Description:
We are delighted to announce the 10th edition of our International
Summer School in Affective Sciences (ISSAS 2024), which will take
place from July 5th to 12th 2024 at the Château de Bossey, an 18th
century manor house located in an outstanding natural environment
overlooking Lake Geneva and the French Alps.

This year the topic of the summer school, organized by the Swiss
Center for Affective Sciences (CISA), is “EMOTIONAL INTELLIGENCE (EI):
Theory and research on the perception, use and regulation of emotions,
with implications for education, health, and organizations”.

ISSAS represents a very exciting opportunity to address the theme in
an interdisciplinary manner, with contributions from leading scholars
in several areas of psychology and neuroscience. The school will
explore the latest theories, insights, and applications in the field.
It will cover topics such as emotion regulation, the assessment of EI,
the development of emotional competencies across the lifespan, the
interaction between different emotional competencies and clinical
conditions, and the role of EI in organizations.

The list of confirmed invited speakers includes:
1.      Stéphane CÔTÉ (University of Toronto)
2.      Isabel DZIOBEK (Humboldt University of Berlin)
3.      Yasemin ERBAŞ (Tilburg University)
4.      Marina FIORI (Swiss Federal University for Vocational
Education and Training)
5.      John “Jack” MAYER (University of New Hampshire)
6.      Moïra MIKOLAJCZAK (Catholic University of Leuven)
7.      Susanne SCHEIBE (University of Groningen)
8.      Klaus SCHERER (University of Geneva)
9.      Astrid SCHÜTZ (Bamberg University)
10.     Maya TAMIR (The Hebrew University of Jerusalem)

The scientific program for 2024 comprises plenary lectures, workshops
and group work in which the students will design an interdisciplinary
research project that will be presented and discussed on the last day.

The varied program and its hands-on orientation make ISSAS 2024 highly
attractive to young researchers from different disciplines. In
addition, they will enjoy an opportunity to form strong professional
ties with each other, as well as with the invited faculty members.
They can use these contacts to build a substantial scientific network
even at an early stage in their careers.

We invite applications form young researchers in any field interested
in the topic. The application procedure and more information about the
