PRESENTATION:
The Fourth Symposium on Biology of Decision Making will take place on 
May 26-28, 2014 at the Institut du Cerveau et de la Moelle, Paris, 
France, with a satellite day at Ecole Normale Supérieure, Paris, France. 
The objective of this three day symposium is to gather people from 
different research fields with different approaches (economics, 
ethology, psychiatry, neural and computational approaches) to 
decision-making. The symposium will be a single-track, will last for 3 
days and will include 6 sessions:
(#1) Who is making decisions? Cortex or basal ganglia;
(#2) New computational approaches to decision-making;
(#3) A new player in decision-making: the hippocampus;
(#4) Neuromodulation of decision-making;
(#5) Maladaptive decisions in clinical conditions;
(#6) Who is more rational? Decision making across species.
