Join us for a friendly online discussion about topics in decision science. These discussions are open to anyone broadly interested in decision sciences and are opportunities to meet other people who are also interested in decision sciences with whom to playfully and respectfully discuss relevant ideas, study material, research, applications, career matters, and news.
Our meetings aim to:
- Explore and learn decision science together
- Support personal and professional growth
- Network professionally and make new friends
- Enjoy good company and have fun
Here's an illustrative selection of talks about relevant topics we might discuss:
- Strategic Decisions Group - Decision Science for Data Scientists
- Paul Glimcher - Neuroeconomics and the Future of the Decision Sciences
- Warren B. Powell - Universal Framework for Sequential Decision Analytics
- Milind Tambe - AI & Multiagent Systems Research for Social Good
- Ralph Keeney - Value-focused Thinking and Decisions
- Eric Maskin - An Introduction to Mechanism Design
We might also discuss interesting and relevant Stanford Encyclopedia of Philosophy articles, like the following articles:
- Decision Theory
- Game Theory
- Social Choice Theory
- Practical Reason
- Philosophy of Statistics
- Philosophy of Economics
Or we might discuss interesting review papers like the following:
- Lerner, J. S., Li, Y., Valdesolo, P., & Kassam, K. S. (2015). Emotion and decision making. Annual review of psychology.
- Cao, L., Yang, Q., & Yu, P. S. (2021). Data science and AI in FinTech: An overview. International Journal of Data Science and Analytics
- Lieder, F., & Griffiths, T. L. (2020). Resource-rational analysis: Understanding human cognition as the optimal use of limited computational resources. Behavioral and brain sciences.
The above lists aren't exhaustive. We've discussed other topics too. Please feel free to suggest decision science related topics, and to share decision science talks and papers that you'd like us to discuss.
