What is DR@W Forum?
DR@W Forum is an interdisciplinary discussion series which focuses on theoretical and empirical research about decision making.
The usual structure of the forum is a 30 - 45 minute introduction of the topic/working paper, with ample additional time for discussion.
The audience prefers discussing work-in-progress topics as opposed to finished papers. We meet on Thursdays between 2:30 and 3:45pm during term time. Contact John Taylor (John.Taylor[at]wbs.ac.uk) if you would like to suggest a speaker for a future event. Notifications of upcoming DR@W Forum events along with other decision research related activities can be obtained by registering with the moderated Behaviour Spotlight email list.
DR@W Forum (Hybrid Session) - Andrea Isoni (WBS), Lukasz Walasek (Psychology), Daniel Sgroi (Economics)
The first DR@W Forum of 2022/23 will be an introduction to the re-launched Behaviour, Brain and Society (BBS) Global Research Priority (GRP).
The BBS GRP brings together academics from a wide range of disciplinary backgrounds to foster Warwick’s research on behavioural science topics of societal interest. It includes researchers from Economics, Psychology, Warwick Business School, Warwick Medical School, the Warwick Manufacturing Group and beyond. In addition to supporting DR@W, the GRP does a lot more to raise the profile of Warwick’s behavioural science community both locally, nationally and internationally.
The GRP funds behavioural science events throughout the year including both DR@W and the SONA pool and we think that this introductory session will be of particular value to new members of research staff, including PhD students, who may be unaware of the GRP, where DR@W fits into the overall picture and the potential research funding opportunities that the GRP may offer them.
During this informal session, the GRP leads will explain how the GRP works, how you can become a “theme lead”, and what the GRP can do to support your research, including providing direct funding for experiments or other activities.
This is a great opportunity for networking across departments and a fantastic opportunity to share your views and help shape the GRP’s future.
Pizza, cake and tea and coffee will be provided in the foyer from 2.00 pm . The main session will begin at 2.30pm.
