    Phenylketonuria & Child Development

    This episode explores Phenylketonuria & Child Development, with our guest Dr. Adele Diamond. We discuss her previous discoveries regarding the disease PKU, research on children with ADHD, as well as her current work exploring three core executive functions.  Episode Notes: Piaget's A-not-B task was developed in 1935, the same year as the delayed response task was developed. The main difference between these tasks is that in delayed response, the reward that is hidden on each trial is randomly determined, whereas in A-not-B the reward is always hidden on the same side until the participant is correct twice in a row, then the hiding place is switched to the other side. Dr. Diamond additionally would like to add that there is a connection between her PKU work and ADHD work, because both are based on the dopamine system in the prefrontal cortex having unique properties. In PKU, it is that the PFC dopamine systems turn over dopamine at a faster rate. In ADHD, the PFC dopamine system has a dearth of the dopamine transporter.  For more information on the Piaget A-not-B task, delayed response task, and PKU (pdf) For information on special properties of the PFC dopamine system underlying her PKU and ADHD work: For Neuroscientists: (pdf); For the General Public: (pdf)

    Habits

    This episode explores Habits with our guest, Dr. Colin Camerer. We discuss the intersection of neuroscience and economics, neural 'autopilot', and why this is the golden age of social science.  Professor Colin F. Camerer is the Robert Kirby Professor of Behavioral Finance and Economics at the California Institute of Technology, where he teaches cognitive psychology and economics. Professor Camerer earned a Bachelors degree in quantitative studies from Johns Hopkins, a MBA in finance, and a Ph.D. in decision theory from the University of Chicago Graduate School of Business. Before coming to Caltech in 1994, Dr. Camerer worked at the Kellogg, Wharton, and University of Chicago business schools. He studies both behavioral and experimental economics.

    Split-Second Perception

    This episode explores Split-Second Perception with our guest, Dr. Jon Freeman. We discuss the use of his software MouseTracker to investigate implicit biases, how these biases affect our perception of others, and what can be done to mitigate them.  Jon Freeman is an Associate Professor of Psychology and Neural Science at New York University and director of the Social Cognitive & Neural Sciences Lab. He received his Ph.D. from Tufts University and was on the faculty at Dartmouth before coming to NYU in 2014. His research focuses on how we perceive other people, such as how we categorize others into social groups, infer their emotion or personality via facial cues, and more generally how we understand and react to our social world. His work examines the cognitive and neural mechanisms underlying person perception, stereotyping and decision-making in social contexts. He takes an integrative, multi-level approach that makes use of several techniques, including functional neuroimaging, computational modeling, and behavioral paradigms. He is also the developer of the data collection and analysis software, MouseTracker. Dr. Freeman is the recipient of a number of awards, including the National Science Foundation CAREER Award, the Janet T. Spence Award for Transformative Early Career Contributions from the Association for Psychological Science, the Early Career Award from the Society for Social Neuroscience, the SAGE Young Scholars Award from the Society for Personality & Social Psychology, and the Early Career Award from the International Social Cognition Network. His work has appeared in media outlets such as the New York Times, the Washington Post, and TIME Magazine.

    Happiness & Decision-Making

    This episode explores Happiness & Decision-Making with our guest, Dr. Robb Rutledge. We discuss his lab's equation for happiness, the subjective nature of happiness, and how our emotions play a role in decision-making.  Dr. Robb Rutledge has a BSc from Caltech and a PhD in Neural Science from New York University where he worked with Paul Glimcher. He was a postdoctoral fellow at University College London with Ray Dolan and Peter Dayan before joining the faculty of University College London. This summer, his lab moved to Yale University. His lab combines computational models, brain scanning, and pharmacology to study decision making and affective states like happiness in healthy and clinical populations of all ages.

  8. Space, Time & Fear

    Space, Time & Fear

    This episode explores space, time, and fear with our guest, Dr. Dean Mobbs. We explore what 'fear' can be defined as, ecologically valid testing paradigms, as well as the spirit of the academic community.  Dr. Dean Mobbs is interested in the intersection of behavioral ecology, economics, emotion, and social psychology. By understanding the neural, computational and behavioral dynamics of human social and emotional experiences, he wants to develop theoretical models that merge those fields. Using brain-imaging, computational modeling and behavioral techniques, his lab is probing the neurobiological systems responsible for fear and anxiety, revealing how people learn to control their fears, and how anxiety and psychiatric disorders disrupt those processes. He's interested in the value of social behavior. In particular, he's trying to determine the behavioral and neural signatures behind positive social interactions—for example, those involved with altruism, empathy, and when viewing others' success as rewarding (vicarious reward and reflected glory). His research also focuses on the interplay between social interaction and emotion—how fear can depend on whether you're alone or in a group (e.g. risk dilution).
