 esentation will discuss three lines of recent work in psychiatric anthropo
 logy and cultural psychiatry: (1) Phenomenological psychiatry\, cognitive 
 science and ethnographic research can inform experience-near ethnographic 
 research that aims to capture cultural variations in individuals’ illness 
 experience. This work has led to the development of the McGill Illness Nar
 rative Interview and the Cultural Formulation Interview in DSM-5. (2) Crit
 ical neuroscience analyses of the social interests and assumptions of curr
 ent production and translation of biological knowledge in psychiatry. This
  has produced a critique of the NIMH RDoC program with implications for th
 e place of ethnography in future psychiatric research. (3) Efforts to inte
 grate ethnographic research in global mental health research lay bare some
  of the epistemological assumptions and political-economic constraints in 
 current practice. Taken together\, this work shows the importance of anthr
 opology for psychiatry and the opportunities for advancing anthropological
  theory and application through studying mental health problems and respon
 ses.\n\n \n\nLunch/refreshments will be provided.\n\n\n	Centre for Society\
