Complexity in Psychopathology: One Size Does Not Fit AllNew York City, NYHeterogeneity and variability in clinical presentation, cognition, and biological measures are well-known in psychiatry research, but these issues are typically seen as confounds. This complexity is increasingly standing in the way of further advances and the development of new treatments. In addition, recent debates around DSM-5, RDoC, HiTOP, clinical staging, and other approaches to psychopathology indicate that our best hope for meaningful progress is to examine complexity as a feature in itself. With this background, the 2023 meeting focused on “Complexity in Psychopathology”. Where attendees explored several avenues of current research to turn complexity into an opportunity to understand better and treat psychopathology. This meeting featured speakers describing applications of complexity principles to the study of the brain and behavior. There were also opportunities to discuss how brain biology and psychopathology interact and mold one another dynamically and how complexity could help us understand this process. Keynote Talks:
