<\/a><\/p>\nThe\u00a0upcoming\u00a0Foundations of Utility and Risk Conference<\/a>\u00a0(FUR 2018) is being held\u00a0\u200bat the\u00a0University of\u200b\u00a0York, UK from Monday 25 June to Thursday 28 June.<\/strong><\/p>\n FUR conferences<\/a>\u00a0were started in Oslo in 1982 by Ole Hagen and Maurice Allais, and have been held every two years since. It is a highly prestigious conference with many distinguished presenters and participants. Each year FUR invites abstracts for presentations and posters on any topic related to risk, and, more generally, decision theory.<\/p>\n We are writing to you now as the deadline for the second round of submissions – Tuesday the 1st of May – is approaching fast. The first round has already passed – we had almost 200 submissions and we have accepted a sizeable majority of them. The programme is filling up nicely. We will communicate decisions on the second round by the 7th of May, in time for you to register before the early registration deadline of the 14th of May (after which registrations go up from \u00a3300 to \u00a3400 (full) and from \u00a3200 to \u00a3300 (student)), and also in time for you to take advantage of pre-booked hotel rooms offered by our Registration Agency, Mosaic (available up to the 10th of May). There will be a third round of submissions opening on Thursday 8 May and closing on Monday 21 May, with decisions communicated by Thursday 31 May – but this will be too late to register at the lower fees. We advise you to submit soon.<\/p>\n \u200bWe have distinguished plenary speakers: Lara Buchak (UC Berkeley), Ido Erev (Technion – Israel Institute of Technology) and Ariel Rubinstein (Tel Aviv University, New York University) as well as our ‘Rising Star\u200b’ Terri Kneeland (University College London). There will also be Round Table discussions on specialised topics chaired by: Ani Guerdjikova (University of Grenoble Alpes): Ambiguity in Dynamic Interactions: Can Economists Give Precise Advice with Imprecise Probabilities?; Paulo Natenzon (Washington University in Saint Louis): Attention: Limited?; and Wlodek Rabinowicz (Lund University): Dynamic Decisions beyond EU.<\/p>\n We are trying to make the conference as interdisciplinary as possible, with economics, philosophy and psychology being covered by the invited speakers. Other disciplines, related to the conference theme, will also be welcome.<\/p>\n You can\u00a0register now<\/a>\u00a0for the conference, and find out more about\u00a0submission of abstracts online<\/a>.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" SUBMISSION DEADLINE MAY 1, 2018 The\u00a0upcoming\u00a0Foundations of Utility and Risk Conference\u00a0(FUR 2018) is being held\u00a0\u200bat the\u00a0University of\u200b\u00a0York, UK from Monday 25 June to Thursday 28 June.
