Daniel L. Goroff is Professor of the Practice of Mathematics and Associate Director of the Derek Bok Center for Teaching and Learning. In addition to his degrees in Mathematics (Harvard BA-MA '78 and Princeton Ph.D. '83), he earned an M.Phil. in Economics at Cambridge University as a Churchill Scholar. His education concerning decisions, games, negotiations, and social choice also includes working for the President's Science Advisor in the White House Office of Science and Technology Policy.

Howard Raiffa, a pioneer in developing decision and negotiating analysis, is professor emeritus at Harvard Business School and the author of "The Art and Science of Negotiation." He has extensively taught decision making to students of business, public policy, law, and medicine.

David Dumas is a third-year graduate student in Mathematics, currently working on Riemann surfaces and 3-dimensional hyperbolic geometry. With experience as a course assistant for Math 101 (Sets, Groups, and Topology) and volunteering in the Math Question Center, he has a specific interest in teaching mathematical concepts and reasoning to a wide audience.

Brian Wong is an undergraduate at Harvard College concentrating in physics who is also interested in game theory and normative models of rational behavior. He is excited to be involved with this course because it should be a fascinating exploration of decision-making in a variety of situations.

Kevin Haninger is a fourth-year Ph.D. student in Health Policy who has broad interests in decision theory, risk analysis, and ethics. His current research explores methodological and ethical frameworks for valuing health. Kevin has previously taught courses at Harvard in decision theory, health policy, ethics, and medical history.

Daniel Hojman is a second year graduate student in Economics. He's currently working in game theoretical models which apply to the study of the evolution of social conventions, institutions and individual preferences. His research interests also include formal political science and economic development. He's enthusiatic about exploring the power and limitations of rational choice and game theoretical approaches to problems in different fields.
