Dr. Puts studies the neuroendocrine and evolutionary bases of human sexuality and sex differences, with special focus on behavior and psychology. His research topics include the influence of sex hormones on psychology, behavior, and anatomy; hormonal and genetic influences on sexual differentiation; sexual selection and the evolution of sex differences in voices, faces, bodies, brains, and behavior; the development and evolution of variation in sexual orientation; and the evolution of female orgasm. In this episode, we talk about some of the major topics of Dr. Puts’ research. First, we discuss sexual selection and how it is essential to learn more about the evolution of human sexual dimorphism. We then talk about sex differences, focusing on the brain and cognition. We also refer to some of the main lines of evidence that point toward a biological basis for these differences. We also go through the biological foundations of sexual orientation, as well as current hypotheses for the evolution of female orgasm. -- Follow Dr. Puts’ work: Faculty page: http://bit.ly/33Et4Da Behavioral Endocrinology and Evolution Lab: http://bit.ly/2z2eCa3 ResearchGate profile: http://bit.ly/2KOYbDv Google Scholar profile: http://bit.ly/2Mj0DEn -- A HUGE THANK YOU TO MY PATRONS/SUPPORTERS: KARIN LIETZCKE, ANN BLANCHETTE, SCIMED, PER HELGE HAAKSTD LARSEN, LAU GUERREIRO, RUI BELEZA, ANTÓNIO CUNHA, CHANTEL GELINAS, JERRY MULLER, FRANCIS FORDE, HANS FREDRIK SUNDE, YEVHEN BODRENKO, SERGIU CODREANU, ADAM BJERRE, AIRES ALMEIDA, BERNARDO SEIXAS, HERBERT GINTIS, RUTGER VOS, RICARDO VLADIMIRO, BO WINEGARD, VEGA GIDEY, CRAIG HEALY, OLAF ALEX, PHILIP KURIAN, JONATHAN VISSER, DAVID DIAS, ANJAN KATTA, JAKOB KLINKBY, ADAM KESSEL, MATTHEW WHITINGBIRD, ARNAUD WOLFF, TIM HOLLOSY, HENRIK AHLENIUS, AND JOHN CONNORS!
