Join as we tap into the science behind psychopaths. From society to psychology, you’ll learn what truly makes a psychopath. Followed by Q+A.

Psychopath is a widely used term in society – but do you know what it really means? Psychopathy is a complex and often misunderstood psychological disorder that has long fascinated researchers and the public alike.

In this talk you will learn all about the characteristics and behaviours associated with psychopathy. From exploring the biological, psychological and environmental factors to examining the role of empathy and emotional processing, you’ll gain a deeper understanding of the complexities of psychopaths. We will also raise important questions such as: can a psychopath ever be cured? Are some people destined to be psychopaths? Join us as we explore this fascinating topic.

Doors open at 6.45pm, talk starts at 7.30pm – come down early to grab a good seat!
