In addition to the existing technological innovations such as artificial intelligence and machine learning, a new segment called behavioural economics is coming up which is nothing but decision-making. It is important to understand human behaviour in your decision-making process and thus, become a multi-disciplinary decision-maker.”

Dr. Ruttuja More, HOD, Psychology said, “I am enthralled to attend this memorable event. According to the World Health Organization, mental health is one of the most neglected areas of public health. Close to 1 billion people are living with mental disorders. Yet, relatively few people around the world have access to quality mental health services. In these circumstances, events like this would certainly help people release stress.”

The event was a huge success and the energy which was incorporated in organizing proved worth it. This event will carry some of the fondest and most prized memories for the future.
