Rui Diogo's short Bio: Associate Professor at the Howard University College of   Medicine and a Resource Faculty at the Center for the Advanced Study of Hominid   Paleobiology of George Washington University. He was one of the youngest researchers   to be nominated as Fellow of the American Association of Anatomists, and won several   prestigious awards, being the only researcher selected for first/second places for best   article of the year in the top anatomical journal, two times in just three years   (2013/2015). Single author or co-author of more than 100 papers in top journals such   as Nature, and of numerous book chapters, he is the co-editor of five books and the sole   or first author of thirteen books covering subjects as diverse as fish evolution, chordate   development, human medicine and pathology, and the links between evolution and   behavioral ecology. One of these books was adopted at medical schools worldwide,   "Learning and understanding human anatomy and pathology: an evolutionary and   developmental guide for medical students", and another one has been often listed as one   of the best ten books on evolutionary biology in 2017, "Evolution driven by organismal   behavior: a unifying view of life, function, form, mismatches, and trends".
