Our research investigates the big questions we ask ourselves as humans: How do we tackle challenges like poverty, racism, disability discrimination, and war?​

Our research examines how we operate as humans: from how we speak and how we think, to how we work and play, and even how we die.

Our research deepens our understanding of ourselves, our past and present, to help create positive changes for the future.​
