Key research interests include human evolution, warfare origins, dietary adaptation (cooked food), and the paradox of human tolerance/violence. He has authored influential books like *Demonic Males* (1996), *Catching Fire* (2009), and *The Goodness Paradox* (2019).
- Leads long-term chimpanzee behavioral studies
- Explores evolutionary links between primates and human social structures
- Investigates conservation challenges in Ugandan rainforests
Recent research highlights include studies on chimpanzee aggression patterns, hormonal impacts of social status, and the role of positive social interactions in aging. His work bridges primatology, anthropology, and conservation biology.
