Abstract
New discoveries and developments in almost every area of correlated electron physics were presented at SCES 2016. Here, I provide a personal perspective on some of these developments, highlighting some new ideas in computational physics, discussing the "hidden order" challenges of cuprate and heavy electron superconductors, the mysterious bulk excitations of the topological Kondo insulator SmB$_{6}$ and new progress in research on quantum spin ice, iron based superconductors and quantum criticality.
