Sofia Forss, Ph.D. is an evolutionary biologist at the University of Zurich, specializing in comparative cognition and animal behavior. She's curious about how curiosity shows up in apes. A fascinating discussion about curiosity and the influence of others, upbringing, and perceptions of risk. What might these findings suggest for apes' close cousins, we humans? I was surprised and intrigued over and over in this conversation. I think you will be as well.
