We are happy to invite you to the first Berlin Decision Workshop, “Decision Neuroscience – From Neurons to Societies”, which we will be hosting at the Max Planck Institute for Human Development in Berlin, September 23-25, 2010. The idea is to bridge the gap between Economics, Psychology of Emotion, Computational Neuroscience, (Neuro-)biology, Cognitive Neuroscience, Psychiatry, and Molecular Genetics. We will have six sessions centering on hot topics in decision neuroscience. One of the goals of our workshop is to make sure that all invited participants will have ample opportunity to contribute actively. We are looking forward to having lively discussions during the sessions. The list of confirmed speakers so far includes: Hans Breiter, Rafal Bogacz, Andrew Caplin, Roshan Cools, Ray Dolan, Lesley Fellows, Birte Forstmann, Gerd Gigerenzer, Joshua Gold, Kevin Laland, Burkhard Pleger, Antonio Rangel, Alan Sanfey, Geoff Schoenbaum, and Philippe Tobler. Participants are welcome to submit abstracts for poster presentation that will take place throughout the workshop: http://www.decisionneuroscience.de/abstract-submission/ Please send in your bios, title, and abstract no later than August, 10, 2010 to Koosje Roeper or Heidi Nassimi: sekheekeren@mpib-berlin.mpg.de .
