Research Interests
My main research interests lie in the evolutionary forces shaping the distribution of cognitive skills across vertebrates. So far, I have been working with several species (including humans) to better understand the relative contribution of social and ecological factors to the evolution of complex cognitive skills, the effects of social flexibility on cognition, and the distribution of prosocial and cooperative skills across taxa. I am also highly interested in innovation and social learning, and how these vary both within and across species. At the moment, I am focusing on three main topics: (i) the distribution of cognitive skills across ungulates, (ii) the emergence of empathy, and (iii) the role played by dominance style in the emergence of specific behavioural patterns and cognitive skills, with a special focus on moor macaques (Macaca maura). My research approach combines behavioural observations and strictly controlled experimental procedures, both in the wild and in captivity. Thanks to the long-term collaboration with several scholars around the world, I am also working on topics like memory (and collective memory), psycholinguistics and Neo-Whorfian effects, the role of language and culture in shaping human behavioural diversity, and conservation.

Training and Experience
Present | post-doc researcher at the Institute of Biology, University of Leipzig, and at the Department of Primatology, EVA-MPI, Leipzig, Germany, financed by a 3-year DFG research grant. During this time, I will investigate the ability to innovate in primates. In particular, I will investigate (i) inter-specific differences in innovative behaviour across closely related species, as a result of different dominance styles, and (ii) intra-specific differences in innovative behaviour, as a result of inter-individual differences. Crucially, this project will include both captive and wild primate populations. |
