Breaking the Tug-of-War: What Neuroeconomics Can Gain by Moving Past Competition-Only Models
Popular models of decision-making characterize choice dynamics as a tug-of-war process, where evidence for competing options accumulates until a threshold is reached. While these models capture severa...

If you know anyone that has made a similar experience and is willing to talk on the record to a reporter about this, please get in touch. Thanks :)
Extended post-doc offers to two people recently.
Both had their visas denied, so now those positions remain unfilled.

This is good for America somehow.

Antidepressant treatment shouldn't be a guessing game. RELMED is working towards using advanced research to predict which medication is most likely to help each person along their individual path to recovery.
