The Neuroscience of Habits and Decision Making

Join us for an enlightening workshop that delves into the fascinating neuroscience behind our daily choices and routines! 🤔✨

In this Growth Lab Live session, we’ll discover how our brains generate behavior and why some actions feel deliberate while others occur on autopilot. 🧠🚀

What to Expect:

• Explore the Learning Systems: Understand the distinct learning systems in the brain which influence planning, skill acquisition, and habit formation.
• Persistent Habits: Learn why habits are resilient, why willpower can falter, and how behavioral patterns evolve over time.
• Decision-Making Mechanisms: Examine the tension between competing systems that shapes our everyday choices.

By deciphering these decision-making processes, you’ll be equipped to design your environments and habits in a way that aligns with your brain’s natural learning mechanisms, leading to better clarity and control over the patterns in your life. 🌱💡

Meet the Speaker:
Hernando Martinez, a prominent neuroscientist, specializes in how the brain learns and forms habits. With an impressive background in biotechnology and developmental biology, they leverage a systems-level perspective to explain how decisions are crafted by neural circuits. Hernando has conducted research at esteemed institutions like the European Molecular Biology Laboratory and the Sainsbury Wellcome Centre, focusing on the neural computations that drive our learned behaviors. 🧬🔬
