A lab that explains decision making and the ability to read other people's minds as computations performed by the brain.

Computational Cognitive Neuroscience (Affiliated Unit) is a unit affiliated with RIKEN, run by Affiliated Professor Hiroyuki Nakahara (Learning Theory and Social Brain Research Team) and Wataru Sato. The Nakahara Lab studies the brain mechanisms that produce adaptive behavior and the computational principles behind them. It focuses in particular on "decision making and learning" and on "social intelligence," which matters most in everyday life. The lab pursues experiments and theory in parallel. In experiments, it works with human fMRI; in theory, it works on computational models of the brain, brain-inspired intelligence, and techniques for analyzing brain data.
