Course Description:

The biweekly Neuroeconomics Seminar listed above serves as the focus for the Neuroeconomics graduate seminar course. The course meets every week during the semester. On the week prior to each of the listed seminars by an invited speaker graduate students and post-docs present background papers relevent to the ensuing invited presentation. In addition, graduate students taking the course for credit write a paper, derived from their presentation, which suggests an original avenue of Neuroeconomic research.

Neuroeconomics can be enrolled in either as:

"SEMINAR IN NEUROECONOMICS" (G80.3410001 Neural Science)

or as "ECONOMICS & PSYCHOLOGY" (G31.3001.006 Economics)
