Academic Achievements
  • Published papers on evolution and information processing; taught R courses (2004, 2006, 2010) and a group selection course.
Research Experience
  • Works at Santa Fe Institute; research areas include the evolution of multicellularity and eusociality, information processing in an ant colony, costly signalling, the evolution of language, and the origin of evolution.
Background
  • Research interests include evolution and information processing. Mainly focuses on the study of biological evolution, particularly changes in the evolutionary process, the origin of life, the origin of multicellularity, the origin of social behavior, and the origin and maintenance of sexual reproduction.
Miscellany
  • Also interested in physical limits on communication and combinatorial game theory (e.g., domineering).
