Pate Skene is a Lecturer in the Department of Psychology and Neuroscience at the University of Colorado. His research focuses on the intersection of social cognition, genetics, and neuroscience, particularly examining how neural mechanisms and social behaviors influence decision-making in legal contexts and primate societies. He has contributed to studies on juror bias, forensic testimony validity, and the genetic underpinnings of social behavior in primates.
Skene's work spans diverse areas including the molecular basis of nociception, epilepsy, and the evolution of primate microbiomes. He employs integrative approaches combining genomic sequencing, behavioral analysis, and neuroimaging to explore topics such as social network formation in macaques and the role of specific genes in social attention.
His publications span over three decades, reflecting a career dedicated to understanding the biological and cognitive foundations of human and animal behavior. While no specific grants or advising roles are noted here, his extensive article output underscores a prolific and interdisciplinary research agenda.
