This lecture is the second part of a series on Evolutionary Game Theory and the Evolution of Cooperation presented by Christian Hilbe at the International Centre for Theoretical Sciences. Explore how cooperation emerges across biological scales from cells to societies through the lens of evolutionary game theory. Delve into the organizing principles behind cooperative behaviors in both genetically hardwired organisms like bacteria and cognitively advanced animals that must make survival-impacting choices. The lecture is part of the "Decisions, Games, and Evolution" program that brings together biologists, cognitive scientists, economists, and physicists to foster interdisciplinary understanding of decision-making processes. Learn about evolutionary game theoretic models, the effects of inequalities and biases in social dilemmas, cultural evolution, eco-evolutionary dynamics, and cognitive aspects of decision-making in this comprehensive 91-minute presentation.
