It seems only months since we celebrated Eric’s Masters defense (it was), but now we welcome him back to the lab in his new role of PhD candidate! Eric’s path will take a rather unique trajectory over the next 6 years, combining research into how reputations and reputation systems impact decision-making with the teaching of statistics and research methods at BSI.
Welcome to the lab, Virag! Virag will conduct her CNS Research Masters project in the lab over the coming year, examining the role of automatic and controlled processes in assessments of trust.
