Curiosity, Creativity and Complexity Conference @ Jerome L. Greene Science Center (9th Floor Lecture Hall)
May 23 – May 25 all-day

How does the brain cope with Complexity? How do we make decisions when confronted with practically infinite streams of information?

The conference showcases cutting edge research on these questions in Neuroscience and Psychology (neural mechanisms of cognitive control, exploration, decision-making, information demand, memory and creativity), Computer Science (artificial intelligence of curiosity and intrinsic motivation) and Economics (decision making and information demand). Alongside formal presentations, the conference will encourage ample interactions among faculty, students and postdocs through informal discussions and poster presentations.

Submissions for poster presentations and travel awards are due February 15, 2023. Please visit the call for submissions for complete requirements.
