Armin Schulz

Armin Schulz is an interdisciplinary researcher investigating what we can learn from linking evolutionary biology and the cognitive and social sciences. His particular focus is on the evolutionary pressures on representational decision-making, both with a view towards cognitive psychology and economics. He regularly teaches classes in cognitive science, philosophy of social science, and philosophy of science.

Increasing the diversity of our field is an urgent priority. If you are interested in graduate study with me, please feel free to send me an email.

I am engaged in a joint project, funded by the John Templeton Foundation, on internal conflicts in collective agents in biology and economics: collective agents in biology and economics. This work is a collaboration with Arvid Ågren (Cleveland Clinic), Manus Patten (Georgetown University), and Martijn Schenkel (University of Groningen). We are currently recruiting a postdoc to join in this work. The ideal postdoc will have expertise in economics or philosophy or both, especially with quantitative approaches therein, and will have a keen interest to work across disciplines in this multi-disciplinary project. Please see collective agents in biology and economics or contact me for further information!
