Abstract

Cambridge Clinical Research Centre for Affective Disorders presents:

Andy MacLeod (Royal Holloway)on: Future-directed thinking and emotional disorders

How people think about their own personal futures is a key component of their well-being and mental health. This talk will discuss the different kinds of ways that future-directed thinking breaks down in anxiety and depression, as well as in suicidal behaviour, where disruptions to future-directed thinking are probably most stark. Understanding disruptions also offers the promise of interventions, and the talk will discuss strategies that might improve future-directed thinking.

The Seminar will be held at the Herchel Smith Building for Brain and Mind Sciences on the Forvie site at Addenbrooke’s Hospital in Cambridge ( Location ) Please note that no registration is required for this event.
