Profile
“I think therefore I am” (cogito ergo sum). Everyone knows these words by Descartes. His method was based on reasoning and doubting. Doubt came first. We can rephrase it as “I doubt therefore I think therefore I am” (dubito ergo cogito ergo sum). We borrow this as a motto for our lab. Doubt comes first, as a scientific method and as subject for investigation. We wonder and inquire about perception and decision-making in complex or ambiguous situations. We study doubt with doubt. So there can be only one name for our lab: Dubito.
Decision-making? A core question for neuroscience：
One of the primary goals of cognitive neuroscience is to develop linking propositions between perception and action. Confronted with multiple sources of information, we have to choose one of several alternative courses of action. This process is called “decision-making.” To study the brain mechanisms for decision-making, we use a multidisciplinary approach, including neurophysiology, psychopharmacology, and behavioral analysis. In behavioral experiments we aim to characterize the cognitive processes of perceptual sensitivity and response bias. In neurophysiological and psychopharmacological experiments, we investigate how these cognitive processes are brought about in the brain.
Approach and objectives：
We study "The Doubt Function" in all its guises: How uncertainty and volatility influence perception, attention, emotion, motivation, learning, memory, and decision making.
Our focus on the doubt function proceeds from a basic science perspective (cognitive science) and from an applied science perspective (bioethics, tending toward empirical bioethics).
We aim to improve the bioethical reasoning and praxis with respect to the use of animals in research: Toward a scientifically and ethically motivated approach to reevaluating, revising and optimizing the use of animal models.
We integrate cross-disciplinary perspectives in Psychology, Neuroscience, Philosophy, and Arts and Letters, particularly with a view to making cognitive neuroscience relevant to the humanities. In the parlance of C.P. Snow, we move back and forth between "the two cultures," working toward their mutual enrichment.

The affective value of dopamine prediction error
2019.4 - 2020.3
Japan Science and Technology Agency
Authorship：Principal investigator
The aim of this project is to examine the relationship between dopamine prediction-error signals and concurrent evaluative processing through fMRI. Particularly, in evaluative decision-making tasks, predictive cues about upcoming items may influence the subsequent evaluation process. However, it is unknown how the dopaminergic processing relates to affective value in this situation. Some researchers have suggested that the affect resides in prediction error, whereas others have suggested that the affect resides in the anticipation. The present fMRI project aims to disambiguate these possibilities by exploiting conflict paradigms to zoom in on the relation between dopaminergic activity and evaluative processing.

In this theme, we investigate the principles of subjective evaluation. From ancient times, it has been thought that subjective likes and dislikes are merely a personal matter that cannot be understood with logic. In Latin, there is the famous proverb, "De gustibus non est disputandum." However, this may not be true. In fact, we can approach our subjective choices as the output of a complex system that combines many factors. Then, we can try to investigate systematically which factors can influence the evaluation: from expectation to familiarity, and from physical salience to inherent structural complexity. Thus, we aim to uncover the hidden logic of subjective likes and dislikes.

Effects of Context and Framing on Choosing Food Products: Combining Behavioral and Psychophysiological Data to Predict Consumer Decisions
2015.4 - 2016.3
Kyushu University
Authorship：Principal investigator
Human decision-making is often influenced by the way in which choice options are presented. Though context and framing effects have long been studied in a variety of decision-making situations, the underlying principles have remained difficult to elucidate. This difficulty is naturally due to the inherent complexity of real-life situations, where various factors combine to produce variable patterns of results. The same context may affect the same person in a different way depending on accidental elements, such as whether a certain piece of information appears in the person’s field of view. Here we argue that, to make the decisions more tractable, it is essential to focus on the dynamics of the choice processes. Our working hypothesis is that the combination of behavioral tracking and psychophysiological measurement produces reliable estimates of the decision-maker’s internal state, particularly with respect to the level of attention and the emotional response toward different items. For instance, an increased amount of attention, combined with a positive affect, would predict a choice in favor of the product under consideration, whereas an increased amount of attention, combined with a negative affect, would predict a rejection. In this project we focus on food choices, and examine the effects of context and framing (e.g., varying the cultural cues, or the amount of additional information about price, caloric content, etc.). We hypothesize that the susceptibility to context and framing effects may show a dynamical pattern, depending on the subjects’ cognitive and cultural characteristics but also depending on their internal or motivational state (e.g., shortly after a meal). In our project, we aim to find out which people are susceptible to which kinds of context and framing effects. With such knowledge, it may be possible in future to design strategic campaigns to promote people’s health by protecting them against harmful contextual influences.

