Dating Lab NYC presents:
Dating the Dead: What Makes a Connection Real?
Dating Lab NYC is a monthly interactive discussion series exploring the psychology, culture, & technology shaping modern connection.
Each gathering combines a research-informed presentation, open conversation, an anonymous audience survey, & time to connect with other curious New Yorkers.
This month, we'll explore connection on & off the dating apps: what makes it feel real, & how technology shapes what we seek from one another.
The conversation is inspired by For Human Use, a novel by Sarah G. Pierce, who will join us as a special guest speaker. Sarah will share the inspiration behind her book & how she explored questions of dating & connection through her story, bringing her perspective into our discussion.
We'll wrap up with a book giveaway & author signing, alongside time to meet & connect with fellow attendees.
No need to read the book in advance. Come curious.
Presented & facilitated by Becky Berg
Becky is a behavioral researcher with a master's degree in clinical psychology from Columbia University. She has studied romantic relationships at Columbia's Couples Lab & NYU's Love Smarter Lab & now conducts independent research on dating-app users & how technology facilitates modern connection.
