Brooke A. Scelza (Principal Investigator)
I am an Associate Professor in the Department of Anthropology at UCLA. I received my PhD in Biocultural Anthropology from the University of Washington in 2008. My dissertation work was with the Martu in Western Australia. There I studied parental investment as children were making the transition to adulthood.
In 2009 I shifted my fieldwork to Namibia, where I began working with the Himba. My work there focuses on two main topics, the importance of mother-adult daughter relationships, and the role of "multiple mating" in men's and women's reproductive and parenting decisions. |
