About Conference

Sessions & Tracks

Track 1: Mental Health and Psychiatry

Mental health is the condition of thriving where individuals recognize their capabilities, manage everyday stressors, maintain productivity, and actively engage in their communities. It encompasses emotional, psychological, and social well-being, shaping thoughts, emotions, and behaviours. Mental health involves the ability to manage emotions, cope with challenges, maintain healthy relationships, and make positive contributions to society. It is essential for overall health and resilience.

Psychiatry is a branch of medicine focused on the diagnosis, treatment, and prevention of mental, emotional, and behavioural disorders. Psychiatrists are medical doctors who specialize in the assessment and management of psychiatric conditions. It encompasses a broad range of disorders, including mood disorders (such as depression and bipolar disorder), anxiety disorders, psychotic disorders (such as schizophrenia), substance use disorders, neurodevelopmental disorders (such as autism spectrum disorder), and personality disorders.

Track 2: Behavioural health treatment and services

For those with psychological wellness disorders, improvements in the variety of evidence-based medications, treatments, and psychosocial services, such as mental restoration, housing, business support, and companion bolster, have made wellness and recovery a possibility. An important step in the healing process is choosing the right medication and support combination for you. Choosing a course of treatment for emotional wellness disorders will vary from person to person. In fact, even people with comparable analyses will have different interactions, needs, desires, and therapeutic goals. There isn't a single, universal course of treatment.

• Behavioural therapy
• Interpersonal therapy
• Supportive psychotherapy

Track 3: Neuro developmental disorders

Organic or Neuropsychiatry Psychiatry is a branch of medicine that deals with mental issues that might be linked to diseases of the sensory system. In any event, the subjects of neuropsychology and conduct nervous system science are closely related to neuropsychiatry, which is a growing specialist of psychiatry. Neurodevelopmental diseases obstruct the growth and development of the brain or, sometimes, the focused sensory system. A more limited use of the phrase refers to a mental health issue that affects memory, learning ability, discretion, and feeling, and that arises as a person develops and produces.

• Attention deficit hyperactivity disorder
• Nonverbal learning disorder
• Pervasive developmental disorders

Track 4: Behavioural addiction and neuropsychology

Neuropsychology is a branch of brain science that examines how the cerebrum and the rest of the sensory system relate to a person's judgement and behaviour. Experts in this field of brain science frequently focus on the implications of mental injuries or illnesses for conduct and psychological abilities. Behavioural addictions have similar effects to drug addictions on relationships, which are frequently ignored for the habit-forming behaviour, undermining trust and pressuring partners and other family to conceal and make up for problems caused by the fixation.

• Non-substance-related behaviour
• Cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT)
• Biomolecular mechanisms

Track 5: Psychotherapy & Psychology

Psychology is the study of the mind and behaviour. Psychology involves looking into conscious and unconscious events. Analysts also seek an understanding of the novel characteristics of minds, linking the field to neuroscience. Therapists strive to understand the behaviour of both individuals and groups, much like sociologists do. The use of psychological techniques, especially when they are centred on regular one-on-one interactions with children, to assist someone in changing their behaviour and successfully overcoming problems. The goals of psychotherapy include enhancing a person's prosperity and psychological wellness, identifying or reducing convictions, impulses, emotions, or feelings, and enhancing relationships and social skills.

• Personal interaction
• Pseudoscience
• Somatotherapy

Track 6: Paediatric & Adolescent Psychiatry

The young person and teen A therapist who specialises in the investigation and treatment of problems with reasoning, emotion, or possibly harmful conduct affecting children, teenagers, and their families deals with psychiatry. A child and adolescent therapist provides families the benefits of clinical education, the therapeutic norms of professional ethics, and the clinical duty to give thorough thought. It investigates the biopsychosocial variables that affect how things go, how mental issues develop, and how treatments respond to various intercessions. Psychotherapy and maybe medications are the main treatments used by child and adolescent specialists to address mental health disorders in the paediatric population.

• Autism spectrum disorder
• Conduct disorder
• Oppositional defiant disorder

Track 7: OCD & Schizophrenia

Schizophrenia is a serious mental illness characterised by odd social behaviour and difficulty distinguishing between what is real and what is not. The majority of those who have schizophrenia also have obsessive-compulsive symptoms. The diagnostic standards for obsessive-compulsive disorder are met by about 12% of people. OCD and schizophrenia are completely unrelated to one another in terms of their causes and symptoms, but they do have some characteristics in common that make some people more vulnerable to developing both disorders.

