  Tuesday, November 30, 2010, 4 p.m.
  
  Mason Hall, Johns Hopkins University

  Jeffrey D. Schall, Ph.D.
  E. Bronson Ingram Professor of Neuroscience
  Vanderbilt University
  
  
  ON THE SELECTION AND CONTROL OF BEHAVIOR

  Dr. Jeffrey Schall  will review what his laboratory has learned about how the brain chooses among alternatives, produces goal-directed actions and evaluates the consequences of those actions.  Beyond an improved understanding of brain function and behavior, the implications of these and related results for an neurally-informed theory of action will be discussed.  The goal of this theory is to reconcile intentional reasons with neural causes.
