This two-day symposium focuses on innovative technologies in psychopathology, highlighting their application in understanding and addressing mental health and behavior change. The program includes presentations on virtual reality (VR) for social anxiety and pain management, artificial intelligence (AI) as a research tool, and mobile interventions for emotion regulation. Workshops will provide hands-on experience with VR applications and AI-driven tools, offering a collaborative environment for discussions and exploration of these emerging methodologies.
