About:


The International Society of Psychiatric Genetics [ISPG] is a worldwide organization that strives for the highest ethical standards in genetic research and the application of findings from genetic research in clinical psychiatric practice.

Objectives:

  • Promote and facilitate studies of the genetics of psychiatric disorders, substance use disorders and associated traits
  • Promote education, both of the scientific community and of the lay public
  • Encourage communication and collaboration among researchers
  • Encourage development of research methods
  • Strive for the highest ethical standards in research
  • Facilitate application of findings from genetic research to clinical psychiatric practice

Event
List:

  1. 15-th World Congress on Psychiatric Genetics: "Bridging Genes to Behavior in the Era of the Genome" October 7-11, 2007: New York, NY
  2. 16-th World Congress on Psychiatric Genetics October 11-15, 2008: Osaka, Kinki, Japan

Event
#1
Detail:



The analysis of increasing large and complex genetic datasets requires the development and application of new statistical methods. Because of rapid technological advances in the field, there is a need for researchers to acquire the latest molecular genetic research methods. Not only are current diagnostic methods for psychiatric disorders imprecise, but existing medication and treatments for severe psychiatric disorders are only partially effective and have many adverse effects. Strategies are needed to prevent major disorders, but this is not currently possible because their etiologies are unknown.

Objectives:

  • Develop knowledge of the genetic risks of psychiatric disorders to improve counseling of patients and families
  • Compare current technologies in molecular genetics based on up-to-date information and select the most appropriate technologies for each new research study
  • Be able to Analyze large-scale genetic data, including genome-wide data, with the most powerful available statistical methods
  • Develop valid diagnostic tests for specific psychiatric disorders based on genetic methods to improve treatment response
  • Discover specific associations between DNA sequence variation and psychiatric disorders, so that new medications that modify relevant molecular "targets" in these genes and genetic pathways can be developed
  • Discover genetic mechanisms underlying the genetic susceptibilities to major psychiatric disorders and develop a strategic plan
  • Develop new knowledge about genetic mechanisms underlying specific psychiatric disorders such as schizophrenia, mood and anxiety disorders, autism, and others and recognize the next steps in promoting discoveries in these areas
  • Select significant psychiatric genetic research topics and the best methodologies to study them and to improve exposure to diverse principles

  • Promote the integration of psychological treatments in treatment plans and comprehensive treatment for all persons with schizophrenias and other psychoses
  • Promote the appropriate use of psychological understanding and psychotherapeutic approaches in all phases of the disorders including both early in the onset and in longer lasting disorders
  • Promote research into individual, family, group psychological therapies, preventive measures and other psychosocial programmes for those with psychotic disorders
  • Support treatments that include individual, family, group and network approaches and treatment methods that are derived from psychoanalysis, cognitive-behavioural, systemic and psycho-educational approaches
  • Advance education, training and knowledge of mental health professionals in the psychological therapies and psychosocial interventions in the treatment and prevention of psychotic mental disorders for the public benefit regardless of race, religion, gender or socio-economic status

About:


The International Society of Psychoneuroendocrinology [ISPNE] is a non-profit educational and scientific organization. The purpose of the ISPNE is to coordinate the experiences of outstanding research workers from various fields in order to increase the understanding of normal and disordered brain functions. Hormones, through their biological activity on brain metabolism and function, exert effects on normal mental development, and on behavioral reactions and psychiatric disorders. Therefore, the ISPNE, through its interest in combining clinical and basic research among the various branches of neurobiology (i.e., neurobiochemistry, neurology, neuroanatomy, neurophysiology, neuroendocrinology, neuropharmacology, behavioral genetics, psychology and psychiatry) furthers the understanding of abnormal functional states in the brain by developing more clearly knowledge of the normal nervous system. This purpose is achieved by:
  • Improving the relationship among research workers in the neurobiological sciences in different countries through scientific congresses
  • Making possible an active interchange of people investigating specialized areas of brain functions to produce more integrated programs in psychoneuroendocrine research

The official journal of ISPNE is Psychoneuroendocrinology.

International Society for Psychophysics
c/o CNRS
31 Chemin Joseph Aiguier
F-13009 Marseille
France


About:


The International Society for Psychophysics [ISP] is a non-profit scientific organization created in 1984 to further the study and practise of psychophysics, that is to say the measurement and the study of the measurement of psychological functions.

The following general definition of psychophysics is offered by John C Baird and Elliot Noma in their 1978 book, Fundamentals of Scaling and Psychophysics (John Wiley & Sons, Inc), on page 1: Psychophysics is commonly defined as the quantitative branch of the study of perception, examining the relations between observed stimuli and responses and the reasons for those relations. This is, however, a very narrow view of the influence it has had on much of psychology. Since its inception, psychophysics has been based on the assumption that the human perceptual system is a measureing instrument yielding results (experiences, judgments, responses) that may be systematically analyzed. Because of its long history (over 100 years), its experimental methods, data analyses, and models of underlying perceptual and cognitive processes have reached a high level of refinement. For this reason, many techniques originally developed in psychophysics have been used to unravel problems in learning, memory, attitude measurement, and social psychology. In addition, scaling and measurement theory have adapted these methods and models to analyze decision making in contexts entirely divorced from perception.

  • Promote the study of psychobiological and psychosocial, ethical and cross-cultural problems in the fields of obstetrics and gynaecology, women's health and reproductive health
  • Promote education and training in the management of the problems mentioned under the previous paragraph
  • Encourage the creation of national societies of psychosomatic obstetrics and gynaecology which will promote research, education and training on a national level
  • Promote and facilitate the dissemination of new information in the fields mentioned before by organizing international congresses and through the official ISPOG publication

The official publication of ISPOG is the Journal of Psychosomatic Obstetrics and Gynecology.
