Here are a few of my current research projects.

Formal Models of Science:

Using mathematical models, I investigate the social structure of academic communities and its effect on knowledge production, focusing on issues related to diversity and when well-intentioned policies backfire.

Inclusive Fitness and Social Behavior: 

My work also addresses foundational issues regarding the best evolutionary framework to explain social behaviors and how insights from biology can shed light on human social structures. For instance, inclusive fitness is an influential framework in biology which is used to study the evolution of social behaviors, such as cooperative or altruistic behavior. There has been an intense debate over the status of the inclusive fitness framework. My work attempts to understand the explanatory value of inclusive fitness (as well as other measures of fitness) for evolutionary theory and where the disagreement in the debate really lies.

Experimental Economics in Philosophy:

My colleagues and I use methods from experimental economics to investigate philosophical questions. Currently, our research centers around the evolution of language and the emergence of inequity.

Genetics in Evolutionary Game Theory: 

Evolutionary game theory is often viewed as a 'phenotypic' approach to studying evolution, meaning that models generally only take into account the observable traits of organisms (their phenotypes) and ignore possible effects of genetics. My research challenges the common, and often implicit, assumption that this ‘phenotypic gambit’ will be a safe bet in evolutionary game theoretic models.
