I plan to put a more detailed statement of my research interests soon. 

My main interests include:

• behavioral ecology and life history theory 
• nonpaternity and paternity confidence 
• HIV/AIDS
• South Africa 
• anthropological demography (esp. fertility and marriage/divorce)
• parental care/investment
• education and schooling outcomes
• kinship
• biosocial anthropology
  

I'm currently working on a project examining HIV/AIDS risk behavior from a life history theory persepctive, and I've just finished up a trilogy of papers relating to confidence of paternity.

For further information on my research, please see my c.v. or my papers. 

Lastly, recent press coverage of my work (NY Times, New Scientist, etc.) can be found here.
