Our colleague Sara Uccella (an IPA trainee, child neuropsychiatrist, and psychotherapist with special training in early childhood development and sleep physiology) will present “When one body becomes two: Is There a Psychic Subject in Fetal Life?”. This presentation will explore the realm of fetal psychic experiences, emphasizing the role of sleep physiology as a crucial bridge between the developing fetus and the maternal body. It will delve into how fetal consciousness, sensory perception, and early neurodevelopment are influenced by maternal interactions, shaping the foundation for future psychological and cognitive development. Additionally, it will examine the potential long-term effects of prenatal experiences, particularly in relation to psychological disorders that may originate during this critical stage. By understanding these intricate connections, it hopes gain deeper insights into early developmental vulnerabilities and their implications for mental health later in life.

About the AINPSA
The Iberian Neuropsychoanalysis Association (AINPSA) has emerged as the result of a common interest shared by people among psychoanalytical, neuroscientific, and biological backgrounds. Our main goal is to facilitate the study, research and dissemination of Freud’s ideas together with their current developments in neuropsychoanalysis. By holding regular meetings we aim at promoting open dialogue between different disciplines and groups to broaden and deepen our understanding of the body/mind relationship in a dual-aspect monism way. Topics include, but are not limited to, consciousness and free-energy principle, biological underpinnings of the mental, psychosomatology, affective and cognitive neurosciences, etc. We also want to create and develop neuropsychoanalytical projects with practical applications in Health, Arts and Education.
