Description
T Insel asks where psychiatry is heading in a 2026 lecture. Fifty years of change are reviewed first. The field moved as neuroscience, cognitive science, and medicine advanced.
Insel notes the old joke that psychiatry went from brainless to mindless. He argues the real story is steady scientific progress. The hard task now is fitting rich biology to single patients. Three near-term openings are proposed. AI is presented as a possible turning point, like genetics was for cancer care. Readers get a senior view of what the next phase of the field may look like.
