Lisa Faessler
Hello!
My name is Lisa Faessler. I am a researcher in the field of cultural evolution and human behavior.
I am currently doing my Ph.D. in Management with Charles Efferson at the University of Lausanne in Switzerland. I am part of the Organisational Behavior department and a member of the PaceLab.
My research
My research focuses on the gene-culture coevolution of human social cognition and behavior, along with applications related to human health and well-being at work. I use lab experiments, evolutionary modeling, and econometrics techniques to better understand social learning mechanisms and the consequences on the aggregate level.
In my current work, I investigate the link between culture and fitness in Switzerland and the potential for applied cultural evolution to help prevent communicable and non-communicable diseases.
