Introduction

Emotions play a central role in our everyday life, pervading all aspects of our thinking and behaviour. The Innsbruck Summer School 2015 provides the opportunity for 30 PhD and advanced master students to work with leading researchers representing a variety of academic disciplines such as psychiatry, neuroscience and pharmacology, and to discuss the various approaches currently being used to improve our understanding of the mechanisms behind emotions.

All issues relating to “emotions” will be investigated in an interdisciplinary approach to show how the disciplines benefit from each other and stimulate each other.

Lectures by leading international and European researchers will be accompanied by interactive workshops, practical sessions and group work.

Situated within easily accessible distances from the educational institutions. The rooms are either single or double rooms, in case of a shared room, you will share with one other student of the same gender.

Although our primary concern is providing education, there will be time to explore the city of Innsbruck including a trip to the surrounding mountains.
