I am a philosopher and historian of biology. I study foundational issues in biology using a combination of theoretical biology, modeling and philosophical analysis. I also work on the history of evolutionary theory and genetics. My main focus recently has been on issues related to cultural evolution and in particular the evolution of human sociality. I am currently the Director of the Inter-University PhD Program in the History and Philosophy of the Life Sciences supported by the Council of Higher Education and Yad Hanadiv. I am currently the President of the Israeli Society for the History, Philosophy, and Sociology of Science.
