Скачать или смотреть The mind within the brain -- how we make decisions | David Redish | TEDxUMN

This talk was given at a local TEDx event, produced independently of the TED Conferences. Are we really free to choose? In this talk, David Redish explores the decision-making processes within the brain and tries to understand how, sometimes, those decisions go wrong.

He was trained in computational, theoretical, and experimental neuroscience and has contributed to our understanding of decision-making and cognition. Dr. Redish received a dual-degree BA in the writing seminars (poetry, plays) and computer science from The Johns Hopkins University, and his PhD in computer science from Carnegie Mellon University. He did postdoctoral work in neuroscience at the University of Arizona in Tucson. Dr. Redish's research seeks to understand how our different learning, memory, and decision-making systems interact to produce behavior. Dr. Redish has published dozens of articles in scientific journals, as well as two books, most recently The Mind within the Brain: How we make decisions and how those decisions go wrong.

About TEDx, x = independently organized event In the spirit of ideas worth spreading, TEDx is a program of local, self-organized events that bring people together to share a TED-like experience. At a TEDx event, TEDTalks video and live speakers combine to spark deep discussion and connection in a small group. These local, self-organized events are branded TEDx, where x = independently organized TED event. The TED Conference provides general guidance for the TEDx program, but individual TEDx events are self-organized.* (*Subject to certain rules and regulations)
