Amazingly good paper, showing that algorithms do better than doctors in deciding whether to test for heart disease, and that the reason lies in cognitive biases on the part of doctors (including representativeness).

[Dr. Fadi A. Makki @makkifadi]

Other key takeaways: More is needed to behaviorally inform regulation & encourage voluntary reformulation. More is needed to start early and build capacity of key stakeholders to help them think about the many opportunities to bring behavioral science for greater social impact

[Dr. Fadi A. Makki @makkifadi]

Great session!
Using nudges in stadia to promote healthier options for fans is one way to go, but there is more to behavioral science than just doing that …
