Where Vegans Go Wrong | Dr. Shawn Baker & Dr. Diego Caleiro

Diego is a biological anthropologist who delves into the evolutionary aspects of human diversity, incorporating elements of Darwinism into his research.

His particular specialty, which formed the foundation of his PhD, is the study of altruism. Diego's work aims to bridge the understanding of how evolutionary factors influence altruistic behaviors across different populations, enriching the field of anthropology with a deeper examination of biological and cultural intersections.
