It is with great PANIC that we note and communicate the passing of Jaak Panksepp.
Jaak was a pioneer in neuroscience, arguing for the importance of the subcortical and the ‘affective’ in neuroscience when others were and sometimes are still lost in the narrow lenses of behaviourism. His views have influenced our work on primary emotions, social relating, oxytocin, attachment, consciousness, pain and affective touch. His contributions to the field of Neuropsychoanalysis are simply irreplaceable. Importantly to this lab, he was a generous and wise mentor to more junior scientists, the kind of person you wanted to meet in conferences and get his perspective on your life as much as you wanted to tell him about your science. The kind of person who CARED and wanted to save you the FEAR of science.
His wife and writer Anesa Miller has been posting on their website to keep his friends and colleagues informed of his recent health struggles.
She poignantly wrote today: “His color is gone, his breath is gone, his pain is gone. Still, I just can’t be sure”.

For all of us that SEEK to follow in tiny steps the wide neuroscientific path Jaak set out for us, we will never be sure. No matter how far affective neuroscience and neuropsychoanalysis will go, Jaak will always be there holding our hand, tickling our rats, refusing to apologise for CARE, for LUST, for RAGE and perhaps most importantly for PLAY.
