European Meeting on Human Fear Conditioning.

 

Human fear conditioning is still going strong! We organize this 16th edition of the European Meeting on Human Fear Conditioning to celebrate our collegial network, and to learn about new successes and failures in our beloved field of research. Indeed, we are not looking for picture-perfect, instagrammable presentations of mind-blowing study results. We honor fair communication of failed replications, interpretational ambiguities, less-than-optimal design choices, and open questions. This is how we can learn most from each other and shape the future of our field through in-depth discussions.

We are delighted to welcome Prof. Dr. em. Alfons Hamm as the keynote speaker at the European Meeting of Human Fear Conditioning (EMHFC) 2025.

His pioneering research on human fear conditioning, psychophysiology, and emotion dysregulation has profoundly shaped our understanding of fear and anxiety disorders. Prof. Hamm’s work bridges fundamental science and clinical application, contributing to innovative treatments for anxiety-related conditions.  

At EMHFC 2025, Prof. Hamm will share his view on decades of fear learning and extinction research, exploring its implications for translational research and clinical practice. His keynote promises to inspire advanced and early career researchers alike, setting the stage for dynamic discussions throughout the conference.
