PRESENTATION

Mael LebretonProf. Maël Lebreton is Assistant Professor in Psychology, based at the Swiss Center for Affective Science (CISA), at the University of Geneva (UNIGE), in Switzerland.

His main focus has been the investigation of the computational and biological basis of economic behavior (choices, preferences, beliefs) - a recent disciplinary field called Neuroeconomics. He tries to combine cognitive neurosciences, behavioral economics, and reinforcement learning to provide new hints about our (often irrational) behavior, by associating behavioral experiments, computational models and functional neuroimaging.
