Description
Everyday we're faced with a multitude of choices - some big, some small. We look at the information available to us, and make a decision. How is this process completed in the brain? Networks of brain areas process the competing information and integrate them to make a decision. Understanding the neural mechanisms of how information flows across brain areas in integral to understanding the neural underpinnings of cognition.
