New article by @KruRyno where he shows that facial dominance predicts intelligence. Children expect dominant-looking individuals to be "really smart." Less consistent in these data was a gender stereotype about intelligence.

Congratulations to our new #NASmembers and welcome to the Academy!
Come work with Ratan! He is doing some of the most exciting work in visual neuroscience right now. And Georgia Tech is such a vibrant and exciting place (ok, I may be a little biased).
Thinking about my #Emory Class of 2014 Commencement keynote from the late Hon. Congressman John Lewis, in which he told our melting crowd in that Georgia sun to go out and be bold, find beloved community, get in the damn way and most of all: get in real good trouble.
I could not possibly be more excited to announce that in Summer 2025, I'll be joining the Department of Psychological and Brain Sciences at UMass Amherst (@PBSamherst) as an Assistant Professor in the Cognition & Cognitive Neuroscience Area.

Frans de Waal was an incredible colleague and friend. His work was groundbreaking, and many of us at Emory felt his constant support, even after his retirement. He will be missed. RIP Frans.
We lost an incredible human being. Thank you Professor de Waal, Frans, for making the world a significantly wiser place. We will continue the quest. https://t.co/rFb5CzJAjt
