Hannah Rubin
Hannah is an assistant professor at the University of Notre Dame. Her main research interests are in the areas of philosophy of biology, evolutionary game theory, and philosophy of science. While in Pittsburgh, she will be working on two projects. The first concerns our understanding of how mathematical models give insight into the evolution of social behaviors (e.g. altruism and cooperation). The second looks at how attempts to optimize the efficiency of scientific inquiry may unintentionally further disadvantage already marginalized groups, and also thereby impede scientific progress.
