The Graduate Paper Salon is an informal event that allows analysts to present their graduation papers to the SFCP community for discussion. The idea of a salon is meant to suggest a relaxed setting to discuss current ideas—in this case, brought to us by recent graduates. For our first Salon, we are pleased and proud to welcome the SFCP community to hear a paper by Madeleine Lansky entitled “Supporting Frontline Workers with Down-to-Earth Psychoanalytic Concepts: Compost Happens”. We will also see her video entitled “Compost Happens”. Henry Markman will moderate the discussion after her presentation, in which members can take up the relevant issues raised in her evocative paper.
Madeleine is a recent graduate from SFCP who received the prestigious Ernst and Gertrude Ticho award this year from the American Psychoanalytic Association. The award recognizes and fosters the work of a promising early-career psychoanalyst who has contributed to the field through teaching, writing, research, and applied and/or clinical work. Her paper and video will also be presented at the next APsA meeting, where she will receive her award.
We hope this first Salon will begin a tradition of publicly acknowledging and seriously discussing the creative contributions of graduates and graduates-to-be.
