Dr Lisa DeBruine

I am a Reader in the Institute of Neuroscience and Psychology at the University of Glasgow and I run the Face Research Lab with Professor Ben Jones.

My research focuses on kin recognition, facial resemblance and face processing. Specifically, I am interested in how humans use facial resemblance to tell who their kin are and how people respond to cues of kinship in different circumstances. I am also interested in how the visual system learns about faces and what visual adaptation effects can tell us about the face processing system. I have published more than 100 papers in peer-reviewed journals on these topics.

I was recently appointed to the Royal Society of Edinburgh's inaugural Young Academy. I am a Council Member for both the international Human Behavior and Evolution Society (HBES) and the European Human Behaviour and Evolution Association (EHBEA). I received the HBES New Investigator Award in 2002 and the Early Career Award in 2012.

After completing a Master's degree in Biology in 2000 at the University of Michigan, I completed my PhD in 2004 in the Daly-Wilson Lab at McMaster University's Department of Psychology, Neuroscience and Behaviour and in 2006 completed an NSF International Fellowship at the University of St Andrews, working with David Perrett.
