馬克·威廉姆斯(Mark Williams)為《正念教師必備資源》(Essential Resources for Mindfulness Teachers)寫了序言，他在班戈大學(Bangor University)成立了正念研究與實踐中心(Centre for Mindfulness Research and Practice)。2002年離開班戈大學，到牛津大學(Oxford University)任職。

Mark Williams wrote the foreword for ‘Essential Resources for Mindfulness Teachers’, and founded the Centre for Mindfulness Research and Practice at Bangor University before he left in 2002 to take up a position at Oxford University. 

作為一名臨床研究科學家，Mark開創了一個全新的研究領域，其中包括將正念為基礎的項目與認知科學相結合。在這次演講中，馬克將被邀請回顧他一生在臨床心理學領域的工作。是什麼線索導致了他對抑鬱和自殺的關注?這如何導向MBCT的發展? 他的同事們對於引入正念作為預防憂鬱復發的可能方法有何反應? 在個人城面是如何把工作方向帶往正念的?

As a clinical research scientist Mark pioneered the development of a whole new field of inquiry involving the integration of mindfulness-based approaches with cognitive science.  During this talk Mark will be invited to reflect back on his life’s work in the field of Clinical Psychology. What were the threads that led to his focus on depression and suidicality? How did this evolve towards the development of MBCT? How did the field and his colleagues respond to the introduction of mindfulness as a potential methodology for depression prevention? How was it for him personally to take his work in the direction of mindfulness? 

在MBCT首次試驗發表後的二十多年裡，基於正念的研究和實踐領域已經成倍地擴大了——當回顧這些發展時，這一系列工作的強項和弱點是什麼?展望下一階段的發展，潛在的機會和威脅又是什麼?

Over twenty years on from the publication of the first trial of MBCT, the field of mindfulness-based research and practice has expanded  exponentially – as he looks back at these developments, what does he see as the strengths and weaknesses of this body of work? Looking forward to the next phase of development, what are the potential opportunities and threats?
