This episode explores Happiness & Decision-Making with our guest, Dr. Robb Rutledge. We discuss his lab's equation for happiness, the subjective nature of happiness, and how our emotions play a role in decision-making. 
Dr. Robb Rutledge has a BSc from Caltech and a PhD in Neural Science from New York University where he worked with Paul Glimcher. He was a postdoctoral fellow at University College London with Ray Dolan and Peter Dayan before joining the faculty of University College London. This summer, his lab moved to Yale University.
