Her contribution on strong theoretical work together with her potential impact for the field show a robust and generative framework to develop the evolutionary human sciences, especially regarding the evolution sensitive periods that have a large impact on human development.

Don’t miss out a brand new episode of @cognitations.bsky.social where they discuss with @manvir.bsky.social about the social lives of human populations in the past 🤩🤓😎😉
🎙️ EP #19

Think our ancestors lived in a state of "primitive communism"? New research reveals our deep past was far more complex than the "noble savage" myth suggests.

@adigitaltanay.bsky.social & Jay explore this & much more with @manvir.bsky.social
