In this lecture, Professor Mark Solms will briefly outline some theoretical innovations arising from neuropsychoanalytic research, and then discuss the implications for our understanding of the aims and mode of action of psychotherapy, with special emphasis on our understanding of repression, transference and working through.

He has published 350 articles in neuroscientific and psychoanalytic journals and has authored eight books. The Brain and the Inner World was translated into 13 languages.
