The Rotman 2016 Annual Conference: Rethinking the Taxonomy of Psychology was held on April 15 – 17, 2016, in London, Ontario. Advances in cognitive neuroscience, including neuroimaging techniques, have challenged the conceptual foundations of psychology. Participants in this interdisciplinary workshop investigated questions at the intersection of philosophy, psychology, and neuroscience raised by the emerging data in this field. A paper archive and further details on the workshop can be accessed on the Rethinking the Taxonomy of Psychology website.

A video playlist of the workshop has been created on the Rotman Institute YouTube Channel. Videos of three speakers have been uploaded thus far — Michael Anderson, Kristen Lindquist, and Robyn Bluhm. Remaining videos from the workshop will be available soon.
