"Ricardo Gil-da-Costa"Bio:
Ricardo Gil-da-Costa holds a Masters degree in Marine Biology and a Ph.D. in Biomedical Sciences - Cognitive Neurosciences.
In the last 10 years his pursuit of how the mind and brain work led him to behavioral field studies in Africa and Central America and laboratory research from Harvard University to the National Institutes of Health.
Currently, he is a Research Associate at the Salk Institute for Biological Studies in La Jolla CA., where he is developing and using non-invasive brain imaging systems on different species. His research has been distinguished with multiple awards, such as the Donald B. Lindsley Prize for Behavioral Neuroscience, and has contributed seminal findings on the evolutionary and neural foundations of human cognition and language.
