Jessica C. Flack is a data scientist, evolutionary biologist, and professor at the Santa Fe Institute .
Education and career
[ edit ]
Jessica Flack attended Cornell University for her undergraduate studies and graduated in 1996 with a Bachelor of the Arts (Honors Degree). She received her PhD from Emory University in 2003, where she studied cognitive science , animal behavior and evolutionary theory . Following her Ph.D. she moved to the Santa Fe Institute as a postdoctoral fellow,[1] and studied complexity science, collective behavior, and robustness from 2004 to 2007.[2]
In 2011 she moved to the University of Wisconsin, Madison to help found and direct the Center of Complexity & Collective Computation in the Wisconsin Institute for Discovery .[3] Following her work in Wisconsin, she went back to the Santa Fe Institute and, as of 2022, works there as a professor. Flack also acts as the director for the Collective Computation Group at SFI, and serves as the Chair of Public Events.[2] She performs much of her research in collaboration with co-director David Krakauer .[4]
Research
[ edit ]
Flack is known for her work connecting the behavior of individuals to group activity.[5] She has used animals, particularly macaques monkeys, to examine group behavior.[6] [7] Flack's early work examined social rules within chimpanzees.[8] Her work with macaque revealed that fights within a group improve group's ability to make decisions,[9] [10] a process Flack calls collective computation.[11] She has also used macaque to examine conflict resolution[12] and social structure.[13]
