Dr. Tsipursky will be releasing a new book in 2020 called The Blind Spots Between Us: How to Overcome Unconscious Cognitive Bias and Build Better Relationships. Dr. Tsipursky is a cognitive neuroscientist and behavioural economist and has served for seven years as a professor at the Ohio State University. His thought leadership has been featured in over five hundred articles and interviews across popular media.
Dr. Tsipursky completed his PhD in Behavioural Science from the University of North Carolina Chapel Hill, where he studied the intersection of psychology, behavioral economics, cognitive neuroscience and history in business.
We start by discussing the reason Gleb got into researching decision making and go on to talk about:
- The science that doesn’t support gut decisions
