The central themes this year are "Reward and Punishment, Gambling and Addiction, Compulsion and Motivation, and Pleasure and Anhedonia”, i.e. the underlying molecular mechanisms in the healthy brain and what goes wrong in the diseased or affected brain.
2017 Brain Prize Winner Ray Dolan as keynote speaker
Professor Ray Dolan was awarded The Brain Prize in 2017 for his analysis of brain mechanisms that link learning to reward, which has far-reaching implications for the understanding of human behaviour, including disorders of decision-making in conditions such as gambling, drug addiction, compulsive behaviour and schizophrenia’.
The Brain Prize Winner visit is supported by The Brain Prize.
