Ray explains how positive and negative emotions can lead to how we make decisions and in some cases emotional states can lead to irrational decisions.
Ray Dolan’s research is concerned with a neurobiological characterisation of human emotion and how it interacts with other components of cognition, particularly attention, memory and decision making. An emphasis in his recent work has been to link brain activity to theoretical models of decision making, particularly models derived from reinforcement learning theory. He is the author of 400 original papers and is ranked as one of the most cited scientists in the world in the field of Neuroscience and Behaviour.
