博客來David V. Smith is an Associate Professor of Psychology and Neuroscience at Temple University, where he directs the Neuroeconomics Laboratory and serves as Associate Director of Temple’s Brain Research and Imaging Center. After earning his Ph.D. in Cognitive Neuroscience from Duke University in 2012, he completed a postdoctoral fellowship at Rutgers University-Newark and launched his lab at Temple in 2017. His research examines the neural mechanisms that support social and economic decision making across the lifespan, with particular interest in how people evaluate rewards, respond to incentives, and cooperate with others. Combining neuroimaging, computational modeling, and transcranial electrical stimulation, his work aims to advance basic understanding and inform translational applications in clinical and policy contexts. His research has been supported by the National Institute of Mental Health, the National Institute on Drug Abuse, and the National Institute on Aging. At Temple, he teaches courses on sensation and perception, decision neuroscience, behavioral economics, statistics, and functional neuroimaging. He has been named a Rising Star and a Fellow by the Association for Psychological Science. In addition, he has received Temple’s Psychology Honors Excellence in Mentoring Award as well as the College of Liberal Arts’ Presidential Faculty Award for excellence in teaching and mentoring. Finally, he also serves as an Associate Editor at Collabra: Psychology and is an active peer reviewer across leading journals in psychology, neuroscience, and decision science.
Patricia L. Lockwood is a Professor of Decision Neuroscience and Wellcome Trust/Royal Society Sir Henry Dale Fellow at the University of Birmingham, where she directs the Social Decision Neuroscience Lab (www.sdn-lab.org). She was previously a Junior Research Fellow at Christ Church, University of Oxford, and a Medical Research Council Fellow at the University of Birmingham, University of Oxford and the University of Zurich. She holds a PhD in Psychology from University College London. Her lab investigates social learning and decision-making across the lifespan and in neurological and psychiatric disorders using a mixture of computational modelling, behavioural measures, self report, patient studies, and neuroimaging. Prof. Lockwood combines frameworks from psychology, economics, ecology, and decision neuroscience to capture how, when, and why people learn and make choices that have consequences for themselves and other people. She holds multiple nationalities (British, Portuguese, Brazilian), she is a Fellow of the Association for Psychological Science, and a member of the Women of the Future Network.
Dominic S. Fareri is an Associate Professor of Psychology at Adelphi University where he directs the Fareri Lab for Social Learning and Decision-Making. He is also the Director of Undergraduate Psychology and Neuroscience at Adelphi University. He received his Ph.D. in Psychology at Rutgers University-Newark in 2013, and completed his postdoctoral training at the University of California, Los Angeles and Columbia University in 2015 before joining the faculty of Adelphi University in 2015. His lab investigates how the social environment becomes integrated into value-based computations supporting decision-making. Implementing functional neuroimaging alongside behavioral and computational approaches, his research draws on frameworks from psychology, cognitive neuroscience, decision neuroscience to characterize how day-to-day social contexts change our decision-making and our subjective experiences of rewards. His work has been supported by the National Institute of Mental Health and the National Science Foundation. He serves on the editorial board for Social Cognitive and Affective Neuroscience, Imaging Neuroscience and Scientific Reports.
