We constantly interact with others – in person, on-line, sometimes also in our heads. Yet many philosophical and experimental accounts still focus on isolated individuals. We combine perspectives, methods and most uniquely people coming from philosophy, cognitive and computational neuroscience, to examine interactive and integrative intelligence : when and how interactions transform the way individuals otherwise perceive and decide. Extending these interests, we look at interactions between humans and AI, and how the science of science communication can integrate collective, interactive perspectives and measures.

New paper by lab member @slawa_loev out in Emotion Review (https://journals.sagepub.com/doi/10.1177/17540739221104464 free access). Project: showing not only that emotions make us smart by accident but that we have a suite of emotions that productively guide us in our intellectual pursuits!
New paper arguing that the remit of emotions extends well into the intellectual realm. So if you thought that "reason" is doing the heavy lifting when you do smart things (I'm looking at you, philosopher friends), think (or feel) again.
