Who we are, what we do.

The Social Decision Lab is discovering how we decide to help, avoid, and learn from others.

We also focus on understanding the fundamental effects of monoamines (dopamine and serotonin) on learning and choice.

Our aim is to contribute to the scientific and popular understanding of the brain, improve policy, and help people make better choices.

We are currently we are looking at:
  • social influence in decision-making
  • how and why we value others
  • the social ingredients for collective social change
  • neural models of complex social decisions
  • the pharmacology of interoception
  • unconscious reward learning
  • implications of all of the above in mental health disorders
