Péter Érdi

Our returning speaker, the founder of the Hungarian School of Computational Neuroscience and a professor at Kalamazoo College in Michigan. Following successful books like Ranking, Repair, and Feedback, Péter Érdi’s latest research explores how the now-lost art of nuanced thinking can support everyday decision-making. He is especially interested in how, in our polarized world, we might build bridges instead of fences. Come and join the conversation with him about why not every answer can be simple, and how we can discover new perspectives in our thinking.
