World
meeting of the University professoriate Presented in Rome Sanitade.com
Among the several secondary initiatives of the Holy Year celebration,
the highest scientific content has been the World meeting of the University
professoriate, held from September 3rd to 10th.
The
meeting program was very variegated but regarding medicine the most
important was, since the goodness of speakers and the importance of
themes, the three days devoted to the “Mass media communications pathophysiology“,
hosted at the Collegio De Merode in Piazza di Spagna.
The
meeting organized by professor Mastronardi
- of the Psychiatric Sciences Department
-
in association with Leadership Medica that have been offering over years
large space to this matter.
Summarizing,
the pathophysiology in mass communication is a discipline dealing with
degenerative processes that, social and single level take place by the
means of the several communication ways on our disposal.
A classic example of mass media communications pathophysiology is the
serial killer, whose activity rather often is influenced by pictures
that turn killers in heroes, even if negative.
George B. Palermo, criminologist of the University of the Wisconsin,
talked about that.
He’s author of psychiatric reports about the most famous serial killer.
Very suggestive was the historical recall entrusted to professor Baima
Ballone and Dr. Aristide Malnati.
Ballone, teacher at the University of Turin and top student of the Shroud
of Turin, offered a brilliant proof of forensic psychiatry applied to
the remote past.
On his side Malnati, young archaeologist of the staff of Strasbourg
and our collaborator, summed up for the attendance the meaning of his
interpretation of the “fragment Qumran”, a little finding coming from
a papyrus found in a territory currently belonging to Israel.
