Nathaniel J. Blanco's research examines decision-making and exploratory behavior, including how people (from children to older adults) balance exploring new options versus exploiting known ones, and how factors like framing, aging, and brain-based (dopamine-related) processes influence these choices. The work also touches on learning and memory, and more recently includes applied work on screening tools for pediatric seizures.
Publication output was moderate and variable from 2017-2020, then slowed considerably from 2021 onward, with several years showing zero or one publication.
