I am a biological anthropologist interested in developmental biology, human evolution, and health. My group’s research explores developmental influences on adult biology and health, the psychobiology of human fatherhood, non-genetic forms of biological...
I'm interested in how brains evolve. Our lab uses canines to study breed-specific behaviors. We also use existing non-human primate data to investigate neuroanatomical differences that might contribute to cognitive/behavioral differences between species.
I'm an evolutionary biologist and biomechanist. My research uses techniques and principles of biomechanics, anatomy and physiology, and evolution to study the effects of physical activity and aging on the musculoskeletal system, with particular focus on...
The basic question I study and teach —why does the human body look and function the way it does— requires an evolutionary perspective because nothing in biology makes sense except in the light of evolution. An evolutionary approach to human anatomy and...
I seek to understand how the human body acquires and utilizes energy, and how past changes in energy budget have shaped human evolution. Within the past decade, it has become clear that energy metabolism depends on complex interactions between diet...
