Risk Taking and the Brain

This term’s topic of the popular St Hilda’s ‘Brain and Mind – from concrete to abstract’ series of workshops is “Risk Taking and the Brain”, with particular emphasis on risk taking in adolescence. Dr Mark Walton (University of Oxford), Dr Kathrin Cohen Kadosh (University of Surrey) and Professor Hilary Greaves (University of Oxford) will address this topic from the point of views of neuroscience, psychology and philosophy, respectively. There will be a break with refreshments.
