Lacan in Scotland<\/strong> flags and provides opportunities for engaging with Lacanian psychoanalysis and related theories in Scotland. It aims to bring together scholars, practitioners, researchers, students and the public involved or interested in psychoanalysis. By doing so, we are committed to promoting psychoanalysis and making it accessible in Scotland\/North of England and around the world.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n

\n

We run monthly seminars in Edinburgh (now online on Zoom) where prominent as well as new scholars and clinicians all over the world present on pertinent topics in relation to Lacanian psychoanalysis and related theories, and engage in discussions.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n
