"Dear all,

We are thrilled to announce the inaugural #ComputationalPsychiatry Conference to take place at Trinity College Dublin on July 6-8th, 2023 (#cpconf2023)

https://www.cpconf.org/

One of the key aims of #ComputationalNeuroscience is to construct theoretical accounts of normal mental function that link characterizations of #neurobiology, #psychology and aspects of the environment. In Computational Psychiatry (CP), these theories, realized in models at various scales, are used to elucidate dysfunction.

The 2023 Computational Psychiatry Conference (7th and 8th July) will contain six sessions, each with a keynote talk from senior faculty and also contributed talks and panel discussions.

The session themes will include Diagnostics, Reinforcement Learning models, Individual-level prediction, Development, Animal models and Treatments. There will also be poster sessions on both days.

The tutorial session (afternoon of 6th July) will contain three introductory talks on #psychiatry for non-clinicians, #BehaviouralModelling using #BayesianInference and #ReinforcementLearning, and #MachineLearning.

Abstract submissions will be closed on March 15th, 2023. We will be able to support 10 participants with a travel award based on a competitive review of their abstract submissions. Top submissions will also be invited as talks.

We look forward to seeing everyone in Dublin this summer!"

Well this is exciting... my #introduction: I am a #psychiatrist and #neuroscientist at #UCL studying #psychosis and #schizophrenia mainly - I use #computationalpsychiatry methods to try to infer neurobiological changes from brain imaging data, and also to understand how cognitive processes going awry could lead to symptoms like delusions and hallucinations. I'm also interested in so-called #functionalsymptoms, #AI, #OCD, #machinelearning, #activeinference and lots of arty stuff too...

I hope it's not too late for my #introduction

I am an associate professor of #Psychology at the #UniversityOfWashington, proud #Immigrant and #FirstGen. I work in #CognitiveScience and #CognitiveNeuroscience and specifically in #PredictiveModels of #Memory and #DecisionMaking and #CognitiveArchitectures: I think they will play an important role in #ComputationalPsychiatry.

Besides being a #science nerd, I love #movies (soft spot for #horror), #nature (we have #horses !) and #bicycling

Hi folks, another #introduction now that there are LOADs more people here (& I understand things a bit more!). Im a professor of #neuroscience and #mentalhealth at #UCL. Interested in how and why people feel #anxiety from both and adaptive and #psychiatry perspective. Also how different treatments (both #psychology and #pharmacology) work, and if we can target them better. We use #ComputationalPsychiatry, #translational #CognitiveTasks and #neuroimaging in humans.
