Information

I am a postdoctoral researcher on the Culture of Schooling Project and a research associate on the Geography of Philosophy Project.


I received my bachelor's degree in anthropology from the University of Buenos Aires and my Master's and Ph.D.degrees in anthropology from the University of California, Los Angeles. My work and interest are related to experimental philosophy, developmental cognition, and cultural evolution.


I've been doing fieldwork in South America for the last eight years. Between 2013 and 2015 I worked in the north of Argentina with WichĂ­ populations, where I studied folk theories of ethnicity. Since 216, I've been doing fieldwork in the Ecuadorian Amazon rainforest with Shuar and Achuar communities studying folk ontologies, epistemic concepts, and the development of folk biology and social norms. More recently, I've been focused on COVID-19 and the spread of mis- and misinformation globally.
