- Physiological Markers and Their Impact on Decision-Making PerformanceGiacomo Belloni
The Decision Science Summit gathers researchers and industry practitioners around one question: how people and intelligent systems can make better decisions when it really matters. Organised by the Decision Science Alliance, the 2026 edition was hosted by the Universidad Politécnica de Madrid on 18 and 19 June, under the theme of human–AI collaboration for real-world decision-making. The academic stream, the 4th DSA International Summer Conference, ran alongside a corporate stream for leaders in applied AI and operations research, so the conversation moved easily between theory and practice.
At the Escuela Técnica Superior de Ingenieros Industriales, Captain Giacomo Belloni presented the study Physiological Markers and Their Impact on Decision-Making Performance on behalf of HUMAI Research. The work looks at what the body shows while decisions are being made under pressure, and at how physiological signals recorded in demanding training scenarios can help explain changes in decision-making performance.
Sharing the research with such an interested and participative audience was an exciting and rewarding experience. The discussion that followed, with its stimulating exchanges and thoughtful questions, made the event especially meaningful.
