Dr Beki Hooper is a researcher at the University of Exeter, who specialises in understanding relationships both in non-humans and humans from an evolutionary and cognitive perspective. She is also interested in the intersection between science, philosophy and ethics. She has worked on various science outreach projects and thinks it’s really important that we work towards a more inclusive academia. Beki is also a published poet, whose work is often informed by the topics she researches. In her spare time, she can almost always be found playing outdoors (usually somewhere on Dartmoor).