ラット海馬における「自己」と「他者」の空間表現のメカニズム
2012.4 - 2014.3
日本
Authorship：Principal investigator
ラット海馬における場所ニューロンは、ラット自身（自己）の実験環境内における空間認知（位置の認識）に用いられていると考えられており、認知地図仮説の神経科学的根拠となっている。しかしその認知地図が実世界の事象を完全に表現するためには、これらの場所ニューロンが同じ環境内を移動する「他者」の行動を観察した際にも同様の活動特性を示してしかるべきである。本研究は、他者の行動に対するラット海馬の場所ニューロンの活動特性を明らかにし、海馬領域の空間認知に関するミラーシステムとしての可能性を検討することを目的とする。

Deliberative decision making in rats International coauthorship
2010.9 - 2013.8
United States of America, Scotland, & Japan
Authorship：Coinvestigator(s)
Deliberation entails the transient consideration of potential consequences of actions so as to determine the best choice. Rats, monkeys, and humans have all been found to deliberate over difficult decisions, particularly when faced with uncertain or newly-learned contingencies. Recently, we and other labs have found direct evidence for representations of potential future events in rats that behaviorally appear to be deliberating over decisions. However, the mechanisms by which deliberation aids in decision-making, the mechanisms by which choices are selected to be considered, and the relationship between deliberation and other categorizations of decision-making are all still unknown. From a psychological perspective, non-deliberative decisions can be described as ones that are made rapidly, and don't require elaborative cognitive processing. Deliberative decisions, in contrast, are slower, require more cognitive processing, and involve more uncertainty. From a neuroscience perspective, we can tackle this distinction explicitly: do deliberative and non-deliberative decisions depend on different brain circuits? If so, then these two types of decisions represent distinct classes of neural and cognitive events. If not, decision-making may be a single process that differs in the amount of processing involved within the same neural circuit.
Deliberative decision making is an internally-generated process based on covert variables and thus its mechanisms cannot be studied through standard behavioral neuroscience techniques. This means that a scientific study of deliberative decision making will require a combination of techniques drawn from different disciplines. Our project is the first venture of this kind, combining large ensemble neural recording (Redish), lesion and inactivation (Wood and Dudchenko), complex behavioral analysis and small ensemble neural recording (Lauwereyns), and the mathematics of dynamical systems (Tsuda). -

Prof. Lauwereyns teaches general and advanced courses in the areas of psychology, cognitive science, and bioethics. He is closely involved in the design and implementation of the new School of Interdisciplinary Science and Innovation, for which he created the cross-disciplinary area of "Humans and Life", pulling bioethics to the foreground as one of the interdisciplinary research themes. Prof. Lauwereyns, an established writer and essayist as well as a cognitive scientist, aims to integrate his expertise in empirical studies and the humanities (literature, philosophy), both in teaching and in writing science books about decision making and bioethics.

Edge Special #6 世界を自分の場所とするために ヤン・ローレンス （放映時のコメントより抜粋）「見るという行為を司る神経の動きと脳の働き。認知神経科学者であるヤン・ローレンスの研究テーマである。ローレンスは現在、ニュージーランドのビクトリア大学准教授として教鞭をとっている。その一方でローレンスは、ヨーロッパで注目を浴びている詩人でもある。認知神経科学と詩。一見、かけはなれた両者は、ある接点で結ばれている。かつて暮らした日本で過ごすローレンスの研究と詩作から、詩が持つ本質の一端に迫る。」 TV or radio program
