Abstract

Precision psychiatry aspires to match treatment decisions to individual patients on the basis of biomarkers that identify the processes underlying their disorder. Tabb and Lemoine (2021) argue that this ambition remains out of reach for psychiatry. Constant's (2025, forthcoming) account of personomics shows that person-level factors can serve as precision markers, but leaves open how those factors are dynamically organized and how that organization can inform intervention. I argue that the complex systems approach addresses this gap, offering a more helpful characterization of what precision in psychiatry could look like by treating disorders as dynamic patterns that evolve over time.
