The Emergent Neuroscience of Social Hierarchy: How the Brain Navigates through Socio-Hierarchical Environments

The symposium aims to clarify the effects of rank, status, class and power on information processing when people navigate socio-hierarchical contexts. We explore the contributions of state-of-the-art neuroimaging for ongoing debates in social hierarchy literature, and we observe how the human brain works when people are embedded in socio-hierarchical environments.