• Intrusive thoughts
• Streptococcal infections
• Generalized anxiety disorders

Track 8: Psychoanalytic Theories & Evolutionary Psychology

According to evolutionary brain research and developmental psychiatry, psychological issues are caused by the ineffective activity of mental modules that were designed to function under tribal physical or social settings but not necessarily under modern ones. Related species have been discovered to have social abnormalities that mirror human dysfunctional behaviour. Social conflicts and internal unrest are at the centre of psychoanalytic beliefs. These theories have been supported as explanations for mental health problems. This claim focuses on how unconscious forces affect people's behaviour.

• Psychological adaptations
• Criticism of evolutionary psychology
• Computational theory of mind

Track 9: Psychosomatic Medicine

A recently licenced subspecialty of psychiatry is psychosomatic medicine. It is sometimes referred to as liaison-consultation psychiatry. It offers information, training, and practise regarding the connection between mental and physical sickness. This field is involved in the diagnosis, treatment, and study of problems in this specific area. As a result, it links psychiatry to other fields of medicine so that psychiatrists can talk about treating patients with psychosomatic dysfunction.

• Somatoform disorders
• Irritable bowel syndrome
• Psychoneuroimmunology

 Track 10: Neurophysiology and Neuro-Oncology

The physiology of the nervous system is concerned with the investigation of the function of the peripheral and central nervous system. It is a business that also includes neuroscience. To know the function, both neuron physiology and neuroscience are connected to each other. Neuro-Oncology is a study involving the brain and spinal cord, which treats many dangerous and fatal problems such as ependymoma, pontine glioma and brain stem tumors. Among malignant brain cancers, gyloblastoma multiform and astrocytoma are the worst. In such cases, untreated survival usually has a chance of survival for only a few months, and survival with current radiation and chemotherapy treatments can extend that time from one year to one year.

• Neural Networking
• Neuroimaging
• Biomolecular therapies in Neural regeneration

Track 11: Adult and Geriatric Psychiatry

The majority of mental health issues are bodily biological processes that our bodies use to function. Our emotions, thoughts, and actions can all be affected by these circumstances. Everybody experiences emotions like grief, anxiety, and rage, but if those emotions persist for a while, they may start to interfere with our daily life. The interference with our daily routines is a clue that the symptoms might respond well to treatment. Frequently, people make the mistake of believing that mental health illnesses are an inherent part of life and are unaware that they have a condition that can be addressed. People worry that their illnesses are a result of their own actions or think that a weakness or flaw in their character is to blame for the symptoms.

• Psychiatry of old age
• Alzheimer's disease
• Neurological examinations

Track 12: Psychosomatic Disorders

Psychosomatic disorders are illnesses that affect both the body and the mind. It is believed that certain medical conditions are especially vulnerable to being exacerbated by emotional problems like stress and anxiety. How severe a physical illness is at any one time depends on your mental condition. For a psychosomatic condition, Cognitive Behaviour Therapy (CBT) is frequently the preferred course of treatment. As individuals obtain a deeper comprehension of their condition or situation, this therapy assists patients in learning new coping mechanisms and problem-solving techniques. A comprehensive, interdisciplinary framework for: assessing psychological issues affecting individual vulnerability as well as the course and outcome of illness; taking bio-psychosocial factors into account when providing patient care; and integrating specialised interventions can be considered psychosomatic medicine.

• Consultation-liaison psychiatry
• Behavioural factors
• Internal medicine

Track 13: Mental Disorders and Rehabilitation

People who still struggle to deal with daily life or get along with others will receive assistance and support from this. It will work to restore your confidence, help you deal with issues, and enable you to live as independently as possible. You might need to spend some time in a specialised rehabilitation service instead of being discharged home due to the challenges of managing a longer-term mental health illness.

• Psych social rehabilitation
• Vocational rehabilitation
• Rehabilitation counsellors

Track 14: Mental Health Nursing

The chosen position of a nurse who has demonstrated significant authority in emotional wellness and cares for people of any age with dysfunctional behaviour or mental trouble, such as schizophrenia, bipolar disorder, psychosis, depression, dementia, and other conditions, is known as mental nursing or psychological well-being nursing. Attendants have specialised training in mental treatments, putting together a remedial organisation, controlling testing procedures, and organising mental solutions. In many countries, a mental health nurse must complete a four-year nursing programme in order to become a plainly enrolled nurse (RN) and have experience in emotional wellbeing.

