MH&NS School for Mental Health and Neuroscience
Course:
From Human Neuroanatomy to Psychopathology
February 24-27, 2014
Maastricht University / Euron
INTRODUCTION
Introduction
This MH&NS course aims to introduce PhD students to basic concepts of neuroanatomy, functional
neuroanatomy and neuropathology and will clarify the current knowledge on the neuroanatomical and
neurobiological underpinnings of neuropsychiatric disorders. The course of 4 consecutive days starts with 2 days
of interactive lectures and practical hands-on on neuroanatomy of the human brain. The third day of the course
will link the functional and anatomical concepts to clinical neuropsychiatric disorders such as schizophrenia,
Parkinson disease, Alzheimer’s disease, stroke, and affective disorders. The fourth day will provide the students
with practical experience with functional and structural MRI methodologies. The multidisciplinary teaching
staff consists of world-renown experts in the fields of neuroanatomy, neuroscience, imaging, and clinical
neuropsychiatry and will provide an excellent learning experience for PhD students working in neuroscience,
psychiatry and psychology.

BIOSKETCH /ABSTRACT
Douwe Draaisma (1953) holds the Heymans Chair for Professor History of Psychology, Faculty of
Behavioural and Social Sciences, University of Groningen.
He graduated in psychology and philosophy at the University of Groningen, the Netherlands. He then
moved on to the University of Utrecht, where he wrote a dissertation on the metaphorical nature of the
language of memory (De Metaforenmachine, 1993). After his return to the University of Groningen in
1993 he directed his attention to the history of the notion of precision in early experimental psychology
(The Age of Precision: F. C. Donders and the Measurement of Mind) and autobiographical memory (Why
Life Speeds Up As You Get Older). His other main publications are on the Dutch psychologist-philosopher
Heymans (1857-1930), William James, the history of time measurement, and history of neurology. The Van
der Leeuw-Lecture 2002 by novelist Ian McEwan was followed by a comment by Draaisma. In 1990 the
Dutch Psychological Association awarded Draaisma the Heymans Award for his work on the history of
psychology. The book on autobiographical memory won him several scientific and literary awards.
ABSTRACT
Capgras Syndrome is a disorder characterized by the patient’s delusional belief that his near ones are
replaced by doubles. Since its initial identification in 1923, Capgras Syndrome has had a two-stage history.
Until the 1970s the delusion was explained in terms of psychodynamic forces, assuming, for instance, that
creating a double was the patient’s subconscious way of handling mounting tensions between
ambivalent feelings towards his near ones. In the 1980’s, however, Capgras Syndrome came to be seen as
caused by a neurological deficit, the result of a disconnection between visual and emotional recognition
of familiar faces. This explanation originated from research on the neurological representation of face
recognition. In my talk I will argue that these two stages also represent widely diverging scientific styles.
