I am a biophysicist focusing on the application of methods from physics to the study of evolution, with a current emphasis on brain morphometry. My contributions to CZ will be centered around these topics, but below, I provide a broader list of topics to which I might add contents. If you are up to work on one of those, feel free to drop me a line to initiate joint action. In case you find no match, you may have more luck with the lists of music psychology topics, biology topics, core articles, special pages, most linked pages or most wanted articles. More information about me can be found via my lab page, papers, CV, blog and band.
General topics

- Cryopreservation: A process where cells or whole tissues are preserved by cooling to low sub-zero temperatures. [e]
- Disease: A condition of the body in which one or more of its components fail to operate properly, resulting in disability, pain or other forms of suffering, or behavioral aberrations. [e]
- Earth: Please do not use this term in your topic list, because there is no single article for it. Please substitute a more precise term. See Earth (disambiguation) for a list of available, more precise, topics. Please add a new usage if needed.

- Environmental economics: The study of economic costs and benefits of environmental policies. [e]
- Ethnomusicology: The study of music in its cultural context. [e]
- Evolution: A change over time in the proportions of individual organisms differing genetically. [e]
- Evolutionary biology: The study of the origin and descent of species, as well as their change, multiplication, and diversity over time. [e]
- Evolutionary medicine: The study of diseases from the point of view of human evolutionary biology [e]
- Evolutionary psychology: The comparative study of the nervous system and its relation to behaviour across species. [e]
- Force: Vector quantity that tends to produce an acceleration of a body in the direction of its application. [e]
- Fossils: A naturally preserved record of ancient life. [e]
- Function: Please do not use this term in your topic list, because there is no single article for it. Please substitute a more precise term. See Function (disambiguation) for a list of available, more precise, topics. Please add a new usage if needed.
- Health: The default state of an organism under optimal conditions, a state characterized by the absence of disease and by the slowest natural rate of senescing. [e]
- Language: Please do not use this term in your topic list, because there is no single article for it. Please substitute a more precise term. See Language (disambiguation) for a list of available, more precise, topics. Please add a new usage if needed.
