I have some brilliant news to share! I recently received a DFG-funded Emmy Noether 6-year grant to establish my own group in Germany. I will soon be looking for a PhD student and a research assistant to join the team and investigate how the balance of power is maintained in animal societies.

🚨Are moral judgements biased by the gender of the subject?
We find *no* direct effect when looking at Reddit!

Our causal study design is based on carefully matching similar situations that people with different genders experience (and share).

How do group interactions shape the world? Collective behavior isn’t just one-to-one—it’s synergy. New research by T. Robiglio, F. Battiston & colleagues shows how higher-order interactions drive emergent effects.

Synergistic Signatures of Group Mechanisms in Higher-Order Systems
A new study of complex systems supports a growing trend that focuses more on analyzing a system's collective behavior rather than on trying to uncover the underlying interaction mechanisms.
