We are witnessing a growing interest in scientific models that make reference to psychoanalysis. In this context, the specificities of the Freudian unconscious are rediscovered from novel perspectives provided by the neurosciences.
This trend raises stimulating epistemological questions in relation to the different methodologies used by the psychoanalytic and scientific fields respectively. For instance: Which unconscious properties inferred from the psychoanalytic clinic could be experimentally explored? Can we expect the psychoanalytic methodology to trigger novel scientific research projects, better fit to the specificities of the Freudian unconscious? What kind of empirical approaches to the unconscious could modify the way psychoanalytic cures are conducted?
The Agalma Foundation aims at facilitating exchanges between psychoanalysis and neurosciences. To pursue this interdisciplinary goal, the foundation proposes to bring together prominent researchers involved in both fields to exchange their views and explore the possibility of original research projects. In this context, the foundation organizes a first workshop on the Freudian unconscious between neurosciences and psychoanalysis.
