NeurotechEU-Decide: Joint Autumn School on Decision-Making
How do we make decisions – and why do we sometimes fail?
The University of Bonn and Radboud University are pleased to invite applications for the Joint Autumn School on Decision-Making, organised within the NeurotechEU alliance.
This one-week, in-person programme brings together students and researchers from across the NeurotechEU alliance to explore how decisions are shaped – from cognitive models and neural mechanisms to clinical conditions and ethical challenges.
What to expect?
Throughout the week, participants will engage with leading researchers and explore key questions such as:
- How can decisions be modelled and formally described?
- How do neural systems shape choice behaviour?
- How is decision-making altered in clinical conditions?
- What ethical challenges arise in decision-making?
The programme combines state-of-the-art research insights with interactive elements, providing space for discussion, exchange, and interdisciplinary learning.
Who can apply?
We welcome applications from:
- Master’s students
- PhD students
- Postdoctoral researchers
Applicants should be affiliated with a NeurotechEU partner university (i.e., they need to be enrolled at or employed by a NeurotechEU university). Additionally, applicants should have a background in fields such as psychology, neuroscience, computer science, economics, medicine, biomedical engineering, or related disciplines.
