Newsletter 36: Dec 20, 2010

Subject: Last CDS newsletter of 2010

With the end of the semester, the CDS Newsletter is going on hiatus for the holidays and will restart next January.  For those of you who want to get started early on a New Year’s resolution to not miss any great seminars next semester, we list some talks below that we expect to be particularly interesting.  Hope you have a great holiday and a happy and healthy New Year.

 

 

The Decision Making and Negotiations (DNA) Cross-Disciplinary Area at Columbia Business School will be hosting a series of lectures by prominent decision researchers.  Locations and talk titles are still to be determined:
