morning session will be devoted to
an overview of biopsychosocial
models of BPD, and the experiences
of service users and families of
living with BPD. The afternoon will
examine the evidence for
developmental experiences leading to
BPD and the longitudinal outcome of
BPD.
The second day of the conference

presentations of a wide range of
therapeutic models and models of
service delivery, and open question
time for considering the
applicability of these models both
