21st International Congress of the ISPS
Date: August 28th- September 1st 2019
Keynote Speakers include:
Inez Myin-Germeys
speaking about her prospective research on psychosis in adolescence
Inez Myin-Germeys trained as a psychologist and is currently professor of Psychiatry at KU Leuven, Belgium. She worked for 20 years at Maastricht University in the Netherlands where she started her research line on experience sampling methodology in the study of severe mental illness, specifically psychosis (awarded with an ERC consolidator grant). In 2015, she moved to Belgium, where she founded the Center for Contextual Psychiatry at KU Leuven funded by an FWO Odysseus brain gain fellowship. The Center for Contextual Psychiatry currently consists of 30 researchers and focuses on the interaction between the person and the environment in the development of psychopathology. Main research lines include 1) the phenomenology of severe mental illness, 2) psychological processes related to the development of psychopathology in adolescence, 3) statistical and methodological developments in experience sampling research, and 4) the development of ecological momentary interventions. Inez Myin-Germeys has published over 300 papers and has supervised over 30 PhD projects.
