International Conference on Creativity and Innovation in Decision Making and Decision Support (CIDMDS 2006)

The London School of Economics and Political Science is a major world centre of research and teaching in the social sciences. It has an outstanding reputation, not only in Economics (where five former staff members have won Nobel Prizes), but also in all the Social Sciences and closely related subjects such as Information systems History, Law, Management and Philosophy. LSE's location in central London is central to its identity. Its buildings form part of the skyline of a cosmopolitan capital city, crowded and bustling, rather than part of a peaceful rural campus.

There is a constant interchange of ideas and knowledge between teachers and taught and between the School and the world of many of its studies. Many LSE students and staff come from outside the UK; over half of the students are postgraduates, making LSE one of the largest concentrations of advanced study in its various fields. In its lively variety LSE thrives on an atmosphere of openness to new ideas, discussion and debate.

The LSE Library is one of the world's major collections of social science material – over 3 million items are on open access.

Patrick Humphreys, CIDMDS 2006 conference chair, is Director of the Institute of Social Psychology where he leads the Organisational Research Group at LSE. He is also co-director of the London Multimedia Lab for audiovisual composition and communication
