We are delighted to announce that Dr. Shun Kurokawa, from 大阪大学（The University of Osaka）, Japan, will serve as committee member for the The 1st International Electronic Conference on Games (IECGA 2025), which will be held online from October 15 to 16, 2025)! 🗓️ https://sciforum.net/event/IECGA2025

Dr. Kurokawa has made significant contributions to understanding how persistence in repeated games encourages the evolution of spite and how disbandment mechanisms influence the development of cooperative behaviors. His notable publications include studies on the evolution of spite versus altruism, strategies for cooperation and spitefulness, and the rules that promote cooperative behavior. His work bridges theoretical population biology and behavioral ecology, providing valuable insights into the complex dynamics of social behaviors in biological populations.
