The neuroeconomics of simple choice

Neuroeconomics studies what are the computations made by the brain in different decision situations, and how are these computations implemented and constraints by the underlying neurobiology. This talk describe recent fMRI, EEG and eye-tracking experiments designed to understand how the brain computes and compares values during simple decisions, like choosing between an apple and an orange. www.rnl.caltech.edu
