Achiel’s paper on memory models for novel decision-making has been accepted for publication in Cognitive Psychology. This paper proposes a mechanistic model of how we sift through previous episodic memories to make decisions about new, unfamiliar, choice options. See the publication tab for more information.
Sarah Vahed (PhD candidate) was recently invited to give a presentation on her research on the neuroscience of (digital) justice at Leiden University. The talk formed part of an event held by the Empirical Legal Studies Academy of the Netherlands for which Sarah recently received a research grant. During the talk she shared findings from her PhD research, some exciting upcoming projects and her perspective on the promises and perils of conducting cross-disciplinary research as an early-career researcher. It was a really informative exchange to a multidisciplinary audience of researchers interested in using scientific means to address important societal questions.
Sarah was recently invited to give a talk at Radboud University's Faculty of Law departmental seminar, where she presented findings from her PhD and engaged in a productive discussion on the implications of decision neuroscience for society, law and policy. Her presentation sparked a thoughtful exchange on how decision neuroscience can inform legal frameworks and decision-making processes. It also opened up opportunities for future multidisciplinary collaborations, and we look forward to continuing these conversations.
