Rui Diogo is Associate Professor at Howard University and Resource Faculty at the Center for the Advanced Study of Hominid Paleobiology of George Washington University (GWU). Multiawarded researcher, and a wonderer and wanderer, he is globally renown for his multidisciplinary approach to address broader biological and anthropological questions and discuss, as well as try to address, their societal implications, particularly related to racism, misogyny, and misleading quests for 'purpose' and 'progress'. One of the most read and cited authors within these fields, and a usual presence in documentaries, TVs, newspapers, interviews and plenary talks worldwide, he is the author of more than 150 papers and about 20 books, including one adopted at medical schools worldwide, "Learning and understanding human anatomy and pathology", and one often listed among the ten best evolutionary books in 2017, "Evolution driven by organismal behavior".
Fellow of American Association Anatomists
