I primarily write about topics in psychology, with a focus on human intelligence, cognition, and learning. Drawing on my graduate training in primatology, I also explore the behaviour and cognition of non-human primates.

About Sapiens Lara

My curiosity about the evolution of behaviour and cognition led me to pursue a Master’s degree in Primatology at the University of Girona in Spain.

I have worked on projects related to human intelligence, behaviour, and cognition in Australia, Canada, and Mexico. I have also collected behavioral data from wild spider monkeys in Mexico and moor macaques in Indonesia.

I also have a research interest in the cognitive effects of psychedelics, particularly psilocybin.
