A Conceptual Approach toward Complexity in Psychiatric Research - Dr. Kendler

Dr. Kendler will start the webinar with a philosophical/conceptual level discussing integrative pluralism, hoping to show the challenges of this approach but the substantial dangers of hard reductionism and speculative emergentism. Then a review of empirical studies of the actual nature of psychiatric research as it is currently practiced. Next, a demonstration, through a range of empirical studies, of the potential complexities of the joint actions of genetic and environmental factors on psychiatric disease risk and how these might be captured by specific study designs.
