We are excited to announce that in January 2017, we plan to hold our first WINTER SYMPOSIUM! If you are an early career researcher and your research broadly falls under social learning and cultural evolution, then this will be a great opportunity to see what others in related fields are doing, and to help us in our aim of continuing to build a network of young social learning researchers. The meeting will be a full Read more…
We are online! Let me give you a warm hello and welcome to our brand new YSLR website AND this great new mailing list.

We are early career researchers (Masters, PhDs, Post-Docs) with a diverse background spanning from archeology, biology and physics to psychology and philosophy. Our aim is to get to know each other and to get in touch with our individual projects, give feedback and insight but also facilitate future cooperations (you would be surprised how many people work on Read more…
In a world, where communication happens more and more online it is almost a prerequisite to have an online representation. Here is ours! Thanks to the support of JohnWatt Hosting we now have a website as well as a mailing list, which we will activate soon. Research in social learning, traditions, and cultural evolution is rapidly increasing. It is a hot topic. We look forward to debates and discussions on your projects, your views on the Read more…
A quick introduction Hi, I’m Marco. I recently started an initiative to connect young researchers (Masters, PhDs, Post-Docs) from diverse backgrounds (spanning from archaeology, biology and physics to psychology and philosophy), whose work broadly falls into social learning and cultural evolution.
