I am a computational social scientist interested in the science of culture and the culture of science. I am specifically interested in how culture shapes emotion and knowledge production. My research brings together cultural evolution, historical...
I study how experience shapes perception, and how learners handle situations that differ from their training. My work spans species and senses, from humans to dogs and from hearing to smell. I received my PhD in Neuroscience and Cognitive Science at the...
I am an archaeologist and geochemist who explores the role of fire in human evolution by combining proxies, concepts, and methods from various disciplines with archaeological data. I am particularly interested in the relationship between hominins,...
I am a behavioural biologist and my research is driven by a fundamental question: how and why do animals communicate?
To answer this question, I investigate communicative and behavioural systems from comparative, ontogenetic, and adaptive perspectives. I...
Laura’s research integrates comparative functional morphology, biomechanics, and evolutionary modeling to study landmark functional transitions in primate forelimbs. In particular, Laura aims to characterize the evolution of the hominin forelimb from an...
Dylan studies regulatory and functional DNA variation modulating development of the human musculoskeletal system, particularly postcranial joints. Through the integration of comparative, computational, and functional genomics, Dylan aims to identify...
Leo is a neuroscientist who received his PhD in Biomedical Engineering at Johns Hopkins University, where he focused on utilizing functional neuroimaging to understand how the human brain performs complex movements such as playing a musical instrument...
