PD Dr. Philipp Gunz is a prominent paleoanthropologist and Research Group Leader (W2) at the Max Planck Institute for Evolutionary Anthropology in Leipzig, Germany, where he leads the Cranial Evolution and Development research group. He has held this position since 2015 and is also a Fellow of the Max Planck School of Cognition since 2019. Additionally, he has been a Lecturer in the Department of Anthropology at the University of Vienna, Austria, since 2001. Dr. Gunz's research focuses on the evolution of human development through the study of growth patterns and morphology in humans, fossil ancestors, and primate relatives. He is a specialist in virtual reconstruction of fossils and the statistical analysis of shape using geometric morphometrics. His work explores various aspects of developmental and evolutionary shape changes in living and fossil primates, with particular emphasis on the evolution of the face, teeth, bony labyrinth, and brain. One key research focus is the evolution of the brain and its endocranial imprint in the skull, where changes in endocranial shape observed in the hominin lineage may be linked to evolutionary changes in brain organization. His recent publications demonstrate a consistent focus on comparative analyses of cranial morphology across hominins, with particular attention to Neanderthals versus modern humans. His work integrates multiple approaches including virtual reconstruction, geometric morphometrics, and interdisciplinary collaboration with neuroscientists, geneticists, and archaeologists to tackle complex questions about human evolution that cannot be addressed through fossil evidence alone. Dr. Gunz has supervised numerous PhD students whose work has significantly contributed to paleoanthropology, with graduates spanning from 2009 to 2023. His research has been supported by substantial funding, including a 6 million euro grant for the Evolution of Hominoid Brain connectomics project since 2019, demonstrating the significance and interdisciplinary nature of his work.

• Anthropology of Islam
• Morality and Subjectivity
• Healing Practices
• +۷ مورد دیگر

Dr. Johan Rasanayagam serves as a Senior Lecturer in the School of Social Science at the University of Aberdeen, a position he has held since joining the department in 2005. His academic profile centers on anthropological engagements with Islamic thought, drawing from extensive fieldwork in Uzbekistan and Morocco to explore questions of morality, subjectivity, and religious experience in post-socialist contexts. His primary research areas include the anthropology of Islam, morality and subjectivity, healing practices and spirit possession, and the dynamics of religion and secularism in Central Asia and North Africa. Rasanayagam has pioneered a post-secular anthropological approach that recognizes Islamic traditions as vital resources for understanding human experience, particularly in contexts of jinn possession and healing. Examining his publication record, a clear trajectory emerges: sustained focus on Central Asia (especially Uzbekistan) and Morocco, with recurring themes of state-society relations, the politics of culture, and the interplay between Islamic traditions and modernity. His work consistently bridges empirical fieldwork with theoretical innovation, contributing to debates on secularism, ethics, and anthropological methodology. Within the University of Aberdeen, Rasanayagam teaches core anthropology courses at both undergraduate and postgraduate levels, including Introduction to Anthropology, Anthropological Theory, and Religion, Power and Belief for the MSc Anthropological Research program. Although specific grant funding and student advising details are not documented in the provided materials, his teaching responsibilities demonstrate active contribution to the department's academic community.
