Darren J Edwards, Ph.D., is a researcher exploring intersections between philosophy, behavioral/cognitive science, mathematics, and evolution. In the field of human behavior, Darren has created unique evolutionary game theoretical, and quantum mechanical accounts of consciousness, that help explain AI evolution and prosocial behavior. This approach can help allow morality, empathy, trust, and social norms to evolve which promotes social cohesion in both people as well as artificial life. Darren recently developed ACTing Minds (an ACT-based computer game). Darren also regularly blogs in Psychology Today.
Darren's lab fosters research in acceptance and commitment therapy, drawing in on multi-disciplinary approaches. Darren's lab also explores hypergraph networks and mathematical modeling.