• Psychological therapies
• Challenging behaviour
• Electroconvulsive therapy

Track 15: Psychopharmacology & Pharmacotherapy

The use of drugs to treat a disease or ailment is known as pharmacotherapy. Along with other therapies like Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT) or 12-Step Facilitation, pharmacotherapy is frequently employed. Pharmacotherapy's objectives are to lower morbidity and avoid problems.

The field of psychopharmacology investigates how drugs are used to treat mental illnesses. Due to the complexity of this topic, ongoing research is necessary to stay up to date with new developments. According to psychopharmacology, medications can be used to treat mental health issues. Most mental health disorders can be helped by medications. While some individuals just receive drug treatment, others also receive therapy or other forms of care.

• Neuropsychopharmacology
• Psychoactive properties
• Chemical synthesis

Track 16: Psychoanalytic Theories

According to evolutionary brain research and developmental psychiatry, psychological issues are caused by the ineffective activity of mental modules that were designed to function under tribal physical or social settings but not necessarily under modern ones. Related species have been discovered to have social abnormalities that mirror human dysfunctional behaviour. Social conflicts and internal unrest are at the centre of psychoanalytic beliefs. These theories have been supported as explanations for mental health problems. This claim focuses on how unconscious forces affect people's behaviour.

• Personality development
• Psychoanalysis
• Neo-analytic theory

Track 17: Behavioural Health Strengthening

The current financial crisis is expected to have a negative impact on emotional health, which could increase the suicide and alcohol-related mortality rates in affected countries. The effects of the financial crisis on wellbeing may be less clear in nations with stronger social safety nets. According to research, various arrangement measures can balance out the negative impact of the financial emergency on one's emotional well-being.

• Interpersonal relationships
• Intergenerational dependence
• Psychological resilience

Track 18: Stress and Anxiety

The vast majority occasionally experience stress and anxiety. Stress is any demand made of your physical or mental faculties. People may say they feel focused when they are given a variety of competing requests. An event that makes you feel confused or anxious can cause the focused emotion to arise. Anxiety, stress, or unease is all examples of tension. It can be a reaction to stress or it can occur in people who are unable to identify significant stressors in their lives.

• Generalized anxiety disorder
• Positive psychology
• Obsessive compulsive disorder

Track 19: Depression & Bipolar Disorders

In everyday life, the word "Depression" can refer to a variety of topics. The marvel proves to be challenging to understand because the word is used to describe both a mental condition and a feeling. "Wretchedness" may refer to a momentary feeling of unhappiness that is a by-product of everyday disappointments, exhaustion, hopelessness, and sorrow. Since these sensations often allow people to create and change, no treatment is anticipated to address them. Sometimes the term "dejection" refers to a discouraged outlook that can last for a few days or even months but doesn't accompany other side effects that would make living more difficult.

Bipolar confusion, also known as hyper depressive illness, is a mental condition that results in erratic changes in mood, energy, activity levels, and the ability to execute daily tasks. There are four main types of bipolar disorder, and each one causes noticeable changes in mood, energy, and mobility. These temperaments range from incredibly exuberant, stimulated, and "up" moments (known as hyper scenes) to incredibly depressing, "down," or miserable moments. Hypomanic scenarios are less severe hyper episodes.

• Manic depression
• Childhood abuse
• Mood stabilizers
• Behavioural disorder
• Natural disasters

Track 20: Telepsychiatry

Telepsychiatry is a process that employs a telecommunications tool to provide mental health care to persons who are geographically far from a psychiatrist and who feel more comfortable at home. Along with convenience and improved accessibility, telepsychiatry may provide a variety of advantages. The advantages and realities of telepsychiatry are examined in this essay. Patients can receive a variety of healthcare services through telemedicine by using technology, which is often video-based. Through telepsychiatry, psychiatrists can communicate with patients directly over the phone or using video conferencing tools. Some people decide to pay for recordings of their medical records.

• Psychiatric assessment
• Home-based telepsychiatry
• Forensic telepsychiatry

Track 21: Epigenetics of Depression

Natural and inherited factors have a significant impact on major depressive illness. These elements include epigenetic modification of the genome, which involves a continuous change in quality expression without a modification of the actual DNA sequence. Although an individual is typically defenceless during childhood, hereditary and natural factors can have long-lasting effects on the genome. Methylation is one epigenetic factor that may serve as an indicator of how effective a given antidepressant treatment is. Antidepressants are currently used to reduce global DNA methylation levels and to calm people's moods.

• Major depressive disorder
• Gene expression
• Brain-derived neurotrophic factor
