The DGPPN Congress 2016 will address these complex interactions and will initiate a comprehensive stocktaking with its theme “Mind – Person – Society”. Where is psychiatry and psychotherapy today? What is expected of it? What can it achieve? What not? And what impulses can be expected from medical research? National and international experts from the sciences, politics and society will look closely at these complex topics and examine them from different perspectives. You can look forward to renowned keynote speakers, interdisciplinary symposia, interactive discussion forums and an exciting supporting programme.
