Michael P. Lombardo

My current research interests include the evolution of sports, the evolution of throwing by humans, and digit ratio and the athletic behavior and performance of women student-athletes at Grand Valley State University.

I'm also interested in the evolution of social behavior, especially cooperation, in non-human animals and humans, and the behavioral ecology of birds, especially tree swallows.
