Thursday, January 23, 2014
4:00–5:00 p.m.
Social Science Plaza A, Room 2112

In evolutionary ecology and socioeconomics alike, a fundamental issue is how organisms deal with uncertainty, and the complementary roles of spatial and temporal strategies.  This lecture will explore such strategies, with a focus on exploration vs. exploitation, and on search in heterogeneous environments.
