Friends & Colleagues,

     I would like to invite you to a compelling panel discussion and lunch on November 10th in New York — sponsored by the Wellesley Centers for Women.  I have worked with a group of friends of WCW to put together what has now become an annual event and ongoing conversation — “Women and ….”

     At this year’s event, our distinguished panel will explore the complex issues of young women and violence that remain in the forefront of public discourse.  For information regarding the event, as well as registration on line:  Click Here to Register.

 The Anni Bergman Parent-infant Training Program is accepting applicants for the 2009-2012 training cycle. The Anni Bergman Parent-infant Training Program began in 1997 and is affiliated with both The New York Freudian Society and the Institute for Psychoanalytic Training and Research.  The program is unique in offering intensive training in parent-infant work to psychoanalysts and advanced psychoanalytic  candidates. Applicants with particular interest and experience in research are also considered, as are applicants interested in only the infant observation year.

The three-year training program includes infant observation, the study of the literature on infancy, infant research, dyadic treatment of infants and their parents, and the application of this knowledge to
clinical work with children and adults.  A three-hour seminar led by the program faculty is held weekly.

Arnie Richards, our Editor-In-Chief, has been hard at work rounding up topic and regional editors in addition to the at-large commentators. (See the Masthead page for a complete list.) As the newly appointed Op-Ed editor I hope to facilitate a lively and informative dialogue.

The typical two-page newspaper spread of Editorials, Letters to the Editor, and Op-Ed essays does not translate literally to the online world of blogging, but here’s what we have in mind. In the blogosphere, Letters to the Editor are replaced by Comments, and comments can continue long after the original posting is made. Remember Yale Kramer’s April 27th “Special Report: Thirty-Three Dead”? 103 comments have been posted on that piece, the latest one on July 17th.

We want to foster more conversations on the widest possible range of subjects as they relate to our field. Because InternationalPsyhoanalysis.net is more of a group blog, “editorials” — defined simply as opinion pieces – will reflect only the opinion of the author. Editorials and op-ed pieces are therefore one in the same. This is your invitation to share your thoughts. All opinions and ideas are welcome and the process is simple — just email your editorials to me (click on the Contact Us page if you’d like to use the email form provided) and I’ll take care of posting them to the blog.
