Its next to “Theatre in the park”.

The main talk will be:

Fun and Games with Cognitive Biases / Gal Hochberg Exploring and brainstorming cognitive biases, how to recognize them, how to avoid them and how to use them to win. Based on an NYC LW meetup session.

A rump session is (to those unfamiliar with the concept): Each participant will give a 4-minute talk (+3 minute encore if we applaud hard enough). Giving a talk isn’t mandatory, but it’s highly recommended. Not confident that what you have to say is relevant to our interests? Unsure about your public speaking skills? Doesn’t matter—in the rump session, anything goes.
