Abstract

NeuroIS has emerged as a research field in the Information Systems (IS) discipline over the past decade. Since the inaugural NeuroIS Retreat in 2009, 166 individuals participated at this annual academic conference to discuss research and development projects at the nexus of IS and neuroscience research. Motivated by the fact that the NeuroIS Retreat celebrates its 10-year anniversary in 2018, we invited all 166 former participants of the NeuroIS Retreat to state their opinions in an online survey on the development of the field and its future. In this paper, we summarize the answers of N = 60 respondents regarding NeuroIS topics and methods.
