 There also is increasing contact between neuroscience and psychologically oriented investigations (Bechtel 2008, Boogerd et al. 2002, Craver 2007, Sullivan 2016). A potential prospect related to the contact between molecular neurobiology and psychology is the injection of epistemic considerations into philosophy of mind discussions (Godfrey-Smith 2008). More attention to issues of representation, decomposition, and temporality could alter the nature of these debates. At the same time, a more explicit evaluation of metaphysical components imported from philosophy of mind into philosophy of biology is warranted. Mediated by the work of Jaegwon Kim, Rosenberg incorporated the concept of supervenience from Davidson four decades ago (Rosenberg  1978).[17]  Rosenberg subsequently redeployed Kim’s (1998) causal exclusion argument in support of reductionism in biology (Rosenberg 2006; cf. Eronen 2011, Sachse 2007). Discussions of the status of downward causation and realization in biological systems are relevant for a better understanding of the intersection between epistemological and metaphysical components of reduction (Craver and Bechtel 2007, Love 2012, Robinson 2005, Wilson and Craver 2007). For example, an interest in the context sensitivity of realization in philosophy of mind (Wilson 2004, ch. 6) invokes issues pertaining to the context objection, individuation, temporality (especially causation versus constitution), and intrinsicality. These analyses can then be imported into biological contexts to argue for or against particular aspects of reductionism (see, e.g., Wilson 2005).
