Project Members
The Human Generosity Project is a cross-disciplinary project co-directed by Lee Cronk and Athena Aktipis, with project members spanning the disciplines.
By working closely together, our team of anthropologists, psychologists and computer scientists capitalize on important synergies. Together we build models, design experiments and develop plans for fieldwork to better understand the conditions that facilitate human generosity.
