And you see the bands.

You've probably seen that on like CSI or something.

One battle after another.

Behavioral?

Kind of, yes.

So the department was weird.

It's an interdisciplinary department.

I've always had an interdisciplinary background.

I find it the most interesting and fun way to ask questions.

anthropology and biology undergrad, forensics, forensic biology, master's.

My PhD was at University of Chicago in comparative human development, which had anthropologists, sociologists, biologists, and psychologists, kind of all in one department.

My track within it was behavior biology.

So I was really interested in the biological aspects of why humans behave like we behave, which meant asking a lot of questions about how animals behave, about how humans may have evolved over time.

It was sort of an evolutionary biology kind of track.

I think it was a game, actually.

When I was a kid, probably too young to be playing it, but I remember finding...

A copy of Resident Evil, the original old school Resident Evil 1 and playing that on PlayStation 1 when I was five or six or seven.

No, no, no.

Resident Evil is the zombie game.

It's like the apocalypse.
