The Neuroscience of Emotional Feelings: Preclinical Models of Psychiatric Disorders and Novel Treatments for Depression
Presenter: Jaak Panksepp, Ph.D.
Discussant: Jean Roiphe, M.D.
Free – RSVP For Members & NYPSI Students
This talk will summarize emerging knowledge of how primal affects are generated by subcortical brain systems that are homologous in all mammals. Seven emotional systems—SEEKING, RAGE, FEAR, LUST, CARE, PANIC and PLAY—have been identified using Deep Brain Stimulation. Accruing knowledge about the functions and neurochemistries of these systems provide a novel data base for thinking about i) the imbalanced emotional infrastructure of psychiatric problems, ii) how the efficacy of psychotherapeutic approaches might be better understood, and iii) insights into how novel psychiatric medicines might be developed.
Jaak Panksepp, Ph.D. is distinguished Research Professor Emeritus of Psychology at Bowling Green State University, Baily Endowed Chair of Animal Well-Being Science at Washington State University’s College of Veterinary Medicine; Distinguished Research Professor of Psychobiology, Emeritus at Bowling Green State University, and head of Affective Neuroscience Research at the Falk Center for Molecular Therapeutics at Northwestern University. He is editor of the Textbook of Biological Psychiatry and author of Affective Neuroscience: The Foundations of Human and Animal Emotions (1998) as well as Archaeology of Mind: Neuroevolutioanry Origins of Human Emotions (Norton, 2012, with Lucy Biven).
