Join us in this episode as world-renowned British anthropologist and evolutionary psychologist Robin Dunbar sits down to discuss the evolutionary, cognitive, and neurobiological foundations of human relationships. Best known for developing Dunbar's Number, Professor Dunbar has spent decades studying how the human brain shapes the size and structure of our social networks, offering groundbreaking insights into friendship, community, and social behavior.
Professor Dunbar is Emeritus Professor of Evolutionary Psychology at the University of Oxford and a member of the Social and Evolutionary Neuroscience Research Group. His research explores the mechanisms behind social bonding in both humans and primates, helping explain why we form relationships the way we do and how social connections influence well-being, cooperation, and group successβ¦
This discussion covers:
The origins and meaning of Dunbar's Number
Why humans can only maintain a limited number of meaningful relationships
What happens when human group size increases
The evolutionary role of friendship and community
Why are human relationships structured the way they are β and what does science reveal about building stronger communities? Listen in as Professor Dunbar shares decades of research on the social brain and the hidden architecture of human connection!
