Discover the power of choice The Center for Neuroeconomics at New York University is one of the preeminent institutions for the study of decision making and the brain. The Center brings together faculty and students from NYU’s world-class departments of Neural Science, Economics and Psychology in classes, seminars and research groups. Working with techniques ranging from single neuron electrophysiology to traditional experimental economics to functional brain imaging, more than a dozen research groups at NYU seek to understand the neurobiological basis of choice.
