Bio

Fabian Tatai has joined the lab as a PhD student in September 2022.

He is working on the „The Adaptive Mind“ project.

Research Interests

In my research, I aim to apply computational modelling to gain new insights into human decision-making in various settings, with a focus on naturalistic scenarios, which I try to realize experimentally through methods like virtual reality and motion tracking.
