In the first part of my presentation, I will present a series of studies that fuse computational neuroscience, microeconomics, and game theory to systematicall

y explore the neurobiology of decision making in both non-social and socially loaded environments. Firstly, I will set the basis by unfolding behavioral and 

neuronal parameters predicting individual decision-making in risky environments. Subsequently, the presentation will expand to the social domain and explore 

how computational approaches can explain learning mechanisms of competitive and cooperative actions, social influence and trust. 

On the second part, I will present more recent work and a future program examining the impact of urbanization and Mega-Cities on human behavior, 

cross-cultural interactions and psychology. I will finish with a call for the establishment of a multi-disciplinary network of Asian-based researchers aiming in the 

improvement of mental health via a better understanding of the interaction between the built environment, culture and human neurobiology.
