This conference talk explores how collective behaviors emerge from individual decisions in complex systems, focusing on evolutionary game theory, network dynamics, and self-organization principles. Delve into the fascinating mechanisms behind cooperation across biological scales—from cellular interactions to human societies. Learn how network structures influence decision-making processes and how individual choices scale up to create population-level phenomena. The presentation examines the organizing principles that lead to the evolution of cooperation, drawing insights from biological communities, mathematical modeling, cognitive science, social network dynamics, and behavioral economics. Part of the "Decisions, Games, and Evolution" program at ICTS Bengaluru, this talk bridges perspectives from biology, cognitive science, economics, and physics to foster interdisciplinary understanding of decision-making across all scales.
