Dear Decision Sciences Collaborative,
| This month we’re looking forward to a visit from Prof. George Loewenstein (Carnegie Mellon), who will be visiting on Friday September 23 at 2pm in Psychology 35 and speaking on the topic of “A Theory of Boredom and Flow”. There will be a short reception afterwards. Prof. Loewenstein helped to establish the fields of behavioral economics and neuroeconomics, and he has published influential research on countless topics at the intersection of psychology and economics.
