RUB ist Standort des Deutschen Zentrums für Psychische Gesundheit

RUB ist Standort des Deutschen Zentrums für Psychische Gesundheit

Bochum hat sich erfolgreich im bundesweiten Wettbewerb für das neue nationale Zentrum für die Spitzenforschung zur Verbesserung der psychischen Gesundheit durchgesetzt.

Psychische Störungen betreffen in Deutschland mehr als ein Drittel aller Menschen im Laufe ihres Lebens. Um sie verstehen, vermeiden oder erfolgreich behandeln zu können, muss der Blick auf Lebensspannen und Lebenswelten gerichtet werden. Mit dieser Überzeugung ist „LIFE TBT“ angetreten: Der Verbund, der von Prof. Dr. Silvia Schneider vom Forschungs- und Behandlungszentrum für psychische Gesundheit der RUB koordiniert wird, ist ein Standort des Deutschen Zentrums für Psychische Gesundheit. Das Zentrum aus insgesamt sechs Standorten ist auf Dauer angelegt und soll mit 30 Millionen Euro jährlich von Bund und Ländern gefördert werden. „Der Bochumer Erfolg ist nicht nur für die Ruhr-Universität mit ihrer langen Tradition in der Psychologie ein enormer Erfolg und ein Ausweis der Exzellenz, sondern auch ein weiterer Meilenstein für die Wissensmetropole Ruhrgebiet“, so Prof. Dr. Axel Schölmerich, Rektor der RUB.

GEM 2021 – Generative Episodic Memory Workshop

GEM 2021 – Generative Episodic Memory Workshop

16.02.2021 – 18.02.2021 (online, via conference platform “Whova”)

Organized by: Research unit FOR 2812 “Constructing scenarios of the past: A new framework in episodic memory”

Abstract

Episodic memories are widely regarded as memories of personally experienced events. Early concepts about episodic memory were based on the storage model, according to which experiential content is preserved in memory and later retrieved. However, overwhelming empirical evidence suggests that the content of episodic memory is – at least to a certain degree – constructed in the act of remembering. Even though very few contemporary researchers would oppose this view of episodic memory as a generative process, it has not become the standard paradigm of empirical memory research. This is particularly true for studies of the neural correlates of episodic memory. Further hindering progress are large conceptual differences regarding episodic memory across different fields, such as neuroscience, philosophy, and psychology. This interdisciplinary workshop therefore aims to bring together researchers from all relevant fields to advance the state of the art in the research on generative episodic memory.
