Life and work

Joseph Sandler comes from a Jewish family. He completed his master's degree in psychology already with 19 years at the University of Cape Town. He emigrated to the UK in order - at age 23 - to finalize his doctorate at the London University. After that, he began his medical studies at University College London and his training analysis first at Willie Hoffer, then at his wife Hedwig Hoffer. Initially he specialized in child psychiatry.

The Freud Memorial Chair in Psychoanalysis is a special chair because it is only staffed with outstanding representatives of the discipline at the invitation. The first chair holder was Joseph Sandler and he sat the establishment of a Psychoanalysis Unit at UCL through to better interlink psychoanalysis and academia. His successor, Peter Fonagy praised in both Sandler's Obituary clinical use, as well as his passion as a teacher. He had translated his quiet and unobtrusive way of the concepts of biology in the 19th century in the language of the relationships of the 20th century.
