The main focus of the department is building and testing theories and computational models of neural processing, with a particular emphasis on decision-making, learning and representation. This covers the ways that humans and other animals come to choose appropriate actions in the face of rewards and punishments, and the ways and goals of the process by which they come to form neural representations of the world. The models are informed and constrained by neurobiological, psychological and ethological data.
