Imagine constantly worrying about something that you know is not real, or feel a deep anxiety that only repetitive (and often embarrassing) behavior can diminish. Now imagine this happening 24 hours a day for 365 days a year and you can begin to understand what it might be like to suffer from OCD.

On the 2nd of July join us to listen to Cambridge scientist Paula Banca discuss the OCD brain and why psychopaths never suffer from the pathology, and artist Dan Holloway’s performance poetry inspired by his own experience of the disease.

There will be plenty of time for questions so bring all your doubts and join us in an informal Science & Art event
