controversy, but will not hesitate to question received wisdom where appropriate. There is also much scope for comparative work, for example in relation to the Islamic world, and for modern Jewish literature to be discussed in a comparative context. Each issue of the journal will comprise research papers that use a range of theoretical and methodological approaches, covering modern Jewish studies predominantly through the humanities and the social sciences: political and cultural history, thought (including religious thought), language, literary studies and sociology. From time to time, an edition of the journal may be a focus issue on a particular topic.
Each issue of Modern Jewish Studies will be peer-reviewed and will contain the following:
Research papers (formal papers representing original research, up to 8,000 words including footnotes), reviews of scholarship in Jewish Studies (book review essays, up to 4,000 words; short reviews, up to 1,000 words), occasional round-table discussions
For further details on how to submit a paper, please visit:
URL http://www.tandf.co.uk/journals/carfax/14725886.html
Please submit a 200-word abstract of your paper by e-mail as soon as possible. Completed papers (three copies) should be sent to the Editor at the address below by June 15, 2001.
