< MastersnIn@aol.com >
About:

The Masterson Institute evolved from the work of the Masterson Group and was established in 1977 to teach the developmental self and objects relations theory to the psychoanalytic psychotherapy of Disorders of the Self (formerly the Personality Disorders). The Institute became an umbrella for teaching this approach through conferences, lectures, published texts and cassette lectures with a faculty personally trained and supervised by Dr. Masterson. The Society of the Masterson Institute was concurrently established to offer its members study groups and supervision, on-site and by telephone.

These activities in time created a further demand for more intensive, in-depth training which resulted in the establishment of formal three-year part-time postgraduate certificate programs in New York (1986) and San Francisco (1987). Special certificate programs were also begun in Spokane, Washington and Copenhagen, Denmark (1987), and another is planned for Montreal, Canada in the fall of 1997. The current faculty of the east and west coasts has been enlarged to include alumni of the postgraduate training program after being supervised by Dr. Masterson for an extended period.

Detail:
Genetic Disposition and Patient-Reported Quality of Life Outcomes

( See the meeting's Web pages.)

Thursday, February 26, 2009 through Thursday, February 26, 2009

Flag of MN   Rochester, Minnesota, USA  (Flag of MN)

This is sponsored by: Mayo Clinic
School of Continuing Medical Education



EVENT DESCRIPTION:

Much progress has been made in recent years into the impact of genetics on cancer and its treatment. Advances have also been made in finding ways to incorporate the patients' subjective experience into clinical research. Indeed, validated quality-of-life instruments are now available and empirical evidence about disease and treatment outcomes has been collected for most disease sites and treatment modalities.

Perhaps the most provocative finding is that quality of life can be superior to clinical assessments for predicting cancer patients' survival. Recent data provided preliminary evidence that the genetic disposition of cancer patients may impact their quality of life. This course will explore the genetic disposition of quality of life in cancer patients by reviewing the evidence and setting a research agenda for identifying potential genes and genetic variants for quality of life.
