Research interests
Having a scientific background in molecular biology and biochemistry, I have been interested in the synthetic theory of evolution to date. In my PhD project under the supervision of Anne Kandler and Laurel Fogarty, I will apply theoretical approaches of evolutionary genetics to develop mathematical and computational models of cultural evolution that unveil the adaptation of cultural traits in human beings.
