26th YEARLY NVG MEETING in Egmond aan Zee

The next, and 26th annual meeting of the NVG will be held 28 Nov. – 30 Nov. 2018, in Egmond aan Zee.

We are happy to announce that the speaker for the 2018 Brill-Baerends lecture will be Prof. Sarah Brosnan.

Sarah Brosnan is Professor of Psychology, Philosophy and Neuroscience at Georgia State University and holds a visiting professor position at the Michale E. Keeling for Comparative Medicine and Research, MD Anderson Cancer Center. She studies the evolution of decision-making behavior, using an experimental economic approach to compare responses across multiple species, primarily in non-human primates and human adults and children. A major focus of her work is how individuals decide in what situations and with whom to cooperate, particularly in situations in which they receive a different outcome from a social partner. She is a Fellow of the APA and SESP and has published in Nature, Science, PNAS and Current Biology and is funded by NSF, NIH, the National Academies Keck Futures Initiative (NAKFI) and the Templeton foundation. In 2009, she was named one of the 150 most influential alumni in the 150 year history of her alma mater, Baylor University.
